K. D. WALDO Sujmrintendent A jovial countenance, twinkling eyes and a hearty laugh are synonymous with Mr. Waldo. Not so well known to the high school students of today, Mr. Waldo, never- theless, is a most important factor in the life of every student. lt is he who synchron- izes the machinery of the entire school system, so that progress from the grades through the high school is a smooth process. Having been once principal of the high school, Mr. Waldo has a sympathetic understanding of our problems and is able to cope with them in relation to the Welfare of the system as a whole.

O. V. WAI,'I'lZIiS Principal An untiring worker, keenly sympathetic to the students' side of the question, lNIr. VValters has been an able guiding rod for East High. Never is he too busy to listen to our ideas, his oHice often being the scene of animated discussions, subjects ranging from the welfare of the Senior Class to the latest aspects of the New Deal. Stern, perhaps, at times and often strict, yet we remember him as a real friend and a wise counselor. Always open to new ideas, he listens with interest to any problem presented to him, never failing to go direct to the heart of the matter, with workable suggestions for remedying any defect he may detect. VVe, the Senior Class, are deeply grateful to hir. VValters for his unfailing effort and encouragement towards our success. ..7..
