MR. PAULY MR. PEARSALL M MISS REES MISS ROACHE Commercial Commercial English English years. He is also much inter- ested in young people s activi- ties, and has been the adviser of several school organizations. A fine chap, widely liked - Mr. Osborne. Miss PARKS-Creamed shrimp in rice rings, sweetbreads a la Napoli, ham timbales with as- paragus garnish, Chateaubriand of beef, stuffed lobster a la Bechamel, canapes, souffles, chiffonade salad - all are the products of .the Parks kitchen, when that wizard of figures for- gets the class room to try her hand at the production of epi- curean delights. Miss Parks says she likes to cook, and her luscious concoctions bear out her claim, we do well what we enjoy doing. MR. PAULY-The whole show, that's Mr. Pauly, our master of ceremonies at mass meetings. It is no wonder that our boys work CLOTHING Want to see a room bustling with activity? Take a look at the sewing room - when the photographer isn't there. How fast the girls can make those treadles Hy! The pins always tear the flimsy tissue patterns, and the needles disappear along with the llasting thread, but the finished prod- uct is as bewitching and eye-taking as any gown that bears a famous designer's label. so hard to get a letter, when he, as assistant football coach, is sponsor of the NWN Club. This thundering ex-tackle of former championship Waite elevens aids in shaping new champion- ship elevens, and his vocation is his hobby. MR. PEARSALL-Early in the morning Mr. Pearsall is to be seen driving into the school parking space in his Packard. A teacher of bookkeeping and faculty manager of athletics, his is the responsibility of keeping athletic department accounts straight, disposing of tickets, and getting games for our teams. But though from Monday to Fri- day he is on the hunt for games, on week-ends he goes gaming for moose, bear, deer, rabbits . . . . or Whatever he can bag. MISS REES-Books, friendships, and quilts - beautifully pat- terned, quaint old quilts ofa by- MR. RoHLF1Nc mas. scHAENrEtn Science Science gone day - are the particular interests of Miss Florence Rees, teacher of English and an adviser of the Periclean and the Forum Literary Societies. She teaches English, and does it thoroughly, but the teaching of boys and girls is her first con- sideration. Miss ROACHE - Appreeiative chuckles greet the witty sallies of our irrepressible Irish Mary, who, despite her strictness be- hind the classroom desk, proves that the chaperone may be the life of the party. Zetaletheans will tell you that she's as youth- ful and peppy as any of them-- and a decided asset to the English Department. MR. ROHLFING-It is Steve Rohlhng, teacher of chemistry, inveterate hunter and fisher in his spare moments, who intro- duces football prospects to the mysteries of high school grid- iron practice and puts into read-

MISS MOORE MISS MORGAN Commercial History fSocial Science, cestry may be traced back as far back as Adonis, we are sure of Beau Brummel, anyway. A dealer in scientific facts, first aid, uniforms, and then more uniforms, and the producer of creditable baseball nines is our handsome Mr. Mills. Per- haps it is Mr. Mills's scientific thinking that makes ours a win- ning baseball team. You may be sure, however, that it takes real system to be athletic trainer and property manager on the side. MR. MOFFATTiWhCC . . zim!! A flash of a tennis ball and thc whiz of a racquet! You can al- ways count on this versatile gentleman to carry off tennis honors. And gentleman he is, as well as tennis player and tennis coach, a gentleman with the manners of a Chesterfield, the shy diflidence and the kind- ly heart of a Lincoln. MISS MOORE-,Tis just as well MISS NELSON MISS NKWBIRT English English for their peace of mind that students turn in typewritten as- signments to Miss Moore, that personable teacher of short- hand, typing, and business arithmetic, else they could never be certain that their dark- est personal secrets remained theirs to keep. For Miss Mooreis hobby is graphology, the reading of character from handwriting. Miss MORGAN-PCOPIC who play the game of bridge are numerous enough, but those who play a really good game are harder to find. The way this likable counselor of the Zeta- letheans lays down her cards reminds us of the efficient way she teaches history. Miss NELSON-Fording the river to school is everyday rou- tine with Miss Nelsong she even packs her Ford with faculty passengers from the West Side 1. 'W' : A MR. OSBORNE MISS PARKS Industrial Arls Mrnthenzatics . . . . and the Pedagogue Special rolls in exactly on time every morning, so they do say. How- ever, for varietyis sake she takes to rail when she Visits the Rockies, and to boat when she 55 7? does Europe. Miss NEWBIRT-That pleasant lady, Miss Newbirt, has dis- covered the charm of Chaucer for herself and for us as well. And how well she can read his lines! She makes us live vividly life during the 'fourteenth century. Perhaps it is her sense of the dramatic evidencing it- self, for she has a very strong one. When you need help in planning an auditorium skit, ask her for suggestions. MR. OSBORNEZMT. Osborne en- joys anything that has to do with automobiles-particularly the Indianapolis 500-mile speed classics, to which he has made an annual pilgrimage for some HOME NURSING Hurt? ls it a burn, a crushed Finger, a thumping headache, a sprained ankle in need of rebandaging, the appearance of a sudden rash-pe1'- haps even a run in your new hose? .lust call on Miss Gerding or any of her Red Cross helpers, and they'lI fix you up in grand style.

i , l ' 1 I MISS SP.-XYD MR. STEINER HR. STEKLINC MISS TOBIN MISS YVAITE 1 English Snriul Scivlrrff lnzluslriul Arts Jlzillzyam Illuflmmzzzics iness the varsity material of coming years. Mas. SCHAENFELD - Dropping in upon Mrs. Shaenfeld at home, one would expect to find her surrounded by exotic and unusual plants, for she has told her science classes that she is greatly interested in rare flowers and plant-life. MISS SPAYD-Wanted: A new name for Fords. Miss Spayd has gotten as far as Henry VIII, and there is, of course, Elizabeth, but after that, S O S! England, Henry himself, or the official godfather of all Pullman cars to the rescue! However, the head of Waite's English Department seems equal to all demands on her ingenuity Cas witness the original commencement-night dramatization of last yearj and we have faith that she will be equal to the situation when a ninth Ford is stabled in her garage. MR. STEINER-And here is that most popular of teachers, Mr. Steiner, whose classes overflow all housing space assigned him. He is the spiciest of speakers, combining humor with con- structive ideas, as his senior stu- dents and mass meeting audi- ences know. Although he stays up late reading udeteckativei' stories, ta-hal the sleuth never fails, Mr. Jesse Steinerll he's here bright and early to receive the excuses of yesterday's ab- sentees among the freshman boys. Mn. STERLINC1YOu7ll find Mr. Sterling, with hand outstretched for your ticket, at every school affair. He'll get it too, unless . . . . you can beguile him into a conversation concerning his home. Hereas a teacher who carries his classroom practice into his home, which is his par- ticular prideg he built it him- self, you know. Miss TOBIN-HA word to the wise is suflicientf, Sounds strangely familiar, doesn't it, especially to students of - you guess whom! Three guesses! Or is one enough? Right-ol Miss Tobin, teacher of geometry, whose interest in math is so great that she spends even her vacations in studying it. If you would prove yourself a friend, tell her where she can find a new white Persian kitten -- Persian, mind, genuine Persian, and white, nothing but White will do. MISS WAIT!-I-Small in stature, but possessing a remarkable knowledge of equations, angles, areas, and propositions, Miss Waite heads the Mathematics Department-and sits at the high desk in room 214 during home room period. Although tangents, congruent triangles, and hypotenuses are all easy as II to fair-haired Miss Waite, FOODS Um-m-m-l Tantalizing whiffs of freshly baked cake are wafted down the hall from that gourmands' heaven in the south wing, top floor. Here is food that is fit alike for truck driver and king, a delight to the eye and the palate, even while it satisfies a dietitian's fancy. Here home econo- mics students learn to prepare bal- anced menus, to cook them tempt- ingly, and to serve them tastefully.
