HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY V Mr. Walter P. Marsh, who has served as principal of El Reno High School for six years, is constantly suggesting projects which will promote better citizenship. He led the movement to give the students more voice in the affairs of the school, thus forming a more perfect student body, when he suggested and helped to organize the El Reno High School Students’ Association. Because of his deep understanding of young people and his experience, the students, when in doubt, consult him. His lead- ership has certainly made a better school and better students. Mr. Marsh is an ardent fan of the El Reno High School Indians, never missing an athletic game or failing to give the team his complete support. In assemblies and in other student activities, he is ever helpful. On the camous and in the building, he always has a kind word and a friendly smile for each and every one. PRINCIPAL WALTER P.

Hadberry, Mr. Walter Wilson, Member Treasurer Clerk THE BOARD OF EDUCATION El Reno is proud of its Board of Education. It is composed of patriotic citizens who put service above self—service to the youth of El Reno, to the people whom they represent, and to their Country and its best interests. Its tasks have been weighty this year—weightier than usual. In addition to its normal duties there is now, the problem of training for NATIONAL DE- FENSE. This Board has met the challenge of the hour with courage. The old Lincoln Elementary School has been converted into a technical branch of the El Reno High School and Junior College. Training has beer, made available in a variety of essential skills— aviation, auto mechanics, metal work, carpentry, elec- tricity. welding, etc. It is their determination that the El Reno City Schools shall do their part in helping our nation to prepare itself for any emergency. SUPERINTENDENT PAUL R. TAYLOR A.B., M.S., Oklahoma A. and M. College, Stillwater OUR SUPERINTENDENT Superintendent Paul R. Taylor, who has served as leader of the El Reno school system for six years, is vitally interested in the all-around development of every student enrolled in the school system. While emphasizing scholastic attainment, he considers of possibly even greater importance, the citizenship training and the character development program of the school. Mr. Taylor was one of the first superintendents in the state to make provision in the school curricu- lum for training in preparation for national defense. By both word and deed, he has impressed upon all connected with the schools the skills, loyalty, and fortitude we must have to preserve our democracy. (4)
