Principal Mr. Jason J. Smith Don't forget your hot lunch money! Mr. Smith defines his goal at Chester as the broadening of the curricular and the extra-curricular program to serve the greatest needs of the greatest number of people . Under his administration, the agri- culture, home economics, social science, mathematics and band programs have been expanded and intensified. The school lunch and driver training programs have also been inaugurated. He received the B. S. Degree from Ball State Teach- ers College and the M. S. Degree from Indiana University. Among his other duties he finds time to co- sponsor the senior class and teach the senior government class. Advisory Board Left to right: Mr. George Harshman, Mr. Clarence Schilling, Mr. Robert Beery. Chester Township is fortunate in having progressive community-minded men on its Advisory Board. In the improvements made by Mr. Ulmer, he has had the whole-hearted backing of the Board. We express our ap- preciation to them through Ravelings. County Superintendent Mr. C. L. Vandegrift Mr. Vandegrift, a graduate of Manchester College with the B. S. Degree and Indiana University with the M. S. Degree, has been County Superintendent for thirteen years. During this time he has advocated higher school standards and increased efficiency. We are glad that he feels that Chester is one of the best rural high schools in the state. Page Ten
