l ro liu »rs and Prompters ol' Our t'omedv of Cliaraetors PRINCIPAL A. B. SCHULTZ, chief producer of our comedy of characters, never lets us forget our “stage business’ or our “lines, in the hope that we may look on each day’s production as one of those “dear old golden schooldays' when doing what is right is “doing what comes naturally '. Mr. Schultz is a man of vision, vision being the art of seeing things invisible. In the above pic, he points out to Seniors Bob Hanson anti Mary Johnson what Patrick Henry High School of the future will be like. A three-story addition across the front of the building will add a well-lighted study-hall. a spacious library, and six classrooms. An addition across the rear of the building will be occupied by an automobile repair and machine shop, and another woodshop. Since, according to population experts, the enrollment at Henry will soon number 2,000 students, the addition is a “must” in the Minneapolis school construction program. If no addition is built, students living outside the Henry school district will be transported by bus past Henry High School, all the way down to North High School. Since Henry students arc now one big happy family, we all hope that Mr. Schultz's vision of an enlarged building will soon become visible. Mr. Cilen (». Davis, our popular teacher of biology, has just been appointed assistant principal, a position in which he can practice his scientific theories on us, instead of on guinea pigs.
