Vice-Principals Fairfax has an enviable reputation in Los Angeles, both for its scholastic and athletic achievements and for its varied social activ- ities. This is due in a large measure to the wisdom and efficiency of its administrative executives. A school the size of Fairfax needs men and women at its head who are not only good scholars but also leaders well versed in handling young peopleis problems and in directing their ambitions and ener- gies into the proper channels. just such executives are lVlr. Swan and lvlrs. Brown, who assist lvlr. Detter in deal- ing with the personal problems of the stu- dents. Mrs. Brown, as Girls' Vice-Principal, may be found ready at any time in the day to see the girls and to listen to their trou- bles - troubles originating either at school or at home. An appreciation of her keen interest, her comprehensive understanding, and her ready sympathy, as well as her abil- ity to solve the problems brought to her is MILDRED R. BROWN Vice-Principal shown by the number of girls who crowd her waiting room. ln addition to her regu- lar responsibilities, Mrs. Brown finds time to sponsor the Alphas. l-lolding the office of Boys' Vice-Princi- pal, Mr. Swan guides the boys through high school with wise counsel and discipline. l-le is strict in keeping the boys in line and in settling their disputes, but in giving them advice he is cheery and encouraging. Mr. Swan supervises the boys' athletic contests and sponsors the Knights, the boys' honor organization corresponding to the Alphas. Important to the administration of the school is the office staff. Fulfilling innum- erable duties that call for detailed, careful work, the members of this group form a backbone of Fairfax daily life. Their work in the attendance office, in the main office, and in the library is at all times necessary to the smooth operation of the Fairfax ma- chine. DE WITT S. SWAN Vice-Principal
