they offered cooperation ' 3 0 FRIENDLINESS and cordiality have become synomomous with our principal, Arthur E. Harris, whose presence in the corridors of Brighton always means a warm greeting. It would seem that with more than 700 pupils, he would not know too many of us by name, but such is not the case. Mr. Harris knows not only the majority of names, but takes an interest in all our activities. Under Mr. Harris' leadership, BHS has continued its high academic standard and lively school spirit. Got a problem? See Mr. Smith. Since this Mr.Anthony graced our portals, we have found a soft shoulder and an under- standing manner which send tus in his di- rection. Everything from passes to truancy, is in his realm. What would we do without him! Compiling figures, keeping records, and being ready with a pleasant smile characterize our ladies of the oFrice.

We sought guidance, William E. Hawley Superintendenz of Scboolr - Leading the Board of Education is A. Ralph Eckberg, president, Charles Ritten- house, vice-president, Mrs. Henry Craw- ford, clerk, E. Reed Schutt, and Warren W. Hastings. Robert Morrow is treasurer, and Rae Clark, attorney. Q WILLIAM E. HAWLEY's cheery smile and warm-hearted personality have added much brightness to our high school life. Though busy with the supervision of the new building projects, he still finds spare moments to catch up on our current high school activities so that he is always right in step with our times. Teachers, students and administrators seek- ing guidance always hnd Mr. Hawley ready with helpful advice and encouragement. General supervision of three buildings, two building projects, a teaching staff of over ninety, a large maintenance force, and over 2100 pupils is a task giving Mr. Hawley very little free time for his favorite pastimes of golf and bowling. With Mr. Hawley's vision and practical experience of years in education, Brighton is assured of educational facilities unrivaled in the area. A sad note marked the passing this year of a former member, Mrs. Letitia S. Miles. Serving from 1927 to 1945 and as clerk until 1947, Mrs. Miles will long be remem- bered for her loyalty and interest. E. Reed Schutt, Charles G. Rittenhouse, Mrs. Henry B. Crawford, A.
