Koa cf f fducativn MR. R. G. MITCHELL DR. E. .I. HUMMEL MR. A. A. BOWHAY J Keynoting the activities of the Board of Education this year was the problem of reconvert- ing its policies to peacetime conditions. A great number of instructors returned from the services to resume positions occupied during their absence by teachers employed on a temporary basis. A considerable sum of money was appropriated for projects designed to better the appear- ance of the campus. Among these were a drainage system for the athletic field, a concrete curb- ing around the track. a baseball backstop, and a paved walk extending around the gyms. To facilitate the handling of crowds in the swim gym, fences were erected so that only one entrance to the building remainsg entrance to the grandstands was made easier by means of walk-ins. A retirement plan for non-certiicicated employees was enacted by the Board to coincide with the state program. and Mr. John C. Schwartz was appointed Director of Visual Education, in charge of classroom movies. records. etc. At present the Board is considering plans submitted by a local architectural firm concerning the property on Heath Avenue adjoining the school, which call for parking areas. tennis courts. a horticultural laboratory, and possibly a student center. rf 'if in-re
