Degree in history from Texas Tech. His Masters Degree, in Anthropology, he also received from Tech. During the war, Mr. Kayser was a Civilian Flight Instructor.

I-LS. was proud to offer a wider curriculum, so that all of the students could be included in various organizations. MRS. J.E. WALLER, Registrar Even if you were new around S. H. S. , one of the first and best friends you would meet would be Mrs. Waller. There are always some of the students looking for her to borrow money, ask advice, or just to talk with this pleasant campus personality. Before coming to Snyder, she taught school in Hominy, Oklahoma. She obtained her B. S. Degree from Northeastern State College at Tahlequah, Okla. Collecting needlepoint and p i tc h e r s sum up her hobbies, but really, her favor- ite pastime is talking about her two sons . Mrs. Waller made this statement about our new building, I'rn anticipating next year's work in the new building, and l'rn sure this will be an inspiration to both students and teachers. i . J
