Bebtcatton VIRGIL R. HENRY Principal Senior High School Grove City College, B. S. University of Pittsburgh, M. of Ed. To Mr. V. R. Henry for his leadership and wise counselling in Conneaut Senior High School the Senior Class of 1947 gratefully dedicates this yearbook. For forty years Mr. Henry has been on the faculty, 24 of which he has served as principal of Senior High. In that span of time he has been a friend and adviser to many—students, faculty and citizens alike—sharing all their joys and sorrows. He is noted for his patience and kindness, and the serious way in which he takes his responsibilities. During this time he has guided and watched with great pleasure, the expansion of many school programs. The music department, athletic activities, good scholastic records—all have grown under his supervision. He has aided and encouraged the development of our school library, which has grown from a small room with a few books, to the first rate library we all enjoy today. There never was a finer gentleman nor a better friend than Mr. Henry; and while he will always be remembered for his share in the devlopment of our high school, his kindness and friendship will long remain in the hearts of his many friends.
