Ill ll ll SIIHUIIL SYSTEM lT is noT oTTen we have a chance To express our appreciaTion Tor The Three heads oT our high school. And appreciaTive we cerTainly are, Tor They have all shown us perTecT examples oT superb and eTTicienT direcTion. FirsT, a saluTe To our new principal, Mr. Hama mack! How guiclcly he became one of usl His cheery Hello and his helping hand have ene deared him To The sTudenTs oT Highlands. Our execuTive was born in Evansville, Indiana, on December 24, I907. For his AB. degree he aTTended WesTern KenTuclcy STaTe Teachers Col- lege, did graduaTe work aT Peabody Teachers College, and was granTed his MA. degree by The UniversiTy oT SouTh DalcoTa. From I928 To l93I our principal TaughT aT Union CounTy High School, buT his execuTive abiliTy was early recogs nized, and he became head oT lvlorTon Gap High School in I932. Then in I938, aTTer six successTul years as principal, Mr. Hammaclc accepTed The posiTion oT DisTricT SuperinTendenT oT Research and Records oT ThirTy-Two WesTern KenTuclcy counTies, However, in T942 The Teach- ing proTession called him, This Time To serve as principal of NorTonville High School. ln l943, he was summoned To lVlorganTield High School, again To serve as principal. NexT lvlr. Ham- mack came To-well, To a liTTle school called Highlands. We hearTily welcome him and exe press our hope ThaT he will be wiTh us Tor many years To come. Teacher, coach, principal, superinTendenT- These are all in The record oT our commander-in- chieT, Mr. Russell E. Bridges. Because he has held so many diTTerenT posiTions and Tilled each so well, he is splendidly gualiTied To undersTand The problems oT boTh TaculTy and sTudenTs. He deserves The loyal supporT OT The enTire school sysTem, and we lcnow such supporT is whole- hearTedly his. Miss MargueriTe lvloery has been aT our beclc and call as adviser Tor so long we hardly lcnow whaT we would do wiThouT her. She is always aT her posT noT iusT as vice-principal buT as guide and Triend To us all. We can scarcely realize how much she does Tor us Trom day To day, monTh To monTh and year To year. How she manages To perTorm her mulTiTudinous duTies so eTTicienTly is The S64 quesTion.
