WY , ; if fe4 MR. WALDRO J. KINDIG Principal SENIORS: “Never in the experience of mankind has there been so great a challenge placed before the youth of today. Sen- iors leaving our secondary schools are being asked to shoulder a great share of the burden of war and, at the same time, to create a vision of the kind of world we should like to live in after this conflict. “Many of the classmates are now in the armed services. Others will enter those services in the summer; no one in the class will be untouched by the war effort or its effects. “Let us then dedicate our energy, tal- ent, and training to the prosecution of Merely A Parting this war and to the reconstruction period of peace that will follow.” “ So-Long if WALDRO J. KINDIG, Principal MAG Ahead Ws Se It has often been said how difficult it is for many people, e specially students, to get accus- tomed to and fully acquainted with a new friend in one year. Since the very first meeting with Mr. Kindig dictates to ’ Miss Eleanor Mercuro, Secretary. our new principal, that statement lost all mean- ing, for Mr. Waldro Kindig has imbued with each and every student a common friendship, an inspiring atmosphere. % After graduating from Ohio State University, Mr. Kindig returned to his home town, Napo- leon, Ohio, to teach. Later he taught in Dela- ware, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio; Mt. Holly, New Jersey; and Brockton, Massachusetts. In 1935, he received his masters’ degree at Columbia University. He succeeded Dr. Galen Jones as principal of Plainfield High School last Sep- tember. Only two of his many achievements this year have been leadership in the Victory Corps and tenor membership in the faculty “barber shop” chorus. His first year in PHS is memorable, especial- ly to the departing seniors who have found in him a most devoted and enthusiastic friend. He has set a fine example in saying: “There can be no freedom without responsibility, no liberty without self-discipline.”
