Superintendent Principal Fra-nk M. Cory The teachers and students honor and re- spect the one who guides the destiny of our school. In him we find the ideal student, teacher and citizen. VVe refer to Mr. Frank M. Cory, our superintendent. - He is a good leader. Perhaps the reason for this is that each and everyone, whether he is a beginner or a graduating senior president. receives the same cordial, sympathetic, and considerate attention from Mr. C'ory. Mr. Cory earned his A.B. degree from Indiana University, and his Masters degree from Columbia University in School Ad- ministration and Supervision. Mr. J. R. Craw is assigned the task of help- ing the students tit into the action of the school. This task he performs well, aided by his six years of experience as principal of the school, and by his knowledge gained from ob- taining an A.B. and an M.A. degree at Butler l'niversity. YVith such a manager, the school moves eificiently onward as does a well oiled machine. Mr. Craw is also the teacher of the Spanish and English classes, and sponsor of the Epit- ome. Wlith all his varied tasks he finds time to reveal definite interest in art and science. Joe R. Cruw Thirty-one
