Another win for the Scot gridders as Mr. Monroe and Coach Jones hand co-captain Dave Duwe his victory apple. Promotes Progress An enormous program of school expansion and the readjustment and improvement of teachers’ salaries are the most outstanding examples of progress in the Highland Park Independent School District since Frank Monroe became superintendent five years ago. Weekly meetings with principals and staff members of the Hi Park schools and monthly meetings with the school board keep the conscientious director alert to the individual and collective needs of the schools. Scot spirit is a primary concern of Mr. Monroe, as he originated the custom of the victory apples following each gridiron win. The enthusiastic adminis- trator is a never-failing Scot supporter who appears at every pep rally and game and attends many assemblies. Recognized as a leader among Texas school super- intendents, Mr. Monroe has served as president of the Texas Association of School Administrators. The genial leader also belongs to many organizations which deal with administration and guidance. FRANK MONROE Superintendent Highland Park Schools
