Hayward, Vice-President George C. Thummg Treasurer E. Hall Neavit, and Edward P. Kerr, Iames A. Herron, Thomas P. Easton, and Roy W. Hall. They are capably assisted by Secretary Roy E. Kidd, and Solicitor Gilbert E. Morcroft. Homer I. Freese, who retired from the board after eighteen years of service, was hon- ored at a testimonial dinner. During the past year, the Board of Edu- cation has been making extensive improve- ments in the high school. The library has been enlarged, painted, and a new librarian's desk installed. This winter plans were made and begun on an extensive improvement program and the repairing of equipment. New bleach- ers were ordered for the football field which will seat twelve hundred, which with the old bleachers will increase the seating capacity to fifteen hundred. New home economics rooms, chemistry, physics, and biology laboratories will be installed during the summer. Many new improvements will be added to the audi- torium. These improvements will make a more attractive and more efficient school. Left to right-Mr. Thumm, Mr. Easton, Mr. Kerr, Mr. Morcroft, Mr. Hayward, Mr, Kidd, Mr. Neavitt, Mr. Hall, lVlr.
