UUH SUPERIIITEIIDEHT Anyone coming into Harris -Elmore School during the past year to see the superintendent, Mr, Lamar Hetrick, would, of course, go to the office. If he were lucky, he found Mr. Hetrick there. But he was just as likely to start a search which might end in one of Mr. Hetrick's industrial arts classes, on the roof, in the basement, on some high scaf- folding in the new auditorium, or in the elementary grades where he mi ht be checking on a nose that got in the way of a iaseball bat. Many times his supervising duties included more than the field of education. His eighth year as the local superintendent was certainly a full one, with the long drawn-out im- provements in the building going on all year. The program which the Board of Education had set in motion several years ago drew to a close. Signs of its success were visible all over the grounds --a .stadium-bus arage put into use in the fall of 19493 newly remofeled homes for the vocational de- partments--alglriculture in the old bus garage and home ec in t e old cafeteria kitchen and storage rooms, a completely new heating and Ventilating system, fluorescent lights all over the school build- ingg and the beautiful new auditorium-gymnasium. Mr. Hetrick could often be found climbing around in his shirt sleeves inspecting the work. In addition, he tau ht three classes, was a senior class and Student Council advisor, faculty managerof atliletics, scoutmaster, and president of the Sandusky Bay Conference. Although his job kepthim workin day and night, he also maintained outside interests. He was chairman of the local unit of the Salvation Army, trustee ofhis church, member of Kiwanis, a Mas on, and member of a bowling team, During the Christmas recess he attended the Ohio Education Association meetings in Columbus, as the delegate of the Ottawa County Education Association. Of course, any spare time which he could find or make in his busy schedule was devoted to his family. ' A man who alway puts the welfare and future of his students first, Mr, Hetrick is becoming a well-known and much respected educator in this part of the State, -iw , 3
