AND ADMINISTRATORS MR. WALTER W. McGINNES In 1943, Mr. W. W. McGinnes was appointed assistant superintendent of Milford Schools. Prior to this appointment he had been a teacher in General Science. Because of this fact he is perhaps better able to understand and cope with the situa- tions involving teachers as well as students. As counselor, and as organizer, Mr. McGinnes lends a willing hand when needed. He is characterized by his good humor and amiable personality. MR. ROBERT E. SHILLING In the position as superintendent of Milford Schools, Mr. Robert E. Shilling has served for twenty-six years, ably faithfully, and efficiently. The wisdom and common sense with which he meets life are keynotes of his character. His keen analyti- cal sense has enabled him to see all angles of a problem. Behind his rather stern countenance, there is a spark of humor which denotes his understand- ing of high-school boys and girls. The duties of these two administrators are numerous and varied. They include such things as the organization of classes, the handling of special problems, discipline, and guidance, and even the distribution of supplies. Their most important task is to employ an adequate teaching staff to maintain smooth functioning of classes. But without the efficient assistance of Eunice S. Knoll, the school secretary, their work could not be so well managed. To her, and to a more recent addition to the office force, Marie W. Webb, is extended our recognition and appreciation of services rendered us. 7
