TEACHERS . . . Knowledge is one of man's greatest treasures. Until it can be presented and interpreted, however, it remains hidden in obscurity. It is therefore the task of our teachers to utilize their skill so that this knowledge may be assimilated by their students. Accordingly then, capable teachers in each of the various departments' at Stadium attempt to make their courses enlightening and challenging. The English department program, placing emphasis on better preparing students of varied ability, included not only regular, but high achievement, ad- vanced placement, and debate classes. Similar to the English, the mathe- matics, science, and foreign language departments offer students an inter- esting variety of courses ranging from business math' to college freshman algebra, from biology to physics, and from Latin to Russian. Keeping pace with the rest, the history department added another high achievement class, American economy, to its various if VELLA BOYLES Home Economics Service Department ANN E BROCKMAN Foreign Language Department Head Adviser Senior Class Adviser TERRANCE R.

Administration 9 enthusiasm boosts school spirit if is ROBERT W- HUNTER HELEN L. SOHLBERG Counselor Counselor ' BOYS' Club Adviser Girls' Club Adviser OFFICE DEPARTMENT . . .To Stadium Students, the main office and its branches, the guidance, attendance, and college counseling offices, hold a place of authority and respect. From these the administrative duties are aptly handled by efficient personnel. If it weren't for Mrs. Tollef- son, our club fund recorder, most activities would have been in a hazardous mix-up these past three years. Mrs. Wetmore, indeed, was invaluable, too, as she was Mr. Hayes' right hand woman and handled reams of neces- sary business. Personal and test records were kept up to date in the guidance office by Miss Sohlberg, Mr. Hunter, and their capable secretary, Mrs. Keizer. All were encour- aged to discuss any problem whatsoever with the counse- lors. Every student probably sought information about their college and post high school plans from Miss Forbes and profited from her wise and experienced assistance. Also, in room 102, a faithful friend of the student, Mrs. Peterson, was kept busy recording attendance information. The school nurse, Mrs. Kizer, performs one of her routine tasks of administering to the sick. EVELYN G. FORBES MARGARET PETERSON College Counselor Attendance Clerk Secertary to the guidance voffice, Mrs. Keizer, and the two office clerks, Mrs. Tollefson and Mrs. Wetmore, keep the office running efficiently. Mrs. Olquist, Stadium's librarian, carefully files books so that they will be easily accessible to students and teachers.

Administration 11 4 in the school curriculum courses of ancient and current history. The two economy classes are unique. Lauded by President Kennedy, sup- ported bythe Federal Government, and televised from 2:30 to 3:00 each day, they are geared to give students a bet- ter understanding of their country's economy, among other things. Phases of the Federal Reserve System and problems of trade are surveyed. In addi- tion rewarding art, home economics, industrial arts and physical education courses encourage students to coordi- nate their mental, as well as physical and creative abilities, better developing them into well-rounded individuals. Without question we have a superb faculty at Stadium. They are more than willing to assist us in any wayipossible, either academically or personally. Sev- eral teachers spend part of their spare time serving as class advisers and di- recting various extracurricular activi- ties. To teachers we owe a great debt, for they are instrumental in laying the foundation for our future lives. ROBERT S. ARPKE English Girls aren't the only ones who can cook.
