FDR HIS FINE WE DEDICATE This 1943 Annual to Mr. Frank Coulter, director of vocational education for the past eighteen years. Mr. Coulter, a Chester resident for many years, received most of his education in the city schools. In 1914 he was graduated from Columbia University. Before coming to Chester High School, Mr. Coulter taught in New York, New Jersey, and Virginia. In addition to his professional training, he has had thirteen years of industrial experience in the American Steel Foundries at Thurlough. In 1925 the vocational department was quite different from the present one. The teaching staff consisted of only two shop instructors and two teachers of related subjects. The enrollment was only forty students. Today more than three hundred boys are taught by seven shop teachers, and six others instruct them in related subjects. From two shops— machine and patternmaking—the department has expanded until it now includes general woodwork, printing, and sheet metal shops for industrial arts pupils, and an electric shop, all housed in the new vocational building, which was opened in 1941. Industry favors Chester High School's vocational graduates because of the thorough training they re- ceive and the high standards which the department maintains. Therefore, the entire class of '43 salutes this vocational head in appreciation of his splendid work. FRANK COULTER DIRECTOR OF VOCATIONAL EDUCATION 12

ENCOURAGED PURSUITS RY The Service Clubs of the city. Yearly the Lions fete the football team at luncheon and award a trophy to the most valuable player. Each Optimist sponsors a boy, who in turn becomes a member of the Junior Optimist organization. Responsible for the vocational guidance program in Chester High School are the Rotarians and Business and Pro- fessional Women. Clinics are held for juniors, and seniors spend a day with someone employed in the type of work they think they will like to pursue. Kiwanians recognize sportsmanship and scholarship when they conduct their annual basketball tournament to crown a Delaware County champion team, and honor those pupils ranking high in their studies. Throughout the year two senior boys are luncheon guests for a period of a month. This year, lives of juftiors and seniors were enriched when those sponsoring the community fund drive selected them as student speakers.
