so . h-: Mr. Gerheim has initiated an extensive building program that will adequately serve the needs of our rapidly expanding com- munity. He has constantly endeavored to bring to North Huntingdon Township teach- ers who will develop the potentialities of each student to the highest possible degree. Today with the eyes of the entire nation focused on education, the problems of ad- ministration loom larger and are more in- tricate. More and more the Superintendent is called upon to provide the educational leadership for communities throughout our nation. For that reason we are indeed for- tunate to have such an outstanding execu- tive as Mr. Gerheim to serve as the head of our school system. 9

HAROLD E. HENCH MR. HENCH It is with deep regret that the students and faculty of North Huntingdon High School bid goodbye to Mr. Harold Hench at the end of the present school year. Since coming to North Huntingdon from Ship- pensburg in 1954, Mr. Hench has compiled an envi- able record and has materially enhanced and en- riched every department and activity in our school. Possessing a pleasing personality, an abundance of vigor and vitality, a deep understanding of young people and a thorough knowledge of administra- tive procedure, Mr. Hench is a person who well deserves the title of Educator. His out-of-school interests include collecting antiques and refinishing furniture. These hobby interests fre- quently give way to the demands of his twin sons who prefer out-of-door activities to the indoor variety. We at North Huntingdon School wish him success and happiness in his new position as Principal of Shaler High School. Helped develop a top-ranking school ' ' :
