Page ten t MR. FRANKLYN BLUME . . . Principal Every play must have a director. Our principal, Mr. Franklyn Blume, is both a capable leader and fine personal adviser. Always working in the interests of the students and the school, he has promoted many new advancements in the field of education. With his help a common learnings program for freshmen has been successfully started. A former band director himself, he promoted the idea of forming a school band. Inspired by his enthusiasm, the students have worked to achieve this goal. The fact that the band is now making such rapid progress is due partially to his hard work. Mr. Blume firmly believes that good parent-teacher relationships are highly benehcial to student growth. At P.T.A. meetings he can usually be found engaged in friendly conversation with parents. Despite his busy schedule, Mr. Blume takes time out from his administrative duties to talk with the students. His brief visits to classrooms are familiar to all of us. To the students of Monroe, Mr. Blume is not merely a capable principal, he is a real friend.
