Mrs. Judith Luckett, who is a Spanish teacher and a sponsor of Spanish club, is a 5' 4" blond, and has gray‑green eyes. Her smile is radiant and her attitude is friendly.

When asked what she thought of her students, she smiled and said, "In general they are friendly and enthusiastic.''

The first thing Mrs. Luckett noticed about the school, and what she thought was the most outstanding feature about Maine, is the way the students display so much school spirit.

The only thing that she dislikes about Maine is the long drive to and from school. Her pet peeve is the inconsiderate way students treat one another, especially in the halls.

Mrs. Luckett is a graduate of Glenbard High School West and has a Bachelor of Arts degree from Northern Illinois University. She spent the summer of 1962 in Mexico at the University of Mexico to advance her knowledge of Spanish. Prior to coming to Maine West, she taught French at Maine South.

Teaching has not been her constant occupation. Earlier, she was assistant dorm director and did office work.

"Study more," is her advice to all students. Mrs. Luckett also advises that teaching is for those who are interested in helping young people and "like kids."

Maine West is happy to have Mr. William Dolak as an addition to the faculty. This brown-eyed, dark‑haired, biology teacher operates in B‑108 and is happy to be a part of Maine West.

Mr. Dolak's weekends are spent attending a math course at the Illinois Institute of Technology and playing bridge and golf. Mr. Dolak has also traveled all over Europe.

His pet peeve is students who chew gum in class, although he considers the situation at Maine West to be well in hand. He thinks that one of the best things about Maine West is the friendly students and teachers and the high standards of the faculty.

"Maine West has excellent facilities, and students who successfully complete their four years have a definite advantage over students who graduate from many other high schools in the United States," commented Mr. Dolak. His advice to students is to study hard, for it will pay off in the long run.

Mr. Dolak received his degree from Illinois State University and has previously taught in two other schools. He thinks teaching is a wonderful profession, but a person must really enjoy it in order to be a good teacher.
