Tloey 73055 the job JEL Morgan Dr. McKean Mr. Shuman Mr. Morgan, the wiry, little man who goes about school with a thoughtful look, is a highly respected member of the school board. It is he who guides students safely through their high school courses, giving special help and guidance to us seniors who need it most. If some junior or senior is not likely to graduate with his class, Mr. Morgan does all he can to assist him. That assistance is greatly appreciated. All in all, We think he is a very efficient superintendent, and we don't know what M.H.S. would do without him. t He has studied at Central Normal College, State Mr' Freeman Mr' Cummins Teachers' College, University of Michigan, and University of Chicago. He has an A.B. and an A.M. degree. On the Board with Mr. Morgan are four efficient co-workers, who are sincere in their efforts to make M.H.S. one of the best schools in Indiana. This year they voted to put new hot water heaters in the shower rooms so that hot water is now available for showers without a Ere in the furnace. Russel N. Freeman, serving his third year on the board, is president. Dr. Gorman McKean is secretary and is faithfully carrying out his second year. Hugh Shuman, treasurer, has given seven years of service to the Board. William Cummins, township trustee, takes care of the rural students and bus problems. The Board certainly has the good will of the entire school. We Wrote On Our Slates . . .
