.Z in 'FT f,ZEG f'Hfi-T The Crew HE crew of South High School formed one of the most essential parts of the personnel for the ship of adventure. It was the duty of this select group not only to help the students find the knowledge for which they were searching but also to aid them in enjoying a school life well rounded by extra curricular activities. At the head of this faculty was Superintendent R. E. Offenhauer, who had charge of two similar voyages. Each ship had its pilot. Qurs was Principal J. H. Davison, assisted by Mrs. Verna L. Harris. Since early summer our Pilot was busy planning each and every detail for the course to be taken. After each instructor was assigned his specific duties and the passengers of the ship were suitably lodged, the galley set out into the Unknown on another year's quest. At first it was rather rough sailing for the students: but guided by our Pilot into more calm waters, rapid progress was made. ' Every movement instigated by the student body was backed by this group of excellent teachers. ln November, when it was doubtful whether the finances would be sufficient to carry the adventurers safely through the year, the faculty worked hard and played no small part in the passing of a three mill levy. The members of the teaching staff were willing to remain hours after their scheduled work was finished to help the various organizations of the schools to accomplish successfully their purposes and ambitions. The greatest honor is due to the crew for educating the passengers both mentally and physically. But praise just as hearty and deserving must be given to those who developed athletic teams, journalists, expert typists, exceptionally talented musicians and dramatists, and public speakers. Without our efficient coaching staff, the football, basketball, baseball, and track teams could never have made such remarkable records in the athletic field. The girls' physical ability was also brought into prominence by the unceasing efforts of the girls' athletic director. It was through the co-operation of the teachers and students that so many very successful plays were presented. The English Department especially directed its efforts into the line of dramatics and publications. The Commercial Department endorsed the work of many future typists and business experts. Speed and accuracy were developed under the continued guidance of this group. Every teacher was vitally interested in his students. Each was in charge of some special work or club. The crew worked with both the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. in creating a more sincere genuine feeling of fellowship. service, and love. Through the training given in the Musical Department, this year, we heard the best selections that our talent could give. Especially noteworthy was the work of the band, orchestra, chorus, and glee clubs. e Our Pilot, thinking that our knowledge should be increased by outside talent, arranged a Lyceum Course whose numbers were given at suitable inter- valsduring the year. To relieve the monotony of everyday school life, special fmflg L programs were given. motion pictures were shown, and famous speakers ' ectured before the massed personnel of the ship. , A A ,, Therefore, as a token of appreciation for all the good we have reaped X 1 through the training afforded by our crew, we wish to express here our utmost :N X thanks and gratitude.
