DR. E. F. STABLER margaret barclay Girls' Counselor B. S., Litt. M., University of Pittsburgh Since Miss Margaret Barclay's entire teaching career has been with the Clairton Schools, why she is so aware of the needs and problems of Clairton students is evident. As Girls' Counselor she devotes most of her time to help- ing solve those problems. She also makes available to all students college and vocational information, and adminis- ters intelligence and aptitude tests. Besides, she coordinates activities through the Steering Committee and sponsors the Go-To-College Club. Together with the council sponsors Miss Barclay this spring arranged for Clairton High's first Career Night at which alumni successful in their chosen fields spoke to groups of students and their parents. wilbur k. monks Vocational Department Director B. S., Carnegie Institute of Technology M. A., University of Pittsburgh Mr. Wilbur Monks, who has been teaching in Clairton High School for thirty-one years, directs the boys' Voca- tional Department and the Clairton Night School. More boys than the department's three shops can take care of each year wait eagerly for the day Mr. Monks gives the tests which are part of the shop entrance requirements. Many are turned away because they fail to meet the schol- astic or personal standards upon which Mr. Monks insists for shop boys. Those who are lucky enough to make the grade find that Mr. Monks makes an effort to know them personally, to help them with school and personal problems, and to have ready for them up-to-date information about the iobs for which they are preparing. Y 10 evert f. Stabler Senior High School Principal Litt. B., Grove City College Ed. M., Ph. D., University of Pittsburgh Since T938 the office of the principal of Clairton Senior High School has been cap- ably filled by Dr. Evert F. Stabler. Himself a Clairton graduate in 1921, Dr. Stabler knows well his city, his school, his students, and their parents. Evert Stabler, young man with a fu- ture, proved his capabilities at the start of his career. After only four years of teach- ing in Clairton, he was elected principal of Fifth Street Junior High School. Nine years later in 1938 he became Senior High School principal. During his administration he has be- come known for his liberal support of what is new in education, and his encouragement of extracurricular activities. His untiring effort on behalf of his stu- dents and teachers has made a place for Clairton High among the outstanding high schools of the state. Miss Margart Barclay Mr. Wilbur K. Monks

progress-minded citizens harvey . teal Superintendent of Schools A. B., Defiance College M. A., Ohio State University Two generations of Clairton High School students claim Mr. Harvey D. Teal their counselor, friend, and understanding confidant. His interest and activity in civic and athletic organizations, plus his untiring guidance since 1929 of each succeeding class of future Clairton citizens, has helped make Clairton the thriving, prosperous city it now is. After twenty-one years of service in Clairton, plus others spent in Ohio schools, Mr. Teal expects to retire in June. This will not, however, bring an end to his concern for the well-being of the many friends he has among students, teachers, and people of Clairton. Nor will it bring to an end their con- cern for his future. They wish for him every opportunity to carry out the plans he has made and to enioy their fruits so that his reward for years of unselfish service will be just. SECRETARIAL STAFF MR. H. D. TEAL Much detail work toward keeping the gears of Clairton Schools meshing smoothly is done by the persons shown left to right below. They are Miss Gloria Taddeo, switchboard operator, Miss Audrie Harrison, superintendent's secretary, Mrs. Angeline Bracken, superintendent's secretary and chief troubles shooter, and Miss Esther Paros, iunior high secretary.
