Uar faculty Our Faculty Heads -Dolph Lain, C. R. Crakes, and Elof Peterson Welcomu 714 lack . . . 1'?06 01 Jeff? Q3 N' l . , Q9 E9 WX if M mf l Q. X ' F N Welcomed back to the confines of M. H. S. by our faculty, we found that wartime conditions had greatly altered the substance of our high school life. Courses designed to prepare us for aid to the war effort had been added to the curriculum, and other evidences of war were to be found in nearly every classroom. Not just a few of our city's school system have answered their nation's call to the colors, and all of the others are doing their duty on the home front. Several faculty members have as- sumed responsible positions on local commit- tees directly related to the national welfare. All of the faculty are to be congratulated for the patriotic manner in which they handled the tedious work of registration for the va- rious ration programs which have become a part of our daily life. Heading this fine faculty are Mr. Dolph Lain and Mr. Elof Peterson, who hold the offices of principal and assistant principal, respectively. F ormer-Principal C. R. Crakes now holds the office of Superintendent of Schools.

LEE BARNETT Manual Arts Located in an industrial center such as Moline, we need men trained in manual arts. Mr. Barnett works hard at fulfilling this need by training Moline High boys and girls well. WILBUR BARCLAY Manual Arts Though very seldom seen around the halls of Moline High School itself, he is doing a fine job in training boys at M. A. to hold down vital defense jobs after graduation. 9
