Seven hundred and sixty students with their related problems and activities provide the challenge of prin- cipalship to Mr. Otis M. Trice. With a capable staff coupled to his own ability of directorship, the school is prepared to cope with any eventuality. For some reason the attitude of many people toward the administration is a paradox. While in their eyes the administration is the absolute undisputable head of the school, at the same lime they believe the administration has little or nothing to do all day but answer the phone. Actually, neither view is totally correct. Cer- tainly the handling of the school’s financial af- fairs, the scheduling of classes, the tasks of stu- dent guidance, and the many, many other varied duties of the administrative staff are full time and very necessary jobs. These jobs can be roughly divided into three staffs. The office staff, consisting of Mrs. Kath- leen Brohawn and Miss Brenda Lowe, handles the financial end of school administration, in addition to letter-writing, mimeographing, rec- ord keeping, and the other vital tasks of an office. The guidance department, with Mrs. Ella Walter as head, helps students decide on col- leges and vocations. Lastly, the administrative heads, Principal Otis M. Trice and Vice-Principal William A. Brotcmarkle, handle the high-level school policy decisions and the disciplinary problems that may occur. 15 Mrs. Ella Walter, the guidance counseler of Cambridge High School, assists stu- dents in planning their future. Mr. William A. Brotemarkle is Cambridge High School’s very capable Vice-Princi- pal. He also teaches math to Seniors.

Assistant Office Secretary Brenda Lowe functions as the newest but still vital member of the CHS office team. Mrs. Kathleen Brohawn, the main- stay of the office staff, exercises the efficiency and thoroughness necessary in her job. Miss Brenda Lowe is one of the members of the CHS office staff. Included in her work is issuing late slips, signing absentee notes, and always keeping office business running in an orderly manner. Administering state tests and scholarship ex- aminations is an important part of Mrs. Ella Walter’s work as CHS Guidance Counselor. She also helps students coordinate their schedules and select colleges suitable to their needs and personality.
