SCHOOL STAFF
SEES CHANGES
Three more changes in the fac­
ulty of the city schools was an­
nounced Wednesday by Supt. Theo
J. Norby after the resignations of
Hollis Beasley, assistant high
school principal, Miss Lois Ho­
gan and Miss Ora Lee Vannice
had been accepted.
Asst Principal Hollis Beasley,
who has been teaching social sci­
ences here, will teach in the We­
natchee, Wash, schools during the
coming term.
Kenneth Wood,
elected to take Beasley’s place, is
a graduate of Salem high school,
has had one year's training at
Willamette and is a graduate of
the University of Oregon. For the
past two years he has been teach­
ing in the Dufur, Ore. schools
where he taught history, book­
keeping, typing and also served
as coach.
The position left vacant by the
resignation of Miss Lois Hogan,
junior high instructor, was at first
said to have been filled by the
appointment of Miss Dorothy
Parks, but it was later learned
that confirmation was lacking on
this appointment.
Miss Ora Lee Vannice, home ec­
onomics instructor in the junior
high school, will be replaced by
Carolyn Wolcott, a graduate of
Marshfield high school and a gra­
duate of University of Oregon,
where she has been president of
the association of women students
the past year.
Earlier changes in the faculty
resulted from resignations of
Leighton Blake, football coach.
Miss Virginia Jepsen, high school
business administrtation instruc­
tor and Mis» Dorothy Whitcher,
domestic science instructor These
positions will be taken by Frank
O'Neil, Miss Maraiee Fry and Miss
Marie Looseley.
