Administration Performs Executive Duties Although thirteen is supposed to be an unlucky number, Del Mar students felt lucky to have thirteen able administrators. Without their quiet, firm hand on many situations, the entire campus activity would have come to a screeching halt. Mr. Agee supervised school activities, including club meetings, dances, elections and assemblies. Mr. Agee's office was also responsible for compiling the daily bulletin, the only means of all-school announcing. The Foghorn and the Cruiser were sponsored by the same gentleman who handled public information, Mr. Lawhorne. Mr. Hervey and Dr. Hastings combined forces to handle guidance problems and student- personnel. Mr. Anderson, Mr. Maddox, Mr. Snavely, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. Venters cared for the paper work and miscellaneous things. Master timetables for the semester, student schedules, grades, and official student records were the business of the registrar's office. The business office handled the school finances and tuition fees. Among Mr. Taylor's duties were listening to sad stories concerning park- ing tickets. Mr. Prasatik kept the lawns green and cut, and attended to the over-all neatness of the scho l. Mr. Freeman kept the school stocked in necessary suv plies. The auditorium was readied for assemblies lyk. Staves. The only lady of the group, Mrs. esxial, saw that the Student Center remained a pl celof pleasant relaxation for the students. 1 l' l J. W.

Many of these courses formed the basis of the first two college years in the four year plan to earn a bachelor's degree. A student in English could choose from English literature, American literature, world literature, read- ing and composition, and creative writing. In the history department, the range included English his- tory, American history, and ancient and modern European history. This department also included government courses, Two years of French were taught in day school, while Spanish contained the two basic years with a third year of Spanish literature. Includ- ing the labs, these language classes met every day. The more eager student could also take German in night school. The talented student with a flair for art had a wide variety of courses.
