Hi Maxine, I am Sorry I can't help you. I live in Wisconsin at this time and only go home to Ohio in the spring and summer. All of the research I do at the present time is online and in correspondance. I hope you get a more positive reply from someone back home. Sorry.

Maxine I had a Miss Rooks in the 8th grade at Kyle School in Troy Ohio. I don't know what her first name was because we used Miss Rooks. She used two canes to walk with and believe me she knew how to use them. I had her about 1948. We had to go into our rooms on the fire escapes. I remember on boy that got a Mohawk haircut one day when he came to school the next day she meant him at the top of the fire escape and sent him home. He showed up the next day with his head shaved. She was a good teacher.
