With two classes in government, two in speech, and one in senior English, she has scarcely a moment to call her own. MR. ROBERT MYGRANTS teaches his United States history classes the importance of understanding the present through knowing the past. Current events, news films, and maps are among the teaching aids he uses. Young and energetic, MR GLEN EBERLY is one of the most popular faculty members. After teaching classes in world history, sociology, and economics, he finds time to sponsor the Lettermen’s Club, to coach the baseball squad, to serve on the Faculty Review Board, and to help out anywhere else he is needed. Senior Dennis Myland is explaining to his government class how the freedom of our American way of life can be traced back to England in 1189. - 13-
