Mr. Noble Since the completion of our addition, we have had many visitors inspecting the new rooms which are Mr. Forster ' s pride and joy. Among these have been the principals of the other Windsor secondary schools, a group of teachers from Monroe County, Michigan, and the members of the Board of Education. Pictured above are the secondary school principals with Mr. Noble and Mr. Robinson, after a tasty chicken dinner served by Miss Grant ' s Home Economics class. Staff Changes This year ' s addition to the staff from the University of Western Ontario is Mr. Krol, who teaches history and physical education. Mr. Krol, a star athlete during his high school years at Kennedy Collegiate, has now taken over the coaching of the senior basket¬ ball team and has been a great help to Mr. Steadman with the senior football team. We sincerely hope that Mr. Krol will enjoy his work at Sandwich. Mrs. George Boyd graciously consented to come to Sandwich as a half-day teacher . She has after¬ noon classes of French. By the way, the little fellow who lent his talent and personality to the Mikado cast was none other than Mrs. Boyd ' s young son Stewey . Miss Marian Ellis left in her little Hillman Minx to take a new position at Leaside Collegiate in Toronto. All of us knew Miss Ellis as a good friend and excellent teacher. Everyone joins in wishing her luck and happiness in the future. Another popular teacher who has left our midst is Mrs. Pressnail, better known to the student body as Miss Spracklin. We wish her luck in her new position at Brooklin Continuation School.
