WESLEY R. BURRELL Principal Mr. Burrell joined our teaching staff in 1949 as a Junior High instructor, and became principal the next year. He received his A.B. degree from Eastern Michi¬ gan University and continued his studies at the University of Michigan where he obtained his Master ' s Degree. Of course by now his characteristic bow tie, interest in guns. Civil War discussions, and taking movies at the football games are a few of the things we will remember. Then too, some students may remember the times he spoke to us about our conduct in the assemblies, halls, or about the paper on the floor. However, we feel sure his guidance has left its mark on each of us, thereby preparing us to accept our place in society. Mrs. Lounsberry has worked in the high school office for 7 years. Her helpful and ambitious dispo¬ sition have a very soothing effect on the students ' urgent problems. Her sunny smile and pleasant ways will not be forgotten.

Owo A w, CHARLES C. COGGINS Superintendent As we see Mr. Coggins coming down the walk, we are reminded of the many visits he has paid us, both while the school was being built and after we had moved into it. Mr. Coggins “took over the reins ' of the super intendency in the midst of our building program. His work was well planned and his leisure time limited while he supervised all the details connected with building a new school. Mr. Coggins was educated at Eastern Michigan University where he received a B.S. degree and at the University of Michigan, where he earned a Master ' s degree. Mr. Coggins brought with him to Galesburg his active and enthusiastic family. His wife teaches high school English and two of his children have graduated from our school. His dog “Ricky nearly replaced the “Ram as the school mascot, but the Coggins ' new pet “Cleo will find it most difficult to replace “Ricky ' s position in the main office. Mrs. Wheaton has been with our system for 18 years. She is present¬ ly serving as Mr. Coggins ' “right hand man. She is definitely an integral part of our school. 4
