THE SCHOOL BOARD 'aa The Boswell Borough School Board consists of five members, each chosen in the borough election for a term of six years. The members choose their own officers and meet on the second Tuesday of each month. To this board falls the duty of selecting teachers, courses, and bud- geting expenses to meet the income from taxes. Since the outbreak of the war, many changes have been made in the faculty and the board itself. At the very time of Rex Collium publication, one of the members of the board is awaiting his call to the Navy. Through this blackout , however, Boswell High School has Hourished as a guiding light in the community. Officers: President ..... ............ lv Tilton B. Mowry Vice President ...... ,,...

.ADMINISTRATION ANOTHER YEAR OF SCHOOL The response from students and teachers during another year of world conflict has been excellent. The standards of class room work, have been held ata high peak. It is heart- ening to see the fine spirit in the school when there are many reasons for sadness and worry. Our boys in all parts of the world are writing but one message to us. That message is always. Keep the students busy, we realize how important Math and science a1'e now. They realize that high school graduation and good work are a great asset in the Armed Forces. MR. SPEICHER, B. S., M. A. University of Pittsbuzgh Supervising Principal Our boys and girls are scattered all over the world. They talk about such places as Salerno, Sicily, Bouganville, Solomons, Kiska, Guadalcanal, Arawa, Corrigedor and Dutch Harbor, as readily as we used to talk about San Francisco, Denver, and other places on our own continent. This means more than a year at school in enriching our lives and the lives of those who before the year closes have made the supreme sacriiice. Our activity program has been carried on this year even though food and gas rationing were im- portant. We have had a complete program of ath- letics, play production, publication ot' the annual. the Newspaper, many clubs, a tin drive, and War Stamp and Bond Sales. Our teaching staff was intact and the spirit oi' good will in the school and community was fine. Our minds are fixed on the boys and girls who serve our country as another year of school closes.
