Principal Russell R. Myers Dean of Girls Lynetta E. Wilson ln order to provide a good field for football, soil was brought from the hills to fill in the site of our present athletic field. lt was during the depression years when W. P. A. labor was avail- able that the stadium was built little by little, as materials and money could be secured. Al- though some of the brick was salvaged from the Notre Dame building program, the bleachers are first class and at least a part of the dressing room facilities were installed. Meanwhile the student body grew from 415 in 1921 with 60 graduates to 545 in 1922, over 600 in 1923, and the high water mark of 2,067 in 1941 when the junior high schools carried part of the heavy load. ln 1941 there were nearly 1900 students in the high school alone. During Mr. Emmons 25 year reign there have Assistant Principal Frank W. Chapman been over 5,000 graduates. The school system has grown through the building of LaSalle School, the Beiger School, Mary Phillips School, the front section of Battell School, and the in- heriting of Twin Branch School at the time when the city limits were extended. ' The 15 teachers of 1921 have grown to more than fifty. Departmental clubs, oratorical con- tests and dramatics are still with us, supple- mented by others which reflect a much broader curriculum, plus the honor societies which high- light our achievements. Our library has out- grown the room assigned .... For your untiring effort, your broad vision, it is to you, Mr. Emmons, that we, the Senior Class, dedicate our Miskodeed. 1 . . . -- N' .
