Deane Wiley, administrators assumed new positions to run Fohi more efficiently. Wilmar H. Grossbach was pro- moted from counselor to assistant principal. Mrs. Esther Steelman, ex-counselor, took the iob of Dean of Girls. The position of registrar was given to George E. Henney, ex-math instructor. Eric Birch, Charles F. Massey, and Robert M. Redfield took charge of the Guidance Center and served as counselors to the students. They advised students on their high school curriculum, future plans in college, and helped them in finding outside part- time work. Besides being advisors of education, counselors were often called upon to help solve many of the personal problems of high school students. Administrators have a maior role in the educa- tion of youth today. Without the service and guid- ance of these people, it would be impossible for students to achieve not only success in high school but also in the future in whatever field they choose. Fohi can be well proud of its administrators who serve the students, citizens, and the country in turning out the best-educated Americans possibie. Charles F. Massey, Robert M.
