i9 -THE MOHIAN-33 MR. K. J. CLARK. M. A. Coming to Murphy High School after a varied and successful training in exacting education positions in Virginia and elsewhere, Principal K. J. Clark brought to the community the ripened fruits of native capacity and technical experience. The sud- den expansion of Murphy High from a small group of students to more than 2,300 has made the position of principal one of foremost importance. Its administration is comparable in its demands and difficulties to that of a college of similar enrollment. Mr. Clark has filled the position adequately, not only as executive officer and school man, but also as a real leader and mentor of minds and character in process of form- ulation. Most important in the building of Mobile is the architecture of the minds and characters of its citizens. In that respect Principal Clark is building basically and significantly for the community. There is no doubt that the influence of this institution will measurably raise the quality of citizenship in Mobile. Mr. Clark is ever ready to find time among his necessary engagements to assist in enterprises designed to benefit the city and county of Mobile. The parents of Mobile may con- gratulate themselves that their maturing youngsters are in such capable charge. PAGE 18
