Trepates and maintains Our Tfathwags Those to whom we look for planning our pathways through Logansport High School are the superintendent of schools, the school board, the principal, and the deans. The super- intendent, Mr. Groninger, and the school board, consisting of Mr. l-letzner, Mr. l-lershberger, and Mr. Booher, are re- sponsible for making available to the students of Logansport a good system of education, well-built, modern schools, and well-trained, capable teachers. They offer to every student the opportunity to choose the course which will best suit his needs. For the student who is planning to enter college, the academic course is offered. The commercial, home economics, and industrial arts cours- es help those who will take their places in the world imme- diately after graduation. Elective subjects, offered to all students, encourage and promote the development of in- dividual interests. Mr. Zimmerman, our principal, is always ready to help us make wise selections in our courses. With a zest and a zeal all his own he performs his duties of supervising the enrollment, planning the yearis program, and charting new courses. He is assisted by Miss Bradfield in keeping the school records and in the other clerical work of the office. Our deans, Mr. Ferguson and Miss Pitman, have always been ready, willing, and able to help us find our way out of difficulties. We confide our personal problems to them and they in return help us to adjust ourselves to the school pro- gram. Their dependable understanding and assistance help make our school paths smoother and happier. These administrators prepare the paths which we the stu- dents follow through Logansport High School.

Go Us Our 'Cveachers mean friendliness . . lwxgi- Ten L. H. S. places emphasis upon practical training in manual arts Although the present crisis has not caused a great upheaval in our school system, it has been the contributing factor in such changes as have been made. The main changes have come in the industrial arts department. Beginning the second semester a plan was adopted whereby boys majoring in shop took all their academic subjects in the morning and worked in the shop all afternoon. This permitted them to gain more experience in industrial work before graduating. A new system of cafeteria eating ushiftsn was arranged by Mr. Zim- merman, allowing students in assemblies to leave ten minutes before the mob of other hungry students descended upon the cafeteria. To accom-modate the increased number of students, the art room and cooking classroom were turned into dining rooms. The commercial classes were combed from time to time for stenographers and typists, and commercial majors were snapped up or contracted for in ad- vance, so great is the demand for their services in war time. In the art department students were busy with projects. They made artis- tic favors for the Red Cross and posters for Fire Prevention Week. Two students had their textile designs accepted in the state contest and entered in the Scholastic national contest. i 1
