N. G. BRYAN Mr. N. G. Bryan until recently was principal of the Graham High School, but he now is principal of the Graham School District. The students have benefited from the many clubs and activities which he has helped organize. In the last few years Mr, Bryan has been deeply interested in seeing that our new high school was planned and completed. The student body is appreciative of his genuine interest and able guidance. School MR. C, R. BENSON Since we have entered our new Graham High School, Mr. C. R. Benson has served as our principal. His leadership and guidance have helped us in many ways. Even though he has many responsibilities as administrator, he also finds time to serve as a twelfth grade English teacher, advisor for the school paper, and basket- ball coach. The students of Graham High appre- ciate his help and interest in them. Roard Graham High School is greatly indebted to the members of the school board, who have taken such a great interest in helping to provide a new school for the students. The members are Rev. Eugene Hancock, Mr. Hal Farrell, Dr. W. C. Goley, Mr. Myron Rhyne, and Mr. Griffin McClure. aN Faculty .MRS.
