A.B., M.A. B.S., M.S. North Texas State Teachers College, University of Texas, A.E.F. University of Beaunc, Cote d'Or, France. Principal We have had the honor and pleasure of Mr. C. Phil Peters' guidance and supervision for four consecutive years. This is the longest period in the history of Plant High School during which we have had the same man as principal. Mr. Peters originally came from Texas. I-Ie attended the University of Texas, North Texas State Teachers' College, A.E.F. University Beaune, and Cote d'Or, France, receiv- ing B.S. and M.S. degrees. Before coming to Plant, he held the office of principal of Washington Junior High School here in Tampa for nine years. To the student body as a whole, he sends this sincere message: Schools in dictator-governed countries furnish guidance programs for the purpose of regimenting thoughts and in- terests for the use of the totalitarian state. In our democracy our guidance efforts are used to promote the interest of the individual and his experience in the larger social group. Your entire Plant faculty is sincerely anxious to help each of you start now on the course that will help you to take the most ejfective part that you are capable of taking in the life that lies ahead of you. Wesleyan College, Columbia University Assistant Principal Miss Gladys Anthony has been a member of the Plant High School Faculty for fourteen years. She came to Plant when the school was first opened in 1927. 'An A.B. degree was awarded to her at her graduation from Wesleyan, and later, she procured her M.A. degree from Columbia University. She is a native of Georgia. She be- came Dean of Women at Lander College in Greenwood, South Carolina, before coming to Tampa. Her following message shows the thoughtful kindness for which all Plant students remember her: ln an old Dutch Lullaby the old moon asks the three, very young travellers, 'Where' are you going, and what do you wish? Those of us who are most interested in your de- velopment often ask you the same questions, because we know that until you are ready to answer those questions you can make very little advancement in your efforts to secure an education. Give your advisers the opportunity to help you to find the best possible personal answers to the ques- tions by frankly discussing your desires with us. If those wishes are worthy ones and are capable of fulfillment, noth- ing shall prevent your achieving them. Miss GLADYS ANTHONY
