In the mathematics department we find Mr. Trump, exponent of higher mathematics-and faithful timekeeper at Wisconsin High games,-and the aviatrix, Miss To-mek. Two new members have joined the mathematics staff: Mr. Bent and Mr. Ainsworth who open up the mathematical world to the aspiring junior high. ' In the language department we find Miss Weightman, who, besides' being dean of girls, manages to make herself very well liked while giving her students a solid foundation of Latin. Her cute cocker spaniel F1opsy, might well be termed the mascot of the school. Miss Laura Io-hnso-n is again teaching Ubuenos dias and bonjour to her students. The language depart- ment also has two new members: Miss Davis, who teaches French, German, and Italian Cin the Universityl without ever mixing them up, and Miss Margetis, who teaches Latin. On the historical side are Miss Falk, whose Cocker spaniel must be the co-mascot of the school, Mr. Phillips, whose quiet, friendly manner has won him many friendsg and Miss Ruth Johnson, kindly mistress of American history. As with all of the staff, .we have very capable English and speech depart- ments. When Miss Springhorn's junior high cabbages have come to a full head, they are taken over by the senior high English teachers who ripen them to maturity. We have Mr. Pooley, co-author of many English text- books, and Miss Hoard whose occasional lapses into a British accent reveal where some of -her training has occurred. Mr. Wedemeyer is the new member of the English department staff, who besides his regular duties is an adviser to the staff of the 1944 WISCONSIN. Miss Borchers, producer of great speakers, is joined in the speech .department by a member of the fighting Irish, Miss Walsh, who has ,charge of all speech and dramatic activities. Judging from the pleasant smells from the home economics rooms we may assume that the Misses Henderson and Hendrickson are doing a good job. The art work in the halls and ins this annual speaks well for Miss Allcott and her students. Mr. Goldgruber finds time to be junior high athletic coach as we-ll as a fine manual arts teacher. Credit for the fine musical perform- ances we have had this year go to our Wisconsin High musicians and their maestro, Mr. Ahrens. Mr. Knapp for the boys and Miss Purves for the girls are the directors of our excellent physical fitness program. As we look back upon our years at Wisconsin High School, we must surely agree that we have had a representative and capable group of teachers for our faculty. V ' Page Eight

' THE FACULTY The members of the XA7isconsin High School faculty have a twofold task, they must produce good students and at the same time train the participators to be good teachers. As most faculty members will admit, this is a difficult job-both because of ns and because of the participators. The faculty members must be doing their part, however, for Wiscoiisiii High School has a fine record for a school of its size. Mr. Eye has done much to improve our school during his three years as principal. He has two new members of the staff to assist him: Mr. Bent, who with his ever present good humor, executes his duties as assistant principal and director of guidance to the satisfaction of all, and Miss Howdle, our secretary, who handles the intricate affairs of the office very eapably. Mrs. Zaeske continues to conduct the library with her infinite patience and ever- ready smile. The science department is represented by four able and experienced teachers: Miss Wfeber, who teaches her students the secrets of a frog's interior, Mr. Davis, who delves in the mysterious physical world, Mr. Kivlin, who teaches his students how to produce corn, and Mr. Porter who manages to develop brilliant young chemists-malthongh not without some loss of equip- ment judging by the occasional resounding crashes which emanate from the 12:30 chemistry class.
