PRINCIPAL GEORGE DRAKE The ability to look forward to future opportuni- ties rather than backward to past mistakes is the mark of a well-adjusted person. Most people have within themselves the resources for dealing with their own problems if they will but take the FORWARD LOOK. You will succeed in the future to the extent that you have developed high morale, the willing- ness to work and a sense of values basic to democratic action. To look forward to new goals and upward for strength greater than yourself, is the basis for being a successful and happy individual. ABLE, WELL-TRAINED ADMINISTRA TORS DIRECTOR ROBERT MITCHELL the students. SUPERINTENDENT GLEN GOODWILL Dr. Glen Goodwill has completed his first year as superintendent of the Santa Monica City Schools. Under his guidance we are looking forward to an extensive building and improvement program. We are grateful for his splendid cooperation in support- ing our share, allotted from Santa Monica's proposed 310,500,000 bond issue. Mr. Mitchell arranges textbooks and tourses for Lincoln. He directs the Lead :rship class and is very popular among
