Mr. lohn H. Burke, A. M. Principal To our principal, Mr. Burke, who is so closely connected with Cortland High School and all that it means, we express our thanks and appre- ciation. His real interest in us which has led him to grant us a share in our school govern- ment and other school affairs, marks him as a true friend. We recognize his ability in keeping things running so smoothly in this transitional period of building our new schoolffa period when a level head is most needed. We will always remember his guiet, unassuming thoughtful- ness and vast good humor which have earned our respect. Mr. Erwin G. Simmons, A. M. Superintendent Mr. Simmons came to us as a prominent edu- cator from Northern New York in the middle of the school year of l937-38. ln this short period he has shown his vision and far-sightedness in determining the present and future needs of our school system. Such skill proves his ability as an ardent leader. His wit and rare sense of humor on many occasions have characterized our Superinten- dent as a favorite speaker. Because of his willingness to participate in the affairs of the community, the people of Cort- land appreciate his good fellowship and feel that they have gained a friend in this public- spirited citizen.

BCDARD of EDUCATICDN .it The members of the Board of Education have proven that they are devoted to the progress of the Youth of Cortland. We, the pupils, extend our thanks and appreciation for the new building sponsored by them to provide more adequate facilities for our safety and our comfort. Much sacrifice of time and effort has been required to make these plans possible.
