GUIDANCE MRS. SARAH LORY Morningside College; ' Union Theological Seminary; Col¬ umbia U.; George Washington U., A.B.; Director of Guidance. MRS. MARY BATTAGLIA D ' Youville College, B.A.; George Washington U.; Twelfth-grade counselor. MR. ROBERT A. GRAY George Washington U.; Columbia U.; A.B., M.A.; Tenth-grade counselor. The changes of the past ten years have not changed the guidance department ' s dedi- cation and service to others. At first, with a Guidance suite of only three offices, the counselors resorted to counseling in halls. Home Ec. kitchens, and the library. The early concept of a half-time teacher-counselor working for a scattered period or two has been replaced by a full-time counselor trained on the professional level. Each now has his own office, affording him the necessary privacy for good counseling relationships. MR. ED HENRY MRS. JEANNE PAYNE U. of Virginia, B.S., M.S.; Radford College, B.A.; Ninth-grade counselor; Eleventh and Twelfth-grade Coach: V. Football. counselor. MRS. SHIRLEY RANDA Hunter College; George Washington U., A.B.; Ninth- grade counselor. MR. PETER J. VISNICH Davis and Elkins College; U. of Virginia, B.S., M.A.; Tenth-grade counselor. 20
