illywz gpfzingefz gupefzinfendenf Students are justly proud of Bay's dynamic Super- intendent of Schools, W. J. Springer, who is so fond of sports that he coaches track in addition to his duties as superintendent. Following graduation from Alliance High School he served a three-year apprenticeship as a tool and die maker and then worked a nine-hour night shift at this trade during his first year at Mount Union College. l-lere he received the Bachelor of Science degree. Discarding plans to become a doctor, he enrolled in Harvard University where he served as an in- structor and received his Master of Education degree. Among his many successes he can credit his sales experiences in recent years. Mr. Springer has many plans for the future ad- vancement of the Bay Village schools. With his aid Bay should occupy a prominent place among the first rate school systems in the country. SIX

Few would suspect from a casual glance at our witty principal, Mr. H. R. Secrist, that he spends much of his spare time repairing and developing electrical gadgets at homeg yet he had served in the capacity of electrician long before starting his career in education. Mr. Secrist, commonly known to the student body as Coach, came to Parkview in 1929 as a teach- er-coach after graduating from Wooster College with a Bachelor of Science degree. His Master of Arts degree from Western Reserve University he obtained shortly after being made principal here in l94O. His pleasant personality and sincere qualities insure him popularity with his students, even as his rapid rise in the teaching profession seems to in- sure superior and enduring leadership for Parkview High School.
