MR. RICHARD HOBSON Assistant Principal There must be an easier way to earn a living! remarks Mr. Hobson thinking of problems he faces as he views the line-up on the mourners' bench. Mr. Hobson enforces order It would seem reasonable to hire three people to accomplish all the duties of an assistant principal, yet these duties are delegated to only one man-Mr. Hobson.

Yet throughout his continuous schedule Mr. Hobson, who is always willing to lend a helping hand, maintains a cordial and courteous attitude.

MR. ARTHUR HAVLOVIC Principal The art of heing a principal is complex and demanding. It requires a capable mind and universal knowledge. lt demands physical endurance and lasting patience. It necessitates willing- ness and enthusiasm far beyond the job. A person with these qualities is Western Hills, principal, Mr. Arthur Havlovic. Each day he calls upon his varied faculties in quick succession. Arriving as early as seven-thirty, he may find teachers and sometimes parents eager to confer with him. Following the crowded busy hour before school, he turns to conferences with perhaps an assistant principal, a counselor, a secretary, the dietition, the engineer, the visiting fireman, or the man who came to repair the time clock. Nor does his day come to a close at three o'clock. There are still endless meetings to attend in both the afternoon and the evening. To tend to all these matters and yet retain a congenial way and a friendly smile is the mark of a devoted man such as lVlr. Havlovic.
