DL O O SPRlNGFlELD,OHlO . .1944 PRINCIPAL C. L. Fox Quite as the fighting forces themselves, the school executive must sort the contradictions, eliminate the unessential, work with his staff toward a greater effectiveness in the classroom and greater pointing toward the future demands. Regimentation must fall by the Way in order that the individual child may glean what will be most valuable to him in the confused pattern of life's present living. This has been the task of Prin. C. L. Fox and to it he has given invincible courage and untiring energy. Springfield High School today stands high among the schools of the United States which are being checked by the demands of the times and students. SUPERINTENDENT HOMER L. STEVENS The task of the superintendent of schools in these years of continued War strain becomes heavier. The constantly changing enrollment due to influx of War workers, the withdrawal of students for work and for the armed service, the lessening of parental supervision, the inevitable increase of school dis- cipline and control, the varying supply and demand in the teaching force, together with a multiple of calls for his own service upon boards and com- mittees of civic and federal Work, all combine to make exacting demands. Supterintendent Homer L. Stevens has proved himself equal to all the pro- blems that have arisen.
