As all news stories can- not be happy ones, they gave us a real jolt when we read Tech was to be merged with Phoenix Union.

The School Board represents the ultimate in service, for its members meet weekly and re- ceive no monetary compensa- tion. They are subject to more criticism than praise for watch- dogs of the treasury get it from one side or the other - for spending too much or not pay- ing enough.

He was in the State Department of Vocational Education for eighteen years, and was State Supervisor of Trade and Industry. He was also State Supervisor of Distributive Education and Business Education. In World War I he served in the 18th Infantry Division, and during World War II he was Ari- zona'sI State Supervisor of Civilian Training for National Defense. At one time Mr. Cracey was coordinator of the night school at Arizona Vocational School which was the fore- runner of PHOENIX TECHNICAL SCHOOL.
