BOARD OF EDUCATION The Board of Education has been the seeming omnipotent force responsible for the smooth operation of our school system. This council, composed of five of our most civic-minded citizens: Patrick J. Walshe, presi- dent; William T. Hicks, vice-president; Frank E. Barnes, William D. Lotz and George F. Stra- dar—gives freely of its time and energy to as- sure the young people of this community the best educational opportunities possible. These men are concerned chiefly with the over-all problems of organization and financing of our educational program. They are always alert to our needs and are responsible for giving us a competent and modern educational system. Our principal, Ralph L. Sloat, is a man we have come to look upon as a friend and guide due to his interest and help in our activities. At the end of our four years at M.H.S., Mr. Sloat is acquainted with not only the scholastic record of almost every pupil, but with the student per- sonally. Never will we forget Mr. Sloat’s peppy “Step lively, please before classes, nor his ever- menacing shillelagh. We will always consider Mr. Sloat an important part of Mineola High School, both as a principal and as a friend. Kenneth S. Terry, besides fulfilling his respon- sibilities as assistant principal, directs the various student service activities. As advisor of the Pro- jection Squad, he selects and instructs its poten- tial members. He also chooses the Candy Girls, seeing that there is always a sufficient number to sell the much desired confectionery. Checking up on questionable absenteeism is an unpleasant duty which falls to Mr. Terry; in fact, it was through this that many of us became acquainted with him. Nevertheless, pleasant memories of this genial man will linger with us always.
