DR. E. H, MEIION How do our schools rate compared to the Russians? Questions like this one are of vital concern to all of us. So much so that our very competent superintendent went over to ask land seen the Russians first hand. CHS. as well as the two junior highs. and sixteen grade schools under Dr. Mellon's charge. fared the comparison well. Very possibly we owe our good rating to the man who has carried the responsibility of the Unit IV schools on his shoulders for seventeen years and with his guidance. our chances of staying on top are very favorable. BOARD OF EDUCATION Seven elected members. a clerk. and the superintendent of schools make up the hard working members of our Board of Education. These civic minded people work many hard hours without pay to formulate the policies for Unit IV. They are concerned not only with buildings, school buses, facilities for each of the buildings, but they also interview candidates to teach in our schools. For their many hours of unselfish service to the community and especially to CHS. we vote a big Thank you to our Board. School? Planners Aim Toward uture BOARD OE EDUCATION.

MISS NELL ZEHNER Thy presence is gracious and kind can be truthfully said by every student in Champaign High of our Vice-Principal, Miss Nell Zehner. VJe all know it's not an easy job to keep over twelve hundred stu- dents happy with their schedules, but some- how twice a year Miss Zehner seems to do the trick beautifully and with ease. Girls especially reap the talents of this friendly and conscientious woman. for her door is never closecl to anyone who has a problem or just drops in to chat. How does she manage to do all these things? lt must have something to do with the respect and admiration she has earned from the students each year since her arrival in l946. Vv'hat would we do without her. P 'Mez I H6419 ou. 'J MR. FRED MAJOR The business of the school is to help boys and girls to grow up to be the best men and the finest women that they ever can be. Mr. Fred Major is certainly trying to carry on the business of C.H.S., and a good job he does. A former Cham- paign High football coach. Fred has had much experience in working with boys and he knows how to counsel them. Although he is always busy, the boys ind him sym- pathetic anfl fair in guiding them. and many boys. finding themselves with a free moment or two, go into Fred's office Hjust to talk. This man has justly won the admiration of both students and parents. during his many years at CHS.
