(Upper Left) If you need your ankle taped, your temperature taken, or if it ' s iust a good old cough drop you need, see Miss Celia Smith, the school nurse is the Howe golden rule. Journeying to Room 121, Sherlock found Miss Smith and two home nursing students, Betty Dallas (left) and Barbara Ingersoll in- specting a complete model collection of equipment for a sickroom. (Upper Right) Sherlock found out that the girls who take foods not only learn how to cook, but how to set and to serve the table. He watched while Mary Bragg (left) and Sue Sweeney served lunch to Mrs. Ruth Shepard, Miss Helen Allen, Suzanne Shortridge, and Judy Miller. (Below) Even though Sherlock has traveled extensively and is a well-edu cated man, he learned a great deal from the guiding lights in the Social Studies Department. By creeping in on another teachers ' meeting, he was able to meet (left to right) Mr. Lewis Gilfoy, head of the department, Mr. Wade Fuller, Mr. Russell Curtis, Miss Dorotha Kirk, Mr. Hartwell Kayler, Mrs. Mary Diaz, and Mrs. Hattie Winslow. After the meeting Mr. Gilfoy told Sherlock about the many courses offered at Howe in his depart- ment. These include social studies, world history, U. S. history, American government, sociology, Latin-American history, and psychology.

T loidA dlowoik. Itoutd. (Above) From the gym Mr. Sherlock went to Room 220 where Mr. Seward Craig, head of the English Department, was talking with the teachers in his de- partment. By listening closely to roll call, Sherlock found out the pupils for this session were (left to right) Mrs. Betty Baker, Miss Hildegarde Kuhar, Mrs. Ruth Marie Griggs, Miss Alice Hankins, Mr. Darrell Gooch, Mrs. Mary Ann Elliott, Miss Ellen O ' Drain, Miss Elizabeth Smith, Miss Marthana McWhir, Miss Marjorie Schoch, and Mrs. Margarete Butz. Mr. Craig told Sherlock that be- sides regular English courses, Howe also offers journalism, speech, and dramatics. (Lower Left) A bookworm ' s paradise, stated Sherlock as he stepped into Howe ' s fully equipped library. Janet Lewis and Mrs. Margarete Butz showed Mr. Sherlock some of the newest addi- tions to the collection, and Joy Wilson and Miss Marjorie Schoch explained to him the uses of the card catalog where the 4,000 books were listed. (Lower Right) Sherlo ck, (being slightly baffled) decided he might need a new job when his investigations were over, so he promptly talked with Mrs. Mar- garet Rogofsky, Mr. Wade Fuller, and Mrs. Mildred Loew, Howe ' s employ- ment advisors.

Clnj£ SjuLhviUjA.Wj)dsuw 1 (Above) Sherlock wasn ' t quite sure of the product of 3 times 2; so Miss Anna Sufer showed him how to find the answer on the slide rule. Paul Powell and LaVonne Mannfeld took advantage of the lesson, while Miss Mary McCord watched. Miss Suter explained to Sher- lock that the students in trigonometry used the slide rule a great deal. (Below) While Sherlock looked over the many machines in the metal shop room, Mr. Dennis Wright, teacher, ex- plained that tool making was the main project done by most of the boys en- rolled in metal shop. Here Mr. Wright inspects the work done by Gene Lawr- ence and Jack LeMasters. (Above) But before we can have ad- vanced math, we must have a bit of the fundamentals such as algebra and plane geometry. Bill Schmadeke, sophomore, was copying an angle as Sherlock came into the room. Afterwards he met three of Howe ' s math teachers, Mr. Wilbur Chambers, Mrs. Lucy Henry, and Mrs. Rose Scoles. (Below) Nearly all the office forms, dance tickets, play programs, and some of the publicity pamphlets used around school are printed by the boys enrolled in printing classes. Mr. E. A. Patterson, printing teacher, explained to Sherlock and to Frank Knox, Elmer Summit, and Clifford Melvin how the printing press is operated.
