ADMINISTRATION E. H. SCHROTH, Superintendent Mr. Schroth joined the teaching staff of PCHS in September 1946, in capacity of science teacher, assistant coach, and assistant principal. Two years later, he became Superintendent of Paxton schools following the retirement of John J. Swinney. Recently, Mr. Schroth was chosen Superintendent of the new Consolidated School District, bringing numerous schools in the area under his authority. Aside from his administrative duties, “Buck” maintains an active interest in sports. At the present, he serves as president of the Wauseca League Association. Fans at the Big Ten track events at the U of I hear his voice as announcer and he also serves in the capacity of timer at the football games in Memorial Stadium. He has recently retired from basketball officiating after 20 years of that activity, but will remain active in the line of football. We, the graduating class of 1949, congratulate Mr. Schroth on the very successful completion of his first year as administrative head of PCHS and wish to express our appreciation for his guidance and the interest he has shown in us.
