Arkansas Dedication The Annual Staff of 1975-76 takes pride in dedicating the WILDCAT to Miss Norma Jean Faulkner. During the past eight years, Miss Faulkner has taught the 5th and 6th grades at Umpire. She guided us through the early stages of our education and pre- pared us for Sixth Grade Graduation and the changing pace of high school. She has also shown her interest in young people by being a Girl Scout leader. It is with a sincere sense of gratitude that we dedicate this annual to her. Miss Norma Faulkner The Annual Staff also takes pride in dedicating the WILDCAT to Mrs. Naida Tyndall. Mrs. Tyndall has inspired us through the last half of our education. During her past six years at Umpire, she has taught Arkansas History, American History, English, and Library Science. When not in the classroom, we could always find her in the library helping students with reports or practic- ing with students on one of the many skits she has written and produced. She has always been willing to give her time to spon- sorship of the YGR’s. We hope the dedication of this annual to her will help to indicate how much we appreciate her help and guidance. Mrs. Naida Tyndall 2 PIKE COUNTY BANK Murfreesboro. Arkansas THE NASHVILLE NEWS Nashville. Arkansas Administration No longer operating out of the county supervisor's office.
