Dr. John L. Miller Superintendent of Schools Dr. Helen Flynn Director of Secondary Instruction MR. RUEL E. TUCKER Principal THE word principal the dictionary tells us, can be an adjective meaning “first in im- portance or foremost. The aptness of these definitions is well illustrated when we consider our own principal, Mr. Tucker. In all phases of our school life, we are con- scious of the debt owed to his genial but firm guiding hand. Whether rendering a decision, making the acquaintance of students, or sit- ting down to consider with others a problem of the school, Mr. Tucker showed himself always to be concerned with the welfare of the school and of each person in it. In large measure, the excellence of our educationol program and the enjoyable activities available to all are the results of having an active, interested, strong principal at the helm. 8
