l t LYMAN K. DAVIS Principal l-leading the administration of a large high school, With all its details and phases, was Mr. Davis' job, and he completed his third year in this capacity with efficiency and skill. Students, faculty, building employees, all came under his influence at one time or another, and all better appreciated the plan behind the opera- tion of our high school, because of these contacts. This year an important change was made in combining Central and Senior high schools in the newer building. Because of this fact, and the re- vision of the day into six periods, many new problems arose. That these problems were solved satisfactorily is attested by the fact that from the open- ing day of school a smooth Working schedule was put into operation. Separate study centers for boys and girls, introduced this year, operated with greater efficiency under teachers experienced in student guidance. Another innovation of the administration was a guarterly magazine which provided parents with information about the school system, its activities, and its policies. Students and faculty profited by a variety of excellent assem- blies, consisting of both school and outside talent. Mr. Davis was not sat- isfied with good enough, but insisted that every one contribute his best to improve the standards of the school. Nineteen
