I had Mr. Wayne
Taylor for Algebra...after getting a D in it the first time around with another
teacher...
I was scared to death of him but I did very well, I think I got a B. Tom Freeze
would help me with my homework
and then I would usually pull a better grade on the test than he did...very
embarrassing!

Thanks, Jean!
I was pleased to
see some info on Mr. Wayne Taylor, our stage crew sponsor in the early
60's. One night when goofing off in the auditorium I broke out a light panel in
the
overhead lights just before a "pep rally" the next day. I had to get the glass
removed
early the next morning. I waited all day to be suspended or expelled. Late in
the day
Mr. Taylor said he had taken care of everything. The next week the glass panel
was
replaced and I never heard anything about it. Alvah "Jimmy" Campbell and George
"Biddy"
Whitehurst
were my accomplices in this escapade. Mr. Taylor remains my hero to this day!
