One o f the busiest men around Columbus High School is our vice- principal, Mr. J. Ray Ross, who handles and keeps the books on all financial matters concerning the school. Mr. Ross is an amiable, humorous, and beloved member of our faculty and serves as a fine representative of Columbus High School to the community. During the six years Principal )udson S. Erne has been at C.H.S. (the first of which he served as guidance director) , he has become an invalu- able member of our faculty. He has shown great leadership and has accomplished many things for C.H.S. since he first became principal in 1950. He established three noon hours so there would not be so many students in the hall at one time. Mr. Erne ' s special pride is the P. A. system over which he often talks to the students. We students of C.H.S. are justifiably proud of our principal. Administrative H eads Coordinated School Affairs 23 This year ' s Guidance Di- rector was Keith Hertweck, Trinity U., Butler U., Ind.

The head of our school system is our superintendent, Luther Lockwood. It is to Superintendent Lockwood that we give much of the credit for the construction of the new physical edu- cation building. Mr. Lockwood also had much to do with the planning of Unit B in the new high school now under construction. As superintendent of schools, Mr. Lockwood holds the reins to all the affairs of all the schools in Columbus. He is interested in every- thing that concerns Columbus High School and is always willing to lend a helping hand wherever it is needed. School Offkials Pushed Completion of New Physical Education Plant Always in the background of our school system, but with their presence being felt, was the school board, William Wissman, Edwin Crouch, and Richard Stoner, president, who met twice a month with Mr. Lockwood, our superintendent. They employed all of our teachers and officers and authorized all improvements to school property and equipment. These men did their job very well; and without their help and support, the construction of the physical education building would not have been possible. 22

The 7955 Fa€ulty When we entered Columbus High School, we were met by teachers. They took us on a conducted tour through mathematics, English, history, and other fas- cinating subjects. While we struggled valiantly through a maze of Latin and French verbs, there was always a teacher to give us an assist in the right direc- tion. They corrected our mistakes always with an explanation. They directed us in our various activi- ties and sports. Several of them helped us discover our special talents and decide on our vocations. Our teachers equipped us with the tools that are neces- sary to make our way successfully in the world. We can truly say that the fate of our city rests in the hands of our teachers, for it is they who mold char- acter, feed minds, and guard the mental and physical health of the future citizens of Columbus.
