RALPH D. HORSMAN lupper Iefti Principal When students of today become citizens of tomorrow, their success will depend upon their background gained from earlier training. Students must be taught to appreciate our democratic way of life by being given training in leadership and cooperation, that they may sufficiently carry out their ideals. We must- we will build on to higher democratic ideals. L. E. PERRY flower right? Principal Major L. E. Perry, now stationed at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, is working to train men who will preserve our democratic government and give peace to a war-weary world, H. V.

Second Row -lion- Executive board is students, voice A busy, exciting, successful year was recorded by the Executive Board as it sponsored dances, basketball games, boxing and wrestling matches, and other school functions. Undertaking an ambitious program of school improvement, the student governing council formed two new committees and inaugurated one squad. The Hospitality Committee has as its duty to make new students feel at home in a strange school, the Devotions Committee takes charge of the Wednesday morning devotions over the public address system, the Lab Squad assists science instructors in preparing material in the science labs. Dean Copetas presided over the board during the fall semester, assisted by Vice President, Bill Rust and Secretary-Treasurer, Grant Evans. Officers for second semester were Lee Ward, president, Grant Evans, vice president, and Al Thomas, secretary-treasurer. Miss Taylor's wise guidance contributed greatly to making the board's undertakings score successes. An interested, wide-awake membership, two stellar executive commit- tees and a helpful adviser gave Mt. Lebanon an Executive Board that carried the school's name proudly and with honor.

v ELLA B. ION lcenterl Vice Principal Miss lon, l want to take mechanical draw- ing, but l signed up for algebra on my form 4l, and what l really need for graduation is health, This is just one example of the many headaches that every day confront Miss lon, our vice principal. Miss lon not only plans all schedules of teachers and pupils, but also super- vises the attendance office and checks the many transcripts which are sent to numerous col- leges and business firms. Helping new students get acclimated to our school and generally counselling all students on matters of curriculum round out Miss lon's busy and essential sched- ule. '2 e .-Ili Class has already begun, the door opens quietly, a thin, lily-white hand slips in the door, pulls out the cards, and closes the door, Have you ever wondered to whom those hands belong? Probably to any one of twenty mem- bers of the Attendance Squad lupper rightl. These girls, under the supervision of Miss Duffy, not only check the forms 48, but also file ex- cuses, help check schedules, and keep track of incoming and outgoing students. Working hand in hand with the office is Miss Fisher llower leftl, home and school visitor, whose job it is to check up on your hooking and console you when you're sick.
