OUR PRINCIPAL VICE-PRINCIPAL STUDENT BODY PREXY Providing a curriculum which will meet the needs of each student as an individual is the motivating factor of Mr. Bush's endeavors as principal of Astoria. High. Mr. Bush was born in Bemidji, Minnesota. He came to AHS as vice-principal and dean of boys with the class of '52, and became principal the year the '52-ers became mighty seniors. Mr. Bush received his B.S. from Bemidji State Teachers' College and his M.S. from the University of Oregon. A quiet disposition and sunny smile are character- istic of Mr. Ralph Lind, Astoria High's vice-principal and dean of boys. Mr. Lind taught Social Problems and U.S. History at Hood River High before coming to Astoria. He went to school in Portland, Oregon, and earned his Master's Degree in Education at the University of Oregon. Understanding and assistance, given by Mr. Lind to those with attendance or sched- ule problems, are appreciated by both students and faculty. Dick Steinbock, Astoria High's amiable student body president, has a state-wide reputation as one of the best student leaders in Oregon High Schools. This was demonstrated by his excellent showing at the i952 Student Council Conference in Hood River. Born in Portland, Oregon, Dick entered AHS in l948, was class president as a sophomore, and became second vice-president of the student body in his junior year. Our prexy's studying student government and parliamentary procedure won praise for him from Mr. illard B ar, ate e ucati official. 7A I B az bertC.Bush,Ra1DhLind, M, D M!

FACU AHS teachers had a busy year belonging to one of the four faculty committees- general advisory, activity, parent handbook, and faculty handbook-selling tickets at games, and advising classes and clubs. Most of our instructors signed up for exten- sion courses. They also can boast a lOO per cent membership record in both the 3 i TY g Oregon Education Association and the new curriculum study program, introduced by Superintendent Wells to give the city teach- ers an opportunity to meet to discuss and evaluate their curriculum programs, For these activities, Astoria High teachers gave afternoons and evenings as well as days to professional work.
