To Dr. Hall . . . After eleven years of devoted service as superin¬ tendent of our school, Dr. Hal O. Hall will leave this June to accept a similar position at York High School in Elmhurst, Illinois. Under the leadership of Dr. Hall, Belleville Township High School has kept pace with the times. Shortly after he became affiliated with the school the Belleville Junior College was founded. In 1955, because of increasing enroll¬ ment and a lack of space, Dr. Hall proposed a $2,800,000 bond issue which was passed by the p eople of Belleville. Although Dr. Hall has been an extremely busy man, he has always had time to smile and say hello to everyone. Many times student committees have flooded his office, asking permission and favors of him. Often, though he knew the situation to be im¬ possible, he would meet us at the door and bid us welcome. This is the man who has been our superintendent, our “boss,” and our friend for eleven years. We wish to thank you, Dr. Hall, for what you have done for our school, for our classes, and for each of us as indi¬ viduals. We wish you the best of luck in your new job which we know you will perform with utmost capability. SUPERINTENDENT, Hal O. Hall Southern Illinois University Northwestern University New York University BOARD OF EDUCATION: Row Mr. William Stiehl, president; Miss Ruth Fincloe, secretary; Mr. Elmer Peters. Row 2; Mr. Gene Hepp, Dr. Marvin Miller, Mr. Emil Schaab, Mr. Norman Stonewater, Mr. Leslie Driver, Mr. Rogers Jones, attorney. 12
