Superintendent R. G. Smith, Mr. George Hurlbutt, Mr. Ralph Fink, Mr. E. J. Brockway, Mr. Clarence Hogle, Mr. Delbert Douden, Mr. Clyde Newton Few people, while yet in school, realize or appreciate the efforts of the Board of Education. Too often the only notice they pay the organization is at Commencement time, at election time, or perhaps when they see the name on the little room at the left of the main entrance into the hallway of the school building. However, with in the confines of this Sancturn Sanctorum , the Board of Education, representing the community, makes many decisions relative to the administration Of this local educational institution. They select the faculty, who teach the children of this communityg they hire the bus drivers, who safely transport the country children to and from schoolg they hire a custodian, who makes it possible for us to live in gf warm, clean buildingg they scheme to make the income of the district comply with the necessary expenditures for and adequate curricular and extra-curricular program, they make decisions relative to replacements of worn-out equipment and the installation of new equipment to keep the school plant in an efficient and economicafoperating conditiong and many times they are confronted with problems which demand a declaration of their own ideals and standards of citizenship for which they wish their school to stand. To these people, we wish to extend our heartfelt appreciation for the non-remunerative service they have rendered throughout the years of their terms. Pres. of the Board of Education -- E. J.
