tail '55 Stif- JE 4- Q' 'Q JOHN C. WHITE Principal S . . S if ' fl if g Wifi sv' He Poved Your Woy AS YOU LOOK BACK over your days at Mesa High you see a very vital figure-your principal, John C. White. Mr. White has added much to your enioyment and suc- cess as a student. Taking time out from his many duties and responsibilities, he was always willing to listen to your gripes and help solve your problems. As sponsor of the Student Council, he was always ready and willing to further promote your welfare. Remember the car cavalcade to Glendale for the Jack- rabbit-Cardinal game? This was iust one activity that Mr. White okayed to help boost your school's pep. Helping Mr. White was your assistant principal, Gavin Humphrey. Some of Mr. Humphrey's main duties were coordinating all special school services for you. Some examples of these services were student insur- ance and loans. He was also in charge of the gradua- tion, assemblies, and school traffic patrol. Mr. Humph- rey directed all student body and personnel activities, class and club parties, and last, but not least in the ca- pacity which you probably knew him best-director of the attendance department. Although Mr. Humphrey had many duties, he always took the time to sign per- mits, requisitions, or assist you in solving many of the problems you faced. Yes, here were two very important men in your high school career whom you will long remember. Mr. White, your principal, takes time out from his busy day to dictate a letter to his secretary, Mrs. Harris. Twelve
