LYMAN K. DAVIS Assistant Principal DOROTHY BUNDY Dean of Girls Tu'vI vc The triumvirate of the Springfield High School faculty appear on this page. Don't close the hook, but read on to see how they help make your school the school you want it to be. In this corner we present the assistant prin- cipal, Mr. L. K. Davis, usmilin' Lyman , col- loquially speaking. He is the Big Bad Bogie Man in charge of discipline. NAt once ...... . Davis is his favorite message to skipping stu- dents, who shake in their shoes as they read the ominous words. If your eye strays down, it will rest on gentle Miss Dorothy Bundy, dean of girls, and on Wise-looking Mr. Roy Wentz, dean of hoys. These two have parallel duties. Advisors of Senior Girls' and Boys' Councils, respectively, they straighten out programs and other tangles. Besides this, Miss Bundy teaches a class in Eng- lish, Mr. Wentz one in business arithmetic. How do these three find time for all their many duties? That, dear reader, is one of the unsolved m steries of the a es. Y g ROY WENTZ Dean of Boys

English Department Miss Alexander's 101 English Class This past year witnessed many changes in the personnel of the English Department, the greatest undoubtedly being the loss of Miss Susan Wilcox, for many years the head of the department. In addition Miss Van De- venter left the second semester to take a posi- tio11 at Lanphier Highg her vacancy was filled by Grace Cox who assumed full time duties here. Miss Graham has been appointed to till Miss Wilcoxls place. For the first semester the department was under the leadership of four committees, one for each of the four years. Although the corps of teachers has under- gone changes, the English course remains the same. English 9' and IO! are excellent train- ing in composition, while 92 and 102 are purely literary, serving as a basis for the more advanced literature of 5 and 7. For stu- dents who desire more than the required three years of English there are courses in debate, drama, public speaking, journalism, and scribblers. These are all one semester courses, well-organized and worthwhile. The drama class this year displayed its talents in the drama class play g'He Who Gets Slappedf' skillfully directed by Miss Maragaret Rourke.
