Above: Superintendent Walter Hetzel SUPERINTENDENT AND SCHOOL BOARD Mr. Walter Hetzel, superintendent of schools, and the mem¬ bers of the school board have had to work closely this year to solve the problems facing them; that of housing the grov ing number of students was only partially solved by the construction of the first unit of the new high school building. Mr. Hetzel in¬ dicated that had it not been for the new building, half-day ses¬ sions would have been necessary this year. Along with the change in curriculum and teaching methods, teaching facilities have also changed since the completion of the downtown high school building. Top-quality, modern equipment had been installed in the science and shop rooms. Below—OFFICE PERSONNEL: George Hendrickson, Mrs. Grayce Elliott, Mrs. Deanna Greene, Darla Carlson, Laura Sayre. The school board was active in deter¬ mining a budget for all of the schools and making necessary changes. The board offi¬ cers were Mr. Frank E. Adams, president; Mr. Frank B. Howell, secretary; and Mr. Hiram Munn, treasurer. SCHOOL BOARD: Don S. Stevens, Mrs. Lee Rosebrook, Thomas E. Hannum, Frank B. Howell, Walter L. Hetzel, Frank E.
