Efficient administration handles bulk RICHARD J. MARSHALL Superintendent of Schools L. GENE WILSON Principal The invaluable services of the administration were always available to the grateful student body. The administration was called upon to organize and coordinate scholastic and extra-curricular activities. Mr. Marshall ran the school system efficiently from his office in the Westside Elementary School. Mr. Wilson and Mr. Olson survived a “bout” with clock trouble and lead the school on to another successful year. Mr. Bruce Vosseller, a graduate of Wisconsin State University, Whitewater, was hired as the business manager for the school district. He began his new duties March 1. Jefferson and the surrounding area seemed to be bombarded with adverse weather conditions during the year, which led to the problem of making the lost “snow days” up. The I. R. (Increased Responsibility) Program was also reevaluated by the administration and trial alterations were made.
