GUIDIN6 INFLUENCES September 8, 1936 Dear Diary, To-day I met the two new faculty members elected by the School Board. Everyone knows Miss Frances Tarr, a very lively and attractive alumna of Westmont. In addition to teaching sophomore and junior English, she will be the adviser for the Yodler. Mr. Millard P. Robin- son, a tall, handsome newcomer of athletic figure, will teach the freshmen civics, health and gym'l. He will spend his after-school hours as assistant coach. I believe the Board MR' W'LLARD ACKLEY was wise in its selection of new teachers. November 5, 1936 The Board has approved the purchase of a new 1500 watt Kleiglight Spot- light for the auditorium. It will be used in plays, concerts, or any major dra- matic activity given in the auditorium. The Board has promised to push the order through in time to get the light here for our senior play. March 1 2, 1 937 I was rather surprised to see so many members of the School Board at our carnival to-night. You know, diary, secretly I have always stood in awe of the School Board members, for they seem to me so formal and sophisticated. To- night my whole idea was changed, for they were friendly and appeared to be hav- ing as good a time as we students at the carnival. I know now that they are really very human and sympathetic with our school activities. BOARD OF EDUCATION Left to right: Mr. Freeman F. Fullerton. Mr. James B. Hershberger. Mr. Foster H. Berkebile. Mr Luther E. Lehman, Mrs. Harrv Hager, Mr. Charles W. Tilley. Mrs. David C. Boag. Mr. Frank T. James and Mr. E. Arthur James. Absent when nicture was taken: Mr. Lewis l. Miller. Mr. Arthur Rummel.

v FACULTY Sl DEITTISI-ITS September 9. 1936. Iiear Diary, Here are our teachers as we seniors know them, as we see them in their class rooms, as they really are: not stern disciplinarians but nat- ural, friendly human beings. I have found them ready to listen to my problems, to guide me in my decisions, and to smile with me at my mis- takes. I know that I shall always remember their helping hands, the heart-to-heart talks I have had with them, and the time they have spent teaching and advising me.
