Tech ' s Man Of The Year Mr. Howard L. Longshore was the most important person in this successful year. As of September, 1964, our man of the year became officially the principal of Arsenal Technical High School. In previous years Mr. Longshore served as a vice-principal in charge of finances, and also building and grounds. Mr. Long- shore handled the difficult executive position of prin- cipal with ease and efficiency. He had the final de- cision on all important matters concerning Tech. He supervised the work of our five vice-principals who were in charge of various jobs. Numerous duties made his work interesting and fulfilling.

Our Administration This Was the Year That Was could not have been possible if it hadn ' t been for the faithful ad- ministrators of Tech. The administration was helpful, hard-working and dedicated. Everyone, from the principal to the secretaries proved his willingness to give assistance to troubled Techites many times each day. They were interested in every facet of Tech life and energetically worked on all projects and programs that transpired on campus. The counselors gave Titans advice in career planning and tested aspiring scholars with college entrance examinations. Program planning, roll rooms and curriculum — administrator ' s night- mares — were handled easily and smoothly by the staff. Vice principals and directors worked constantly on school activities, safety, campus grounds, the school finances, athletics, publications, evening school and many others. Tech has a long history of devoted work- ers. Our present staff has done its best to carry on the tradition that was begun by these early administra- tors. They, like our forefathers, still strive for the high school, academic and athletic standards that were set by the first Techites. In short, Tech has an ad- ministration of which it can be very proud.

Their many varied jobs included evening school, supervision of student counseling and keeping office records up to date. But that wasn ' t all. Our important men of the year that was were in charge of planning programs for students and teachers, building and grounds maintenance, super- vision of finance, and safety patrol matters. These duty minded men kept our school run- ning smoothly by virtue of hard work and long hours. Kenneth Puckett
