SYPULT Principal In serving his second year at the Melcher School, Kenneth Sypult has worked in two capacities -- as head coach and as principal. As head coach, he brought the foot- ball team to a 7-1 record, one of the finest in the state. He is well liked and has many friends among the students and the faculty. We hope and would like to have his services for many more years. ROWLAND R. LEWIS Superintendent Mr. Lewis gives to the Melcher School an atmosphere of welcome, secur- ity, relaxation, initiative. He serves as a professional equal with his teachers, and works with and becomes a part of the student body. Both students and teachers have an understanding relationship with him and trust in his fairness and integrity. 4.-W' -ia- BROUGHT TO YOU BY: POLK CITY GRAIN COMPANY, Pleasantville, Iowa DR. J. V.

The Melcher Football Team, defeated only once in eight games, enjoyed one of the finest seasons in its history this year. The defeat, coming in the last game of the season, was a hard fought contest at which the conference championship was at stake. We had a fine back- field even though we lost three out of four men from graduation last year. Through experience this year's line was better than last. Coach Kenneth Sypult had a difficult job this year coaching both the line and the .backfield because ofthe lack of an assistant coach, Mr. Sypult made the most of what he had and turned in one of the finest records in the state.
