I Theodore . Turney To the Coach who is impartial and generous, Ilnselfish in his devotion to North High, Revered by player and spectator alikeg Never a quitter,,' but producer of champions, twiceg njoying fair play and clean competition, Yearly inspiring his boys to high ideals of conduct, We affectionately dedicate this volume of T he North Star 'ik' 6 JH 1f. Smith OUR MR. SMITH! Yes, indeed! There may be hundredsiof other Smiths in the telephone directory, but North High is ,oblivious of all but one, Hugh R. Smith, our principal. He is the hub of our little universe here at North, as we realized last fall when we almost lost him. Saturday morning, October 26, 1929, While repairing the airing porch at his home, Mr. Smith fell some distance to the ground. In one brief second he sustained very serious injuries that would have cost che life of any man but one of his determination. Long months of suffering followed, but they did not prevent Mr. Smith's taking part in school affairs. In his room in the hospital, he conducted special helpu classes, so that students might pass their examinations. He received the reports of the football games as the plays were made, for his room was connected with the foot- ball field by telephone. Mrs. Smith kept him in touch with the school problems every day, for she was at his post in the office, administering justice and attending to school duties as if she had no family to claim her attention.
