Administration and faculty members are responsible for meeting the individual needs of the student: mental, moral, social, and physical. It seems, therefore, that the medicine pipe is their proper symbol from the Indian world, for the pipe is symbolic of the human soul, body, and heart of man, as well as giving the privileged smoker contact with the spirits of the entire uni- verse. . fl,

One of the major considerations of the planning committee was the choice of an appropriate name for the school. After thoughtful considera- tion, they decided to name the school for King Philip, the great Indian warrior, who lived and waged his great war in the area. Students chose to name their varsity teams Warriors, their newspaper Smoke Signals, the senior news sheet Drum Beats, and their yearbook The Chieftain. Most important of all they chose King Philip's head for the school seal. It seems meaningful, therefore, and appropriate to use some of the symbols of Philip's Indian world as the theme for the 1965 issue of The Chieftain. 1 J u gill I , t 5 1 X J 'X xxx N t if fxfy .R . ij ' i lil if ,, kv Lxy.

This committee is responsible for finances and the appointment of school staff members. Due to increased enroll- ment, the present committee has added to its basic responsibilities that of planning the construction and operation of a new regional junior high school. Mr. Charles L. Manos, new to the school this year, is responsible for the formulation of curricu- lum, supervision of faculty and all personnel in his capacity as acting superintendent. As principal, Mr. Manos follows the policy as outlined by the committee and enforces school regulations and maintains good faculty, student, and public rela- tions. Assistant principal, Mr. Walter White is respon- sible for checking student attendance, discipline, and class and extracurricular activities. King Philip's administrators are able to func- tion efficiently because they are ably assisted by secretaries who accept the responsibility for all correspondence and maintenance of files. Financial secretary, Mrs. Mildred Hill, recently transferred to the superintend- ent's office from the guidance office. Chzirlc- II. fhfghcr as Loyalty and capability describe Mrs. Katherine Sheehan, secretary to the superintendent, for she has performed the duties of this office since the day King Philip opened. Mr. Charles Manos is the second principal to administer the duties of this office at King Philip. Mr. Manos, who has also assumed the office of acting superintendent, came to us from Middleboro High School in September, 1964. wk...
