Uftllll Witty, cheerful, helpful, and efficient-this is the way we characterize Louis I. Mathias, the popular Director of Activities. The combination of teaching and supervising those extra activities that break the monotony of our routines keeps Louie busy continually . . . Mrs. King's thorough understanding of the weaker sex makes her very much in demand as Dean of Girls. Her poise and charm lend dignity to all occasions . . . Mr. Diller, Dean of Boys, is a versatile gentleman who can be a terror to miscreants, and a sympathetic friend to those, who like himself, are striv- ing to better the school . . . The competent Dean of classes is Miss Pasch who directs the social functions and assists in all class problems . . . Miss Kratz and Mr. Swisher have already given much prestige in the newly created positions of Guidance Counsellors. Their duties are many, but these genial persons perform them well. Q Mr. Louis Mathias Ir., Mrs. Margaret King I Mr. Ralph Swisher, Miss Mildred Pasch O Mr. Arthur Diller, Miss Grace Kratz Page l Q

Page Seven Pttlllflllit All the world's a stage, and on our stage, DeVilbiss High School, Merritt Nauts is the leading rnan. His role, that of guiding DeVilbiss, is played with a skill born from a natural talent for leadership. On the stage he is a cordial, enthusiastic, and sympathetic worker for the students' welfare, while behind those scenes he strives tirelessly for greater efficiency and harmony throughout the program. Everyone is familiar with his warm smile and his helping hand, but few know of the hours he spends working to accomplish for the school those things by which we all may benefit? His intelligence and foresight have provided many advantages not common to the students of most high schools. He has repeatedly shown that he is a pal to the students, and his All for DeVilbiss attitude has given us to feel that, win or lose, we have a valuable friend. We like to appreciate the fact that, although being on the receiving end of numerous quips and imitations, he has always been a good sport and retaliated with an example of his own inimitable humor. His endearing qualities of intelligence, sympathy, and good humor have led the faculty and entire DeVilbiss student body to regard it as a rare privilege to play a part of their life's drama at DeVilbiss with Mr. Nauts as their leading man. LE R ED MAN IS Mr. Nauts, our greatly admired principal, has supplemented his natural talents of leadership with thorough study in several fields of learning at various uni- versities. He began his college career at Ohio State University where he earned his degree of Bachelor of Science. His grad- uate work was carried on at the University of Chicago and Columbia University fromtwhich he received his Master of Arts degree. He then returned to his work in the Toledo schools where he has done much to make DeVilbiss High School the outstanding school.
