1. Short, black hair, at times waved but all times well groomed, serves as an introduction to tall and stately Mrs. King, Dean of Girls. It is easy to see that in choosing a person suitable for any position like this, we had to find a woman with tact, poise, com- posure, common sense, and an abundance of charm. In Mi's. King we have found all these qualities. Along with disciplin- ing girls, she teaches Algebra. 2. U Just where, my good young man, were you on the afternoon of Dec. 21? That is the voice of Mr. Diller. You ought to know him because he's the Dean of Boys. He understands boys, and that is why he was asked to take on this duty. WVhat is even more important, the boys like Mr. Diller. When all the pupils in the school hail him as a regu- lar fellow it is evident that they appreciate equality. 3. This year we decided to add to our list of advisers, Miss Grace Kratz. She was appointed as Dean of Classes. She aids with all social functions. She is the woman that is able to origi- nate all of those up to date, clever ideas. Just by looking at her, we realize by the sparkle in her eyes that she is not much more elderly than we students. She's one of our most refreshing, youth- ful, and human teachers. 4. Louie is our jack of all trades. He isn't serving merely one purpose in our school, but inany. He might be called a general supervisor. He is always posted on each club's activities. No minor details escape his keen eye. He deserves a great deal of commendation owing to his excel- lent managing of all school affairs. Outside of school he is one splen- did athlete. Many of us know him to be very witty as well as cheerful always. l10
