Assistant Principal Howard R. Sorensen ounoeloro When the counselors lift the cover of the Album of Life for all South High students, they paste in constructive ideas, jobs, secur- ities, and mend the torn pages of personal problems, which might otherwise go unheeded. They help the students plan a curricular program that is best suited to their individual interests and abilities. These dedicated members of the faculty contribute a great deal to the building of good character and the preparation of the students for the pages before them which are still unfilled. Director of Guidance Services, Athletics, Student Activities and Attendance is Assistant Principal Howard H. Sorensen, who does much for South High by editing the actions and pursuits of the student body. Educational institutions are rich, not in buildings and in endowments, but in the men and women they have sent into the world to do life's work. jf o I N v ,fi - ivfl' I 'I lljf. 1, gvffy ,fly I nv ' HH. .
