Mr. Whilmcr, Mr. Miller, Mr. Adams, Nlr. Hazard HISTCDRIANS Since world affairs have become so critical, social science studies have consequently risen in prestige. Teachers in Burnham's social science department are Mr. I. W. Miller, Mr. Edwin Whitmer, Mr. Ronald Adams, and newcomer Mr. John Hazard. Big and quiet Mr. Miller has close touch with both seventh graders and seniors. The reason for this is that he teaches seventh grade history and acts as senior class adviser. Mr. Miller finds his time well-occupied by these duties, in addition to work as assistant principal and business manager of The Sampler. He also is well known in northwestern Ohio educational circles, as he served one year as president of the Northwestern Ohio Teach- ers' Association. Mr. Miller graduated from Bowling Green University with B. S. and M. A. degrees. He has also done graduate work at Duke and Ohio State. Therefore we should have compulsory military training for all men ---and so it goes with Mr. Whitmer's ambitious debate team. In addition to debating, Mr. Whitmer instructs classes in eighth grade civics and senior American Problems and advises the junior Class. The Forensic League, an honorary speech club, has also started its first year here under his able guidance. ' Mr. Adams, a life-long resident of Sylvania, instructs sophomores in World History and juniors in American History. His main extra-curricular activity is sponsoring and ad- vising the National Honor Society. Mr. Adams, an enthusiastic musician, is organist at the Sylvania Congregational Church. He has received A. B. and M. A. degrees for work at the Universities of Toledo and Michigan. 'Ah wants you all to be quiet.' Mr. Hazard begins the day with this or some such remark in his pleasing southern accent, acquired from several years spent in the Southwest before coming to Sylvania. Here his classes are Geography 7 and Civics 8. Mr. Hazard, whose wife teaches Latin and French here, is also freshman football and reserve basket- ball coach. He advises the Freshman Class and the cheerleaders. Mr. Hazard received his education at Mount Union College and the University of New Mexico, earning an A. B. degree.
