The Faculty and the Administration established at La Salle High School is one of unity and sincerity. This ever expand- ing nucleus of Christian Brothers and competent lay teachers is dedicated to the educational development of the stu- dent body. They give the students four years of academic training and prepara- tion so that we may be able to become Christian leaders and men of foresight and maturity. The Faculty's influence on the student is not only manifested in the classroom. The faculty sets the school policies con- cerning social activities, sports, and dis- cipline. The faculty leads, moderates, and advises the students to become guardians of Christian truth. Through Cur Years of Growth

Brother Stephen Martin, F.S.C., M.A. University of California Principal As the Principal of La Salle, Brother Martin has the responsibility of directing the growth of the school.. This direction takes the form of both physical and spiritual encouragement and discipline. In the physical sphere is the attention to the ath- letic needs of the student body. Brother Martin must see that these needs are satisfied and that the stu- dent body grows strong in body. More importantly his guidance takes the form of academic and moral philosophy. lt is important that the mind not be allowed to vegetate while the body grows, but rather grow in coniunction with the body and thus form a mature man. Brother Martin, then is the person to whom the success or failure of La Salle might be attributed. lf in the final analysis those boys who have graduated from La Salle are still boys then charge ft to their failure, but if they are men then charge their suc- cess to their school and from there to its principal. Men to Shape Our Morals . . . Brother Richard Emery, F.S.C., M.A. lCand.l University of San Francisco Vice-Principal Brother Emery, as Vice Principal and direct sub- ordinate of Brother Martin, is charged with the carry- ing out of the Principal's philosophy. As Dean of Studies, Brother Emery must carry the philosophy of the school into the realm of academic policy. He must evaluate the program of studies and make such changes or additions as will aid the stu- dent in his mental growth. ln his capacity as Discipliner it is the task of the Brother Vice-Principal to insure that the student body maintains an attitude both healthy for growth of knowledge, and satisfactory for the enioyment of high school. Brother Emery as Guidance Director, finally must see that the growth of the students is in fact a reality and that they will become men.
