Degree: B,A, Degree: B.A, Degree: B.A. FACULTY The faculty of West Valley High School is indeed one that the students can be proud of. Throughout the entire year the teachers proved their outstanding ability to put their points across to the students. They were friendly, and alwavs willing to lend a helping hand. Besides upholding their iobs and improving classroom instruction, our teachers definitely did away with the old adage that teachers are not human. Jimmy Wescott, in Seventeen, points out human characteristics which he calls Twitch Prediction, the small indication that . . . shows that the teacher is about to stop telling his twenty-year-old iokes and is going to turn to questioning the class. Younger teachers sometimes stop twirling their Phi Beta Kappa keys. Lady teachers may pat the back of their coiffures at this point . . . This is your cue to look eager and possibly even to whip out the text for that class . . . We are sure many of you noticed some of our own teachers' twitches. Don't you remember the bending of a meter stick during a chemistry lecture, the constant pacing from one side of the room to the other during an important phase of journalistic study, the familiar habit of drifting off to amusing stories in the midst of a language class, a man sitting with the chair tilted and his knee against the desk, the swiftly thrown eraser, closed eyes while she talks, or her standing on the back of her high heels. Or maybe you remember hearing: OKI Did you get that, did you get that , Some of you are chafing at the bit again , All right, kiddies , I don't want to be a dictator, butA , or Quit playing with the typewritersf' These things we'll remember in addition to their regular teaching and the extra work which so many of them unstintingly gave for our benefit. We wish to extend our congratulations to them for a iob well done. MlLDRED McBRIDE WALTER MICK CHARLES MILLARD English Woodshop Mathematics Degree: B.A. Degrees: B.A., M.A, D99f9e51 B-A., M-A.
