E. W. Robinson Thomas B. Portwood L. W. Fox Administration During the course of their career, Mr. Eugene W. Robinson, Mr. Thomas B. Portwood and Mr. L. W. Fox have come across many and different pro- blems. Their contributions towards educational pro- gress have been many, and all for the purpose of providing better means for administering knowledge to all the students attending independent schools in San Antonio. When decisions must be made for bettering this system every school must be taken into considera- tion. In doing so, the faculty and students welfare must also be considered. Thus the three men hold a position that is not any ordinary job, but requires from them the best they can offer. 5
