The Roo Left to Right: Superintendent R. F. Lewis: Principal J. E. Worthington: Vice-Principal A. O. Rahn. Tain't St. Patrick's Day, but when Superintendent R. F. LEWIS is around, it's Erin-C10-Bragh. Thats what gets him into trouble when someone tells him he HAS to do something. Make way for the Irish! Must have been quite a day for the Green Isle when a boy he kicked out of school, to put it mildly, was elected to the school board. Even with all this, though, he's never broken a golf club-not even over a student's head! Was once bound he'd be a lawyer, but makes speeches to a more critical group than a jury now-us. Got his start in life out at Sun Prairie, from which as a callow youth he went to Beloit and went to enough classes to get a B. A. degree. Traveled up to Madison and toiled there for his M. A. Mr. J. E. WORTHINGTON, principal of Waukesha Junior-Senior High School, wasn't always a principal. He's wielded the hickory stick in a little country schoolhouse that boasted 3-6 pupils! One day during his early teaching experience, he heard a queer noise, and forthwith began to cross- examine the members of the class. Just then a troop of ducks waddled past the door-the laugh was on him! Wishes he could do something about the limited opportunities for high school grads to get jobs. Enjoys reading, motoring, football, and 115 -inch steaks. Received his A. B. from Valparaiso, A. M. from Chicago, and studied further at Columbia. Mr. A. O. RAHN, vice-principal in charge of Junior High, doesn't like questionnaires - no re- marks, anybody! Eats what he catches when he goes after the wily demon of the deep. Teaches general science and keeps Edison and Lincoln buildings running like clockwork fgoocl clockwork. of courselj. Made the rounds at Eau Claire, Carroll, Marquette QB. E., Ph. B., and M. E. re- spectivelyj plus three summers at U. of Minnesota. Itches to put on a football uniform every fall and sneak out seventh period for practice. Compromises by watching every game. f-ll s c eller fl if r JN! RJ J 1 Q. Page Ten
