edication ln dedicating this volume of the Craftsman, The Senior Class of l956, in keeping with the spirit of Mr. M, wishes to honor one person to whom it feels the greatest portion of credit is due for Macomber's success, one person who has been closely associated with Macomber since its origin, and its only principal until his retirement, December l,- l955, Mr. F. M. Dannenfelser. After Mr. Dannenfelser was graduated from high school in his native New York City, he continued his studies at Columbia University, the University of Wisconsin, The Ohio State University, and the University of Toledo, from which he received his Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees. After working in industry for a number of years, Mr. Dannenfelser became an instructor in the Muskegon High School and the Hackley Manual Training School, Muskegon, Michigan. He was later employed by the Bethlehem Steel Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: His outstanding record there attracted the attention of Dr. William B. Guitteau, then Superintendent of Toledo Schools, and Mr. Dannenfelser heeded the call to become the head of the industrial arts department of Waite High School. ln i922 he was made Director of Veteran's Rehabilitation Training, and then he assumed teaching duties at Libbey High School where he became head of its industrial arts department. After serving as head of the vocational education depart- ment of Woodward Technical High School, Mr. Dannenfelser was installed as the first principal of the Vocational High School in 1928. i Active in civic and professional affairs, our former principal has been much in demand for speaking engagements, leadership, and organizational work. As an expert in the training of supervisors and foremen, Mr. Dannenfelser has led several conference groups in management development for such Toledo firms as the National Supply Company, the DeVilbiss Company, Dohler-Jarvis, the E. W. Bliss Company, and the Acklin Stamping Company. ln addition, Mr. Dannenfelser has led conferences and study groups throughout Ohio for the Ohio State Department of Education, Division of Trades and lndustries. As a member of the Masonic Order, it may be noted that he is enrolled in the Toledo Commandery No. 7 of the Knights Templar and the Zenobia Shrine A.A.O.N.M.S. For many years Mr. Dannenfelser has given invaluable service as a vestryman of Trinity Episcopal Church of Toledo. Mr. Dannenfelser has made significant contributions of service to the American Vocational Association and to the National Association of Foremen, and he is a life member of each group. He is also a member of the Ohio Education Association, the National Council of Local Administrators of Vocational Education and Practical Arts, the National Association of Secondary School Principals, and the Ohio High School Principals' Association. Two organizations in which he has taken particular interest are the Toledo Personnel Managers' Association and the Foremen's Club of Toledo. During his thirty-six years of service in the Toledo Public Schools, Mr. Dannen- felser has shown great zeal in the promotional and organizational work of vocational education in the full-time day school program, the half-time co-operative plan, which he inaugurated in l926, and the apprentice and the adult evening school programs. For his foresight, for his ability to analyze and organize, for his many achieve- ments, it is a privilege to honor this pioneer of vocational education in Toledo. His spirit, his enthusiasm, and his belief prompted the origin of Macomber Vocational High School. Mr. Dannenfelser-often called Mr. Vocational Education -has made the people of Toledo conscious of the needs and benefits of vocational training in an industrial center. He has shown his faculty and students that skill does pay, and that a craftsman should get things done right and on time. Mr. Dannenfelser, through his interest, achievement, and leadership, has made Mr. M of the past, the present, and the future a person of fine attitudes, high ideals, and outstanding accomplishments.
