BOARD OF Bernard McDonald President of the Board. Elected in 1957. The Board, in an effort to decrease over- crowded conditions, notified West Milford and Kinnelon that their freshmen would not be admitted to Butler High after 1961 for the former and 1962 for the latter. Overcrowded conditions forced the ele- mentary school to rent quarters for ten classes. Among proposed plans to remedy this was a new neighborhood school and a six room ad- dition to the present school. This plan was voted down in November. An alternate plan called for an addition of 12 to 14 rooms to the present elementary school. Another problem of this year's board was filling the administrative position of high school principal vacated last June by John Sower. Vice-principal, John M. Becker was promoted to the principalship, but this, in turn, created another vacancy. A former Butler teacher, Benjamin Goldberg, was ap- pointed to the position of Vice-principal. In addition, Jessie DeGraw, the elementary school principal, retired on January I. Eugene Hastings, the former elementary school coach and director of Physical Education was ap- pointed to the position. In addition, the board was kept busy with such activities as maintaining the staffs at full strength, keeping the schools adequate and attractive as possible, and approving all purchases of supplies, books, and fuel. Edward Aquadra Finance Committee, House and Grounds, Repair Committee. Elected in 1958. Charles Dilzer Repair Committee, School Activities, Teachers Committee. Elected in 1947. 6
