ADMINISTRATION O New Trier is famous throughout the country as a high school, both for its scho- lastic rating, and because of the type of stu- dent it turns out. These honors are the direct results of much hard work by the adminis- tration and faculty. Mr. Gaffney has been the principal for the last fourteen years, and a large measure of the credit for New Trier's position is due directly to his unstinting effort. KAHLER MALONEY Mr. Gaffney has been aided greatly by Mr. W. L. Brown, Business Manager and As- sistant Superintendentg Mr. H. H. Herron, Registrar and Office Supervisor, Mr. F. A. Kahler, Dean of Boys, Miss Helen H. Malon- ey, Dean of Girls, and Mr. R. F. L. Biese- meier, Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds. The thanks of the whole school should also be extended to the Board of Education. They furnish the contact between the school and the villages, and are often instrumental in introducing improvements in the school. The Board includes Harold H. Anderson, President, Ralph G. Hinners, Christian E. Jarchow, Bert M. Kohler, and George W. Put- Ilan. L, BROWN HERRON BIESEMEIER Class affairs and adviser room work are under the direction of the adviser chairmen, who act as a link between the advisers and the deans. , , ,, HAMILTON SHAW REILY HURST GRIN NELL VERNON MALONEY KAHLER 12 .
