Verland Fecht Abe Eddy Clerk Director I if 1 Robert Kersey Treasurer That unsung group of men and women whose stern hands and oft'-tried patience led us to the cap and gown. How long after the names have been forgotten will we remember Don't come cryin' on my shoulder , There is no royal road to mathematics , and that most classic statement of them all: All you need on your desk is a piece of paper and a pencil. In one of the most difficult jobs in the community Mr. Eddy, Mr. Fecht and Mr. Kersey, as members of the board of education, serve as little-known heroes in the history of the school year. Highlighting the year's accomplishments was the publication, for the first time in fifty years, of our school board policies which many schools throughout the state have reque sted.

f '- Mr. Christ in his role as principal. Admaaazmma and dd While the football, basketball and track teams are bringing home trophies, the administrative team of Principal C. A. Christ and Secretary Ann Tibbetts is working daily in a job that is neither seasonal nor prize-winning. Ann's voice over the inter-com and her signa- ture on the countless passes and excuses which travel the building each day are two of the most familiar aspects of a student's life. Mr. Christ's tireless efforts on behalf of stu- dents and faculty alike, keep him ever on the job whether it be at his office desk or officiating in the more pleasant task of crowning the Homecoming queen. A visit to the office during any school day sees both principal and secretary busy in the act of mak- ing Wamego High School one of the leading secondary schools in the state.

S In the midst of a five-year plan to rejuvenate the school building, now in its fifteenth year of use, Dewey Kohler serves as custodian assisted by W, A, Young who recently joined the staff. Long sojourns in the lunch line are amply rewarded each noon by Mrs. Phil Shortt, Mrs. John Kraushaar and Mrs. Maude Rickstrew. Drivers Roy Reiser, Dwight Klink, Louis Lonsinger and Wilfred Eichman oversee early morning trips to school and those mad-cap rides to out-of- town games. The grounds surrounding the build- ing, including the rose garden, of which we are so justly proud, are in the care of Mr. Bob Ince who has served as care taker at Wamego High for many years. i J , r w '44 A1 ' I ' 1 -WAMEGO RURAL HIGH SCHOOL .II .u s .'
