Fairfield High 19 f A 40 The QUILL Six You Knew On Friday, April 22, l938, at one-twenty in the morning, the fire alarm sounded the doom of our high school building. A rising sun showed a mass of twisted steel, bricks, and debris. Out of this catastrophe arose a new building for our high school, much finer than even the most optomistic individual had hoped for. Only one day of school was missed. On Monday, April 25, classes were resumed in rooms hastily prepared for us at Parsons College, where we finished the school year. The next three semesters of school saw the classes in various rooms about the square. Under our many handicaps there developed a fine spirit of loyalty and co-operation upon the part of the townspeople, the students, and the school administration. january IS, I940, dawned the day thousands of people in our community had looked forward to, for on that day the class rooms about the square were deserted. The student body had moved into its new home on East Broadway. From the time of the fire, many difficult problems were met with and solved by the members of the Board of Education. Too much credit cannot be given them for their task was difficult. During the period of construction of our new building the following men were members of the Board: John Ward, H. E. Gaumer, W. Early, H. A. Anderson, Dr. W. T. Webb, Eugene Fleming, and Booker Smith. The secre- tary of the Board, John Lindauer, Supt. W. G. Pence and Principal F. T. Saur. were untiring in the discharge of the additional burdens thrust upon their shoulders during this time. This group of men is deserving of the Commendation of us all.
