JUNIOR HIGH PRINCIPAL VAN N. HURST SENIOR HIGH PRINCIPAL LEO M. DENNY The monumental job of the making such a large institution of learning run smoothly is largely placed on the shoulders of these two capable men. They not only meet the challenges of modern-day education but they also know personally all those students who will be going out to confront those challenges. Both Mr. Denny and Mr. Hurst are highly respected in the community of Atchison as well as at Atchison High School. What good would a school be without an efficient office staff? Someone has to keep the wheels moving and it is to these two splendid women that the plaudits are given. Mrs. Dora McCoole, left, handles the financial end of the work while Mrs. Jus- tine Thomas takes care of the secretarial duties for the two principals. The school is losing Mrs. McCoole, the former Dora Myers, to a housewifery career. With her goes the best wishes of everyone con- nected with AHS and they know she will make the same success in her new field as she did here. MRS. DORA McCOOLE AND MRS. JUSTINE THOMAS
