Our administration has guided us through a maze of educational processes for four long years. They have encouraged us in our school developments and with sincere interest have successfully transformed us from embyro teachers to the real thing. Theirs has been a difficult task during these past years of v» arfare. It has not always been easy to understand the outside pressures on a student body whose collective mind was in India, in Germany, or in the Philippines. But with their truly capable administrative tal- ents, their optimism and faith in a brighter future, they have counteracted the depressions of the war years. Eventually we emerged; a more united and spirited group than ever before. One of our greatest assets as we leave Montclair is the MSTC spirit we have ac- quired through the years. Much of this feel- ing has grown from our association with our school ' s administrative leaders, for whom guidance has been not only a job, but a sin- cere, personal concern and interest.
