MV. Qdfe SIDEIZCEI' One of the surprising things about our principal was that he kept up with every single organization, activi- ty, and publication in our school. To see him reading the Wildcat, attending all school socials, advising the administration, and attending to every in- dividual problem presented to him was most inspiring. To do these things and also coordinate the running of a fourteen- hundred-member high school was no small task. Mr. Spencer came to New Hanover the same year as did the present Senior Class. He was a freshman with them, and they felt closer to him than did the rest of the school. It is hoped that students for a long time to come will have his expert guidance. Klzese worked foqeflzer

or our we!!-Laing. MR. GEORGE G. BROWN Always eager that things be done properly and on time and doing both these things himself was characteristic of Mr. Brown, the assistant principal. If one asked a favor of him, he was sure of its being considered and, if within reason, accomplished. He talked to students about colleges and scholar- ships and advised the Hanoverian staff on Certain matters. Always the patient adviser and director, he was highly esteemed by all members of our institution. Two of our foremost counselors, whose offices were always crowded and whose judgment was constantly in demand, were our deans. As if that were not enough, they also taught and thus added to their responsibility. MR. FRED CAPPS Dean of Boys Page 19 MRS. MEARES HARRISS Dean of Girls
