Know About Our Faculty Miss Iohnson recently took flying lessons at the University of Iowa. Before taking up the teaching profession, Mr. Krause worked for a time with the Wisconsin State Highway Department. In the good old days, Mr. Starkey drove a horse and buggy to high school. See what you boys are missing? Following the old Oregon trail the Galaskes took a tour through the West, and while on the coast, saw the Pacific fleet in action. Miss Hartwick attended a summer school in California and from there made a trip to Mexico. Miss O'Neil took a trip to New York recently, and was much impressed by Radio City. Miss Parks spent her last summer as an instructor in a carrlp for underprivileged children, while Miss Ramthum worked for a commercial art concem. Several years ago when there were still Blue Birds Over the White Cliffs of Dover, Mr. Hnderson took a trip abroad. He spent five weeks in Sweden and then went on down into Central Europe. It seems as if Coach Landsverk and Mr. Sandin have tastes about the same when it comes to trips. Mr. Sandin went on a camping trip near the Canadian border. Mr. Landsverk made a ten day fishing trip which took him into Canada. Hround the time that Hitler was rising to power, Mr. Kessler made a trip into Central Europe. He could have attended a meet- ing at which Hitler was speaking, but he was advised not to, be- cause at times riots broke out and often many people were hurt. Um-m there's something about a uniform! Miss Quilling at- tended the graduation exercises at Hnnapolis. Miss Hill took a trip through some of the Eastern states. Hmong the many places she visited, some of the outstanding places were Boston, West Salem, and Mount Vernon. Miss Skinner taught Math in Turkey for some time. Miss Boelte took an Hlaskan cruise several summers ago. When she was a child in grade school, Miss Kellerman went riding with Madame Schumann-Heink. Mrs. Reinhard made a trip to Quebec and among the many places visited, the Citadel was most outstanding. While the rest of us were probably very uncomfortable in the summer heat of Iuly 4, 1986, Miss Greenhalgh was bundled up for winter weather at a ski toumament in the Colorado moun- tains. -e- ui... ,1--,-I g ,... 1 ,.g-1 ft 1-14' -. -, ,.-- ,.. .1 - .,.- L.. 5 -- ,- -L ,. -1 ...- I :.- 'Ill .f llll' ., ,. . ,tm -- ..- .1 ...

Does it sound like it? Mr. Runkel sang with a double quartet in college. Way back when, Mr. Bordsen used to play several musical instruments over the radio. While We're on the subject of years gone by, Mr. Ioseph was Big Chief of the Kick-a-poo clan in col- lege. Talk about your thrills, the little burro Miss Schoenicke was riding down one of the mountains in Zion National Park, decided to turn around in the middle of the path and go in the opposite direction. The path, by the way, was just wide enough for the burro's feet: with a rock wall on one side and on the other a drop of several thousand feet. Miss Maclnnis took an early interest in annuals: in fact at the age of six weeks her picture appeared in the Lawrence annual, where her father was a junior. Miss Griffith's most thrilling experience was slightly on the breathless side. Her first ride on a mule was down the steep perilous ledges of Grand Canyon. On a trip to Pikes Peak, Miss Roberts and a former faculty member, wandered away from the crowd to try to get back to the cars. They started to take a short cut and got lost. Miss Gruner has spent a summer session in the Oxford Uni- versity in London. Hround the same time Miss Ott took a 250- mile bicycle trip through England and Scotland. Here's an inspiration for you. Mr. Roeck payed his school fees at college, and his board and room, all on a S15 a month job. Miss Kreuziger and Miss Sauer were both former students of the Watertown High School. Oh, for the life of a seaman! Our own Mr. Iohnsen used to be a sailor on the Great Lakes, while Mr. Keller spent part of his earlier days as a lumberjack. 'Way back in 1938 H. D. the Herreids made a trip 'through the Southern states. One of the high spots was Mammoth Cave. Mr. Wills caught the largest trout in Wisconsin a few years ago. The fish weighed five and a quarter pounds. By the way, he won first prize of a fifty-five dollar fly rod on it. Both Miss Vestling and Miss Flaherty were on the high seas at the time the recent war broke out. Miss Vestling was coming from Norway and Miss Flaherty was on her way home from South Hmerica. She was on a German liner and was forced to stay in the custody of the German navy for several weeks. Miss Plowright's first job was that of swimming teacher at 75 cents per half hour. C145
