George A. Beck, our principal, holds two de- grees-B. A. and M. A. He has attended several colleges and universities including Adrian College lMichiganl, Western Maryland College, and the universities of Illinois, West Virginia, Ohio State, and Wisconsin. Mr. Beck is a member of the Kiwanis Club, the Commission on Secondary Schools of the North Central Association of Col- leges and Secondary Schools, the Executive Board of the Minnesota High School Principals' Association, the Minnesota Education Association, and the National Education Association. His earliest ambition was to study medicine. He is chiefly interested in outdoor sports, such as athletics, fishing, and hunting. From what we hear, the Becks don't have to worry about red points. Mr. Beck believes that we must create in this country a higher standard of living for a higher percentage of the people, thus achieving a more perfect democracy as a nation. Mr. Beck says that at least one of the funda- mental agencies in achieving this obiective is the public school. I am therefore interested in better educational advantages for all people. Generally and specifically I hope to be a better school man in that growth. M Kenneth J. Talkovich has very ably taken over the iob as Assistant Principal at Central for this year. Mr. Talkovich attended Superior State Teachers' College where he received his B. Ed. degree. He remembers that his first ambition was to be a racing car driver. Although his chief interests center about his home and garden, he is very fond of winter sports, and spends much time skiing and skating. Mr. Talkovich be- longs to the Minnesota Education Association, National Education Association, and a church men's club. His greatest hope for our post-war world is that we have full employment for all and that world-wide peace be established.
