il I il kk Faculty Guardians over 850 lively and sometimes studious students are the faculty of twenty-nine teach- ers and two secretaries. For them, this has been a shifty year. When P. A. Keller was inducted into the Army, Fiske Mountain was selected to replace him as band director. Mrs. Harold Rein- ecker filled the position vacated bv Miss Ruby Mider as sophomore English teacher. Because of the illness of Miss Betty Crawford, first Miss Bertha Bitner, then, Mrs. Marjorie Newberry became regular teachers. Miss Sadie Hall came to high school from the grades as librarian. Two new men teachers were R. E. Buchanan, who teaches biol- ogy, and Artie Hall, football coach and woodwork teacher. The new foods teacher was Miss Irene Riggs. Miss Ann Holman and Miss Lanore Newton, together, had two of the largest problems of the school-200 wiggly seventh and eighth graders' in social sci- ence and English. Teacher of vo- cal music is Miss Lucy Carpenter. Stand-bye from previous years are Misses Erma Foster, Bertha Clark, Lora Lynn, Eva Jacques, Wanda May Vinson, Jeanette Smith, Pauline Shockey, Jane Swartz, Isabel Mickey, Lela Cobb, and Eleanor Markley, Mrs, Christine Carter, Cade Suran, Leonard Devore, E. J. Schrag, and Clarence Oppy. Nurse Myrtle Glover took care of permits, all scratches and headaches. Prin- cipal E. Paul Lessig and Superin- tendent Claude Kissick turned professors of physics and chem- istry. Secretaries Loisl Covington and Tillie Cannon kept track of all official business. Mrs. Cade Suran and Mrs. E. J. Schrag were substitute teachers for junior high science. All in all, they are a capable group, and Wellington high has profited because they are the fac- ulty.
