DIRECTORS Many of our students wonder at the sight of the frequent visitors who appar- ently know their way through our halls and to our classrooms. Chances are that it is either Mr. Osmond Wall, Academic Director of the high schools, Mr. Wil- liam Dobberstein, Director of Guidance, Mr. Elbert Ryerson, Art Director, Gerald Loughlin, Director of Audio- Visual Education, Mr. Glilford Hard- ing, Commercial Director in the high schools, Miss Kathryn Pollock, Home Economics Director, Mr. Roscoe Tar- bell, Industrial Arts and Vocational Education Director, Mr. George Ab- bott, Director of Music, or Mr. Roland George, Director of Physical Education and Health Instruction. Each in his specialized Held serves as a city co- ordinator who helps keep our courses unified, and our school running smooth- ly. ,lack-of-all-Hades fjak'-ov-ol' t'radz',,l iz. one zeho ran do any kind of work or business. Syn. Silas Parry. Yes, Mr. Parry is the jack-of-all-trades described by IfVr'bste'r,s Collegiate Dic- tionary. Students think of him chiefly as the man who patrols the halls and watches attendance, but these are only two of his many duties. He is also the man who takes care of the lockers and conducts the lost-and-found depart- ment. Excuses ure his major headache. Least known of his activities is teaching, which brings out his subtle humor and keeps his pupils on their toes. Surely both students and teachers of the Academy are greatly indebted to this dynamo of energy and helpfulness. MR. P RRY Standing7Harding, Tarbell, Loughlin, Abbott.
