COORDINATOR OF INTRA-SCHOOL ACTIVITIES ELBERTE D . AY SUPERINTENDENT DAY IS LOCAL COORDINATOR FOR ALL SCHOOL ACTIVITIES This year, as in the past, Superintendent Elbert E. Day has again successfully super- vised the Marion City Schools. Wfar time changes have made Superintendent Dayas Work more diflicult, but he has met new problems with the same skill and foresight he has shown in his 20 years with our schools. Many of Marion,s students do not realize the importance of a superintendent to our school system. He makes the school budget and selects the personnel to carry out the details of his planning. His main job is to supervise methods, texts, courses, instruc- tion, and employment. It is due largely to his efficiency that our schools have function- ed properly along these lines. u Mr. Day Was born in Markle, Indiana. He attended Marion High School and after graduating he attended Marion Normal College, Columbia University and Indiana University. It was at Indiana University that he obtained his A.B. and A.M. degrees. Mr. Day, before coming to Marion, was a teacher in various Indiana schools for eighteen yearsg then was director of teacher training in Toledo, Ohio. He also served at Tri-State Teachers' College at Angola, Indiana, and at Indiana University. Mr. Day is very active in educational organizations throughout the state and na- tion, among those in which he has partici- pated are the National Education Associa- tion, the American Association of School Administrators and Indiana Schoolmen's Club. Mr. Day Was for several years on the executive committee of the Indiana State Teachers' Association. He also takes active part in civic affairs. Wfe, the students of Marion High School, would like personally to express our thanks to Superintendent Day for his fine Work. However, since this is impossible, We wish to express our thanks as a group through our representative, the Cactus. ikgir

HOOKER In his second year as principal of Marion High School, Orville Hooker has proved his ability in the field of education. He has tried to adapt the school to the changing needs of the war effort by changing the old nine period day to five one-hour periods, and by adding new courses such as basic mathematics, present day history and two classes of journalism. Interested not only in academic work, Mr. Hooker was active athletically, being coach of the basketball squad which was finally defeated by the state champions in the semi-hnal tournament. Mr. Hooker graduated from Anderson High School and Butler University, where he received his Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts degrees. Since he was outstanding in basketball and baseball, he received num- erous athletic awards both in high school and college. Before coming to Marion, Mr. Hooker served as athletic director in New Castle, 1510 where, in 1932 he piloted the Trojans to the state championship. After arriving in Mar- ion he was Hrst football and basketball coach, but when in 1937 he was made prin- cipal of Martin Boots Junior High School, the work of coaching football was turned over to Olaf C. Naugle. Mr. Hooker formerly directed the boys' drill in the Easter Parade and was its general chairman in 1937. By incorporating the latest subjects and teaching methods in the school, our principal is giving the students an opportunity for a well-rounded educa- tion. Especially diilicult is this task in war- time when everyone is emotionally keyed- up, and adjustments must be made that would be unheard-of in peace-time. Mr. Hooker personally encourages students to become active in some war organization. Our congratulations go to 'tHook', not only for his athletic and academic abilitv, but also for his eflorts in assisting, so ablv, individual students with various problems, 1 Y
