MR. NEFF MISS BURTON MRS. STRAITIFF JAY NEFF Principal We have been honored to welcome Mr. jay Neff, our new Principal, to Dormont High School. Mr. Neff has impressed all by his eagerness to become acquainted with the students and with the traditions of Dormont High. Among the beneficial innovations he has made are the weekly bulletin and the revised gym-hygiene schedule. He has also granted special recognition to the seniors in letting them leave the gym first after pep rallies and assemblies. We have been privileged to work with Mr. Neff and sincerely hope that he has felt the same way toward us. Miss Burton, whose manifold duties as Vice-Principal and Dean of Girls, keep her in contact with both the students and the administration, has guided us wisely through our stay at Dormont High. She has given freely from the fruits of her wide experience and has set a fine example by her readiness to assume responsibility. The school secretary, Mrs. Straitiff, is known to all for her friendly manner and her help- fulness. Under her expert supervision, the office functions efficiently at all times. MARY BURTON Lois D. STRAITIFF 9
