XCl'I We Have the Administration MR. ALVIN MORSE We're proud of what we have in our administrative force. Being the leader of a school requires a great deal of patience, understanding and hard work. Mr. Alvin Morse, our principal, lives up to these qualifications in a capahle manner. Always concerned with the affairs of Mission, he gladly welcomes sug- gestions for improvement, He has a friendly smile and a willingness to cooperate with any suggestions from the faculty or students. This, and the fact that he is a real friend have made Mr. Morse the friend and leader of Mission High. FN MRS. LENA O'NEILL It takes more than an intelligent woman to he a good dean of girls. It takes a lady with high ideals and understanding for each girl she ad- vises. just such a person is our own Mrs. Lena M. O'Neil. She has a difficult joh, but she remains pleasing and cheerful no matter what her duty happens to he. Her wise and fair judgment is respected hy all Mis- sion girls who depend on her friend- ship and guidance. They know that their special problems will be con- sidered personally. That Has What It Takes

For these reasons Mr. Newman has been looked up to for understanding and guidance by the many students who needed his warm advice in solving their problems of high school en- vironment.

Mrs Thelma Baxter, a very compe- tent person, heads this department. Low sophomores and high seniors, too, have many problems concerning their programs.
