Mr. Oliver Corbin Vice -Principal Mr. Stanley Shaver Superintendent CIL auicie us to our Goals ' r Mr. Shaver sits at the head desk of Covina Union High. Besides being prin- cipal, he is also the superintendent of this district which includes Baldwin Park, West Covina, Charter Oak, and Irwindale. Any matter that has to do with making the school run smoothly calls for his consideration. He finds time and considers it a pleasure to help and advise students a ny hour of the day. We are grateful for his unwavering loyalty. We find our vice-principal, Mr. Corbin, in the attendance office every morning around 8:15. He may be chatting with the students or eyeing the late-comers. We have appreciated his serious heart- to-heart talks and his friendly interest in every student. Our association this year with Mr. Corbin has been a pleasure — from the severest task of giving detention to the signing of absence cards.

Dr. Verne Ross Principal of Adult Education The tall grey gentleman, whose kind and under- standing face will be long remembered around the campus, the man who is ready and willing to help both students of the day and of the night is Dr. V. R. Ross. He has been principal of Covina ' s Adult Edu- cation Department since it was established. We wish to acknowledge our appreciation for his years of help and inspiration and hope he gives many more. There is a group of adults whom we students of Covina rarely see or know. They meet on the first Monday of every month. They put in many tedious hours so that we may have our needs fulfilled. A few examples are the recent construction of new buildings, basketball courts, and a much needed park- ing lot. We, the students of Covina High School, would like to extend our thanks and appreciation to the Board of Directors for their untiring efforts in the betterment of our school. IllHen of leadership Studying plans of new buildings are the Board of Directors: Mrs. Lela M. Heffner. Dr. C. E. Pancoast, Mr J. D. Reed, Jr., Mr. Truman Johnson (president of the Board of Directors), Mr. Joseph F. Wood, and Mr. Stanley Shaver. ,
