Teachers Prove All 'Round Talent The faculty again entertained the student body in their yearly claim to athletic prowess. Post-season hockey and basketball faculty-varsity games were a highlight of the year. The faculty members also played an exciting game with the WDGY Wonders, sponsored by the Lettermen. Students, however, found the partici- pating faculty members even more entertaining the fol- lowing days, as they displayed their after-effects of the previous games. Faculty members also coached various sports, advised classes and clubs, and chaperoned school functions, besides carrying their usual class load. Their help and advice and willing hands were appreciat- ed. What do you mean everyone's gone? JONES, DARWIN, Librarian. KING, CHARLES, Bus. Ed. If r , yy ! KODADA, BARBARA, Phy. Ed.
