PRINCIPAL WILLIAM P. MILLER Many times during our days at high school we entered the door marked Principal and were greeted with the sunshine of a smile and a cheerful MI-Iello, for Mr. Millers of- fice, as you remember, was always a pleas- ant place to go for advice or for just a few moments of conversation. I-Ie considered our problems with a youthful vigor, sound judg- ment arid thoughtful understanding. No dif- ficulty was too small nor too great. I-Ie was one with us, Often he could be found jok- ing with students in the halls between classes or helping stage crews construct scenery for school performances. He helped load bundles of paper into boxcars during waste paper drives. He shouted encouragef ment from the sidelines to the teams during the games, His pleasant, May I have your attention for the morning announceinents, please? grew to be a familiar part of each school day. Under Principal Miller's direc- tion life at Ogden I-Iigh School progressed smoothly and delightfully. I' fi g iff A 5 BUCK FEVER

SUPERINTENDENT W. KARL HOPKINS During the last school year, surely one of the most difficult and trying of all years, no one has done more to make our school life normal, happy, and profitable than has our superintendent. Mr. Hopkins, despite the manpower shortage, has successfully main- tained high educational standards by se- curing for us the very best instructors. To- gether With members of the Board of Educa- tion, he has made it possible for us to en- joy our usual comforts and pleasures. lt would seem that even greater opportunities have been presented. His untiring efforts helped immeasurably to create our beauti- ful building, and they are still helping to in- fluence our cultural and scholastic standing. We, as students of Ogden High School, are proud to claim and respect him as an ideal, and as a true friend. BOARD OF EDUCATION Iames H Riley, Fred M.

Vice-Principal David O. Peterson lDean of Boysb MISS ZELTA BALLINGER The girls of Ogden High School called for the help and advice of Miss Zelta Ballinger times unnumbered, and she always an- swered quietly, effectively. She studied the causes and influences of our problems. She 'ttook arms against a sea of trouble, and by methods carefully devised brought peace and tranquillity to the day's work. Miss Ballinger's great fund of friendship was never exhausted. As a hostess at Girls' As- sociation functions she was delightfulg as a counselor she was excellentg as a dean of girls she will always be remembered. MR. DAVID O. PETERSON Our vice-principal and dean of boys, Mr. David O. Peterson, has the sturdy qualif ties which his position requires. Of necesf sity his power and methods of persuasion had to be varied, since his duty frequently lay in pointing out the straight and narf row course to those of us who preferred the by-paths. We value advice only when we understand it. Because of this fact, count- less young men upon their return visits to school have made their way direct to the office of Dave Peterson to thank him tor advice and help so thoughtfully given ear- lier in their lives. We shall always remem- ber him as our friend of fair and stormy weather. Dean of Girls Zelta Ballinger
