GEORGE MIEKKA ARTHUR J. TORREY Treasurer Backstage in the school system is the Board of Education, a group of men who have the most important job of all, though not many people acknowledge that fact. They are con- fronted with the problems of the school chil- dren, of the parents, and of numerous other people. When they meet once a month, or sometimes oftener, they seek to solve these problems, always trying to bring about a solu- tion which will benefit everyone, even though PAUL E. NICGRATPI President H. STERLING LUND Secretary at times their decisions may be somewhat un- acceptable to persons involved. That they were wisely chosen by the taxpayers has been proved again and again in their understand- ing-ness, industry, and good judgment. The Class of 1950 wishes 'to express its deep appreciation to the Board of Education for their patience, understanding, and the midnight hours spent in our behalf. VV. KENNETH HARRIS

Superintendent Principal ANTHONY J BRENDEL HOWARD H. PEPPER Mr, Brendel, what about that letter . . . Can you come here and check on this? Yes, Mr. Brendel is a busy man but he is never too busy to walk around the school occasion- ally. The new building and entrance are a pride and joy and very often he can be found there looking at the new humidity and temperature control system or the new trophy case. At times both Mr. Brendel and Mr. Pepper are seen discussing an important top- ic in the hall. In the morning before the tardy bell rings Mr. Pepper is busily writ- ing excuses, some white and some blue. Let's hope Norm got a white one.
