Superintendent J. C. Mampton Pilot MamptoH Sees Sducation Js Zoivor Sigml Along with other administrators all over the country, Superintendent Hampton ' s year was filled with two types of problems. There were those con¬ cerned with maintaining a war time education program and those concerned with the education needs for the period of adjustment in the post war days. Like other superintendents, Mr. Hampton was faced with the task of teacher replacement every so often; however, the senior high school suffered no losses. The Defense School was continued this year with fifty boys enrolled. Those from Astoria High were scheduled for a half day at the Defense School for pre-induction training. Plans for the peace time days are underway. There is an especial interest in the physical education set-up and the vocational program. A vocational center, which will serve high school students, adults, and returned servicemen definitely under consideration. A survey for such a center has been made ' This survey is being used as a pattern for other states. As usual Superintendent Hampton arranged for special teachers ' meet¬ ings and made it possible for A.H.S. teachers to participate in an in-service training program. Mr. Hampton also gave his support to a series of lectures carrying college credit. 8
