12 Administration open to students’ ideas Realizing the need of a student’s point of view in running the school, the administration at John Marshall willingly accepted helpful ideas for im- proving the school. Mr. Madden dutifully stood by John Marshall in times of crisis. He was a familiar sight at bas- ketball and football games as well as all school functions. As club presidents frequently visited Mr. Madden, it was necessary to ask his approval of all fund-raising projects. Summer months kept Mr. Bagan busy as prin- cipal of the summer school. Supervising the com- puter program and keeping up with the Math- Science Center was only part of his winter job. As their disciplinarian, he worked with the fresh- men in improving their attitudes. Sophomores and juniors did not need to be reminded of Mr. Parrish’s position as a discipli- narian. He also managed the school’s budget and was night school principal. ROIS WESLEY A.

14 Mrs. Hall Mrs. Duke Secretaries back up administration A more smooth running and organized John Marshall was achieved by the secretaries. They kept records and files up to date and handled the administration’s business. In doing paper work, getting the teachers’ payrolls in order, and calling in substitute teachers, the secretaries created the background of the office. They helped line up any dances or social af- fairs held at John Marshall. It was also their job to coordinate the daily schedules for school activities.
