may dwg middle Two years ago Mr. Pribble took over the reins as principal of Hartford City High School and in that time he has proved his interest in the students by his willingness to straighten out our snags , whether they pertain to pro- gram or extra-curricular activities. Our thanks go to Mr. Pribble for his ready advice and con- sideration. Kind, cheerful, always willing to hear our troubles, Miss Borden has served as assistant principal and girls' dean for several years. Un- der her guiding hand, new students are always made welcome and problems smoothed out easily - whether pertaining to school or social life. We're grateful and proud to have Miss Bor- den a part of our school. Coming in and going out parties highlighted the faculty and administration's social calendar this year. A farewell event for Supt. Wagner was held in December with an appreciative tribute to the Wag- ners for their long service to the community. The Blackburn family was then feted in january at a tea held in the Home Economics Room by faculty members. Pictured here is Mr. Pribble acting as 'icup-bearer to the new superintendent.

With Mr, Wagner's departure for the Crawfordsville schools, we welcomed E. Phillips Blackburn of Union City. Mr. Black- burn has shown already in many ways that he is the students' friend. His pleasing per- sonality and ready humor have made him popular among students and teachers alike. We have found Mr. Blackburn to be a top- ranking educator. Above: Leila Lewis, Raymond Maddox. Below: George Fulton, Elmer Lucas. ln january, joseph C. Wagner, our super- intendent of schools for eight years, left to take a position at Crawfordsville. We deep- ly regretted his resignation, but knew it was an advancement, and so our good wishes went with him. Mr. Wagner's keen interest in school affairs and pleasing personality endeared him to every student and teacher. We wish him every success at Crawfords- ville. lt is always necessary to have an efficient board of directors in any smooth-running organization-and we are proud- that we have that in the persons of President George Fultong Secretary Raymond Maddox, and Treasurer Elmer Lucas. These men, prominent in the business world as well as our school life, are all vitally intere'sted in all youth problems and have proved this by the efficiency with which they have performed their duties as members of our school board. Miss Leila Lewis, as clerk and auditor, has per- formed her duties with the same efficiency that has always marked her services to the school.
