Yes, Miss McHugh taught 8th grade "fused" which was English and social studies combined [Home-room 208?]. . . . for our "memory selection" she had us memorize a passage from Longfellow's poem "Evangeline." "Must we in all things look for the how and the why and the wherefore? Daily injustice is done, but might is the right of the strongest." How about that for long term memory? Don't ask what I had for dinner a day back, or where I just put my glasses though!
And Mr. Quist had a unique habit of clearing his eustation [?] tubes, in front of class, mid lecture, by blocking his nostrils with his knuckles and blowing his nose hard against them. Both Webb Marris and friend Tom Ellis [OHHS '64] who will be at reunion have done fine impressions . . . .
