Mrs. Lena O'Neil, Dean of Girls, and Mr. joseph B. Newman, Dean of Boys, spend a good deal of their valuable administrative time in this work, but they both manage to fiind time to support the active school spirit that is Mission. Programming something like 2,100 Mission students, and giving them counseling and ad- vice to -prepare them for future jobs is the work done by head counselors Mrs. Thelma Baxter and Miss Ade- line Scandrett. l

principal Mr. Alvin L. Morse, known to Mission for many years, came back to Mission High last fall-this time as principal. The man who, as act- ing vice-principal for one year, guided and helped many Mission students was called to fill the vacancy left by Mr. Louis G. Conlan who was promoted to the position of Coordi- nator of Secondary Education for the San Francisco Unified School Dis- trict. An ardent proponent of social and extra curricular activities, Mr. Morse has encouraged activities for all students. Mr. Morse is always interested in students and their affairs. The doors to my office are never closed. I shall always be glad to hear from any student, he once said. Perhaps this is why students frequently call upon him, whether it be in conjunc- tion with student body business or personal problems. Perhaps this is why students respect and know him as the true friend that he is. 1

faculty Mrs. Lubeck, Mrs. Swanson, Mrs Elder and Mr Castellrno of the English department meet to discuss a new test program Mission students are proud of their eighty-nine member faculty-and they have every reason to be proud of it. For Mis- sion's competent faculty members give valuable training in all basic subjects to all students, as well as offering them proper training in the large number of important vocational courses. The services and duties of these teachers do not end with the close of the school day, however, for much of their work extends into the after and before school hours in the supervision of extra-curricular activities.
