a minisffzafofzs A cheery voice over the intercom, a smiling face in the hall, a helping hand when needed-these are charac- teristic of Mr. Mertz during a school day, letters of recommendation for former students, preparation of pro- grams tor next semester, conferences with pupils, parents, and teachers- these are the duties of the principal, who works many hours overtime, Both education and personal prob- lems may be talked over any day with Miss Pitman, Mr. Addleman, or Mr. Callane. They will advise a student on the course best suited to his inter- ests, his schedule for the coming semester, or a career after graduation, The minute problems of the day are solved by Miss Duncan and Miss Hop- kins. They supply anxious students with paper, pencils, change for a dol- lar, or information as to the where- abouts of some faculty member. lt isn't known just exactly what Jimmy Weiand's problem was-paper clips or a transcript of credits-but it is known that he went to the right persons for a solution.

wan,-5 fzea fo lnelp wefze Once a month the superintendent and the five members of the school board meet to decide the future of Logansport City Schools. Should more money be appropriated for chalk? Does the high school need a drivers' Page Twenty training course? Should the school city carry more insurance? The board discusses, considers, votes, and announces its decisions. These activities, plus hiring teachers and guid- ing the schools in general, constitute the work of the group. For the past seven years Mr. Carl Zim- merman has been an able superintendent, representing the board and carrying out its policies. He is probably better known to high school students, however, for his annual pre- sentation of diplomas to the graduating seniors. Inset: Mr. Carl Zimmerman, superintendent of schools. Lower: Mr. Carvel Parker, Miss Sue Blasingham, Mr. Clay Morris, Mr. Randolph Lanning, and Dr. Walter Kiesling, members of the school board.
