am The Administration and Faculty MR. SAMUEL W. JOHNSON Trustee Traveling to far-away places during his vacations is a hobby of Mr. Samuel W. Johnson, our trustee, but he is always glad to get back to Marion County and Wayne Township, where he has been trustee for nearly seven years. He is proud to have under his trusteeship the largest school township in the State with 187 teachers in the high school and the nine grade build- ings. His chief ambition is to improve the school system of Wayne Township in every way possible. MR. CHARLES H. VANCE Principal Since Mr. Charles H. Vance came to Ben Davis as a teacher in 1915, his name has been synonymous with the progress of his Alma Mater. After leaving Ben Davis in 1917 to serve in the Army, he returned in 1920 to become the high school principal. During his 29 years as principal, Mr. Vance has helped many students to gain a more adequate foundation for their life ' s work. Through his willing efforts, Ben Davis has gained a rating as a first class commissioned high school in the State of Indiana. 12
