Mr. Calhoun —A Iclrn in id tra li on Mr. Sanford H. Calhoun, our most capable principal, has again efficiently guided the lives of approximately 1,300 Mepham students this year. To most people, a job affording such a great responsibility would prove to be an impossible task, but fortunately for the student body, our principal has built Mepham into a school to be proud of. All of its graduates arc highly rated by colleges and employers. Mr. Calhoun was born at Troy, New York, and received his Bachelor of Science degree from St. Lawrence University and his Master of Arts degree from Columbia University. During World War II, he served as captain in the Army Air Force, returning to Mepham in January, 1946. Mr. Eugene E. Hallenbeck, our Assistant Principal, received his Bachelor of Science degree from St. Lawrence University. He earned his Master’s degree at Columbia University. We hear his familiar voice practically every afternoon over our P. A. system and he performs many essential tasks so important in running a school efficiently and well. Some of Mr. Hallenbeck’s jobs are being in charge of the General Organization, making up all student programs, and handling all money which enters the office. Mr. Hallenbeck Page nine
