Mr. Cecil Gabler, Principal, as administra- tive head of the school, determines policy and makes those necessary split second cle- cisions to help the school run smoothly. He also counsels parents, teachers and students, when problems arise. Mr. Darl Gatchell helps students solve their problems, choose their colleges, and keep their attendance records straight. Along with his duties as Dean of Boys and Assistant Principal, Mr. Gatchell is head adviser of the Student Council. .LP 1.1 .V-in ...,f.V,. Agri L' 3-,:,..,. Miz, 'E A cheery smile always greets the girl who has been absent or tardy, when she sees Miss Isabel Freer, Dean of Girls. Miss Freer does her counseling in addition to her regular classroom duties. New surroundings and new responsibilities face Miss Elizabeth Pace, General Office Secretary and Secretary to Mr. Gabler.

S the guiding hand Health, Education, and Welfare, could well be the title of the people shown in this picture. Mrs. Lois Ansley, School Nurse, visits all schools and checks continuously on contagious diseases. She also arranges the pre-school clinics. Dr. Allen Schmuller, School Psychologist, administers tests and evaluates them with the pupil, teachers, and parents. He also tests pupils who are candi- dates for special classes. The Speech and Hearing Specialist, Karl Ailing, screens stu- dents for defects and then administers cor- rections. The managing of a school system requires many men and much time. ln Marion there are three men who handle much of this work. Mr. Lester Dickey, Superintendent, helps administer the Board of Education's policies with the help of all other personnel. Order- ing of instructional supplies and co-ordina- tion of curriculum are handled by Mr. Harold Edwards, Director of Instruction. Mr. Joseph Whisler, Director of Pupil Personnel investi- gates severe non-attendance cases and serves as the contact man between the school and Juvenile Court.
