MISS SYLVIA RYIN MR. WILLIAM GOODWIN DEANS MISS SYLVIA RYIN Dean of Girls As Dean of Girls at Galesburg High School, Miss Ryin has again done a fine job with the many duties and problems which have confronted her during the past school year. She is comparatively new as Dean but she has accepted the added re- sponsibilities very cheerfully and has com- pleted her tasks with a quiet efficiency which enables her to clear away the ob- stacles before her. Miss Ryin has proved herself a capable advisor for the Girls' Service League as well as an efficient co- sponsor for the Student Council. Her warm, friendly personality and her deep concern for the problems which con- cern the girls in school have assured them that she is the good friend and wise ad- visor to whom they can turn if necessary. Miss Ryin has easily gained their confi- dence and respect which she so well deserves. MR. WILLIAM GOODWIN Dean of Boys As Dean of Boys at Galesburg High School, Mr. William Goodwin has again fulfilled a job seldom excelled by any man who shares his very important profession. He has not only been in charge of student welfare but has played an extremely im- portant role as advisor to Boys' Forum and co-sponsor of the Student Council. Mr. Goodwin also found time to help the students with their program schedules, their activities, and their graduation plans. Although his time was occupied with many of these duties, he always found time to help those students who came to him with their problems and questions. Mr. Goodwin has acquired through his years with students of high school age an understanding of today's youth. His knowledge has enabled him to guide suc- cessfully during his four years service, the lives of the boys at GHS.

PRINCIPAL A key figure in the halls of Galesburg High School this year was Principal W. T. Wooley, who served another year as ad- ministrator for the affairs of the high school. The drawing up of building recommendations, the employ- ment of good teachers to bene- fit our Galesburg High School youth, and the handling of com- munity relations and school finances were among the many duties for which Mr. Wooley was responsible. Through his years of experi- ence with tomorrow's citizens, Mr. Wooley has acquired an in- creasing ability to make friends with the students and gain their confidence, which makes it pos- sible for him to help them with any problem which might arise. He has gained the respect of all the students in the high school and he well deserves it. His warm personality, his demo- cratic ideals, and his aggressive- ness for school improvement have been instrumental in mak- ing Galesburg Senior High a better school. MR.

FACULTY The individuals who have taught us our 'readin, writin', and 'rithmatic', will remain vividly in our memories for years to come. ln every organization, in every classroom, the teachers are ever present to participate in the various activities and to give freely supervision and advice Whenever they are needed. To teach and mold the minds of the future Important Conference Ig ,ha hd, fhey dg 6 citizens of the United States is a big job and an important one. But the members of our faculty have tackled this job and challenged any op- position with true interest and willingness to succeed. They are giving us the education and understanding necessary to go into this World with confidence that comes only from their cooperation and the knowledge We gain through their guidance. A teachers square dance club was organ- ized a few years ago, and still offers fun for the faculty members. Iohn Griffith, Visual Aid Director, has been the caller for these dances.
