DEDICATION A genteel man, his hair whitened by almost forty years as an educator, Dr. R. A. Getter will be leav- ing his position this year. This familiar friend of all Wilkinsburg High School students began his teaching career at Pymatuning Township as prin- cipal of the high school. Three years later he moved to Stoneborough where he was supervising principal of Sroneborough Public Schools. From there he went to Clairron as the principal of Clair- ton High School. After these eight busy years he came to W. H. S., where he taught mathematics and German until he became vice-principal, in which capacity he served our school until the re- tirement of Dr. William C. Graham in 1941. This well loved educator then stepped into the position of superintendent of the Vfilkinsburg School Sys- tem. In 1947 he received from his Alma Mater, Thiel College, an honorary Pd.D. degree. In his 31 years here he has touched the lives of thousands of students, who have found in practice an ex- ample of fairness, punctuality, honesty, and kind- ness. His high ideals and his friendly manner mark him a friend of young people. it is to this friend the staff of the 1950 Annual wishes to dedicate its memory book. As a gesture of good will and a wish for many useful years we give this Annual to Dr. R. A. Getter, Superintend- ent of the Wilkinsburg School System.
