1930 WEATHER VANE Va: o4 MRS. ALMA COOK jyjRS. Cook spends her time explaining the intricacies of algebra II and plane geometry to unwilling sophomores and juniors. She learned the very latest methods at Miami University from which she received a B. A. degree. Mrs. Cook is also one of Dr. Anna Y. Reed’s enthusiastic students at New York University. MISS ANNIE P. HEWITT JYf iss Hewitt is everything efficient, orderly, and logical. If you like mathematics you like Miss Hewitt; and if you don’t like mathematics—well, you like her just the same. A graduate from West Chester State Normal School and holder of a B. S. degree from Temple University, she teaches solid geometry and trigonometry. Miss Hewitt has also done graduate work at Columbia. MISS OLIVE HA.MMELL |yjiss Hammell was graduated from the Trenton Normal School and manages to keep busy teaching typing, bookkeeping, and commercial arithmetic. She seems extremely interested in stamp collecting and enjoys guiding the members of the Collectors’ Club in their projects. Lately she has been studying under Hughes Mearns, author of Creative Youth. MR. C. BLAIR ROGERS 'YJR. Rogers matriculated at Lafayette College and emerged bearing in his hands a Ph.B. degree. He teaches biology and chemistry and also helps Mr. Johnson teach W. H. S. students how to use a slide rule. His specialty seems to be cutting up worms and bugs, much to the horror of the young ladies. MR. WALTER E. JOHNSON, JR. MR Johnson teaches more stiff subjects—general mathematics, plain geometry, and physics. He was granted a degree of B. S. from Colgate and one of B. A. from Columbia. The excellence of the baseball team was due chiefly to his good steady coaching. He also serves as adviser to the Slide Rule Club. F ourteen
