ADMINISTRATIQ Improving curriculum cmd expanding present facil- ities are two of the many tasks confronting River's Board of Education. To meet the needs of a grow- ing school population, contracts were awarded for the construction of the new Bates Elementary School and for an addition to Goldwood. Three tennis courts have been laid out and another parking lot has been added at the high school. New bleachers have been installed at the iunior high athletic field. The board approved organiza- tion of the local State House Conference held in October and worked hard developing support for the renewal of the 9.29 mill operating levy at the November fourth election. In addition to approving various curriculum changes, the board was respon- sible for beginning French classes for elementary school pupils. Dr. Thoburn S. Davis 1 l Boys' Council, National Honor Society, and the prin- cipalship of RRHS fill Mr. Robert Cawrse's time amply. A graduate of Baldwin Wallace, he's also attended Western Reserve. When not concerned with academic problems, Mr. Cawrse is a fishing, boat- ing, gardening, and sports enthusiast. Students and faculty alike often comment on his friendliness and administrative ability. Understanding and a genuine desire and interest to help the student in solving problems characterize River's Dean of Girls, Miss Frances McKee. Taking time from a busy schedule, she acts as advisor for Student Council and Girls' Council. Trave occupies her summer months. Now, l tell you what l'm gonna do. The many duties of assistant principal - the handling of dis- cipline problems and working with the building and grounds and canteen committees, to name a few - are handled by Mr. Arthur Bennett. Two of his fa- vorite pasttimes are fishing and reading.

Mr. Robert Payne, Mr. Edgar Burford, Mr. Charles Shelton A love of nature, travel, theater, books, and Robert Frost are the chief charac- teristics of Miss Dorothy Gray. Teaching sophomore and iunior English, advising the monitor and service committee of Stu- dent Council, and driving to her home on the East Side occupy most of her time. She can always be found looking for something. Speech logs and cutting myriads of clip- pings are things most remembered by Miss White's speech students. While she also teaches English eleven, drarnatics is her first love, as she still heads Neophyte-Thespians and directs River's two annual plays. Travel is a favoritc pasttime. Come on, Come on, Wow! Boing! A firm background for college Eng- lish spiced with histrionics is pro- vided by Mr. Edgar Burford. His extra-curricular activity is sponsor- ing Senior Hi-Y. Golf, puttering around, and working on his Ph.D. take up his spare time. Incidentally, he is reputed to be a biblio-maniac. When not instructing Riverites in English or iournalism, Mr. Robert Payne finds himself acting as junior class adviser or overseeing the pro- duction of the Thursday night Hi-Tide. When summer rolls around, he migrates to his Lake Michigan cottage. Sponsoring the Riverlet is Mr. Charles Shelton's main vexation, in spare periods he teaches English. In addition to being a summertime milkman, outside interests include gardening, furniture refinishing, and his family. Threatening to fire the entire Riverlet staff consumes much of his seventh period. Miss Edith White, Miss Dorothy Gray
