73 Trojan Dedicated to Worthington Senior High School Principal, Mr. Arnold T. Sanderson Enthusiasm, organization and a drive to do things thoroughly- these are the qualities of our Principal, Mr. Arnold T. Sanderson, that have united and inspired the student today. His leadership has given school life direction and pur- pose. On January 15, 1943, Mr. Arnold T. Sanderson became principal of Worthington Senior High School. 5780 seniors later he begins his re- tirement after the 1972-73 school year. ln May 1943, 106 students graduated and in May 1973, 297 will finish their high school career. Mr. Sanderson came to Worth- ington in 1934 after teaching in Badger. Minnesota for one year and in Wessington Springs, South Dakota for three years. A Con- cordia College graduate, Mr. San- derson was hired to teach Mathe- matics in senior high. He was also athletic activities director in the junior high. Coach Sanderson took the junior high basketball team to many area tournaments. ln addition to coach- ing all athletic activities he taught Latin I and ll, Economics, Chemis- try, Geometry, Physics and others at some time in his career. Miss Bethel Eshelman was work- ing for a local automobile dealer when she was introduced to the young teacher. They were married in 1935 and are the parents of threechildren. Observing that the nature of stu- dents hasn't changed too much throughout the years, Mr. Sander- son does feel that they are more open with adults and they develop their talents to a greater degree now. Mr. Sanderson has made an im- pact in other areas also. He has served as Executive Secretary to District 8 for the past ten years and served as chairman of the Minnesota high school-college public relations board. He was lo- cal Kiwanis President in 1966 and served on the board of First Lu- theranChurchforeightyears. And so to salute Mr. Arnold San- derson for more than forty years of public service to students, we dedicate the 1973 Trojan to him. With the dedication goes our sin- cere thank you tor his years in Worthington Senior High School. RIGHT. Mr. Arnold T. Sanderson has always maintained an open-door policy.
