A D IIQAUF II 'UN mit-19 The Hands at the Helm To us, the students, are extended the 'ihands at the helm -- the hands of the men who spend long hours inplotting the course of our scholastic life. First to greet us is lVlr. Fred E. Haines, Superin- tendent of the Penn Township Schools, who works hand in hand with our projects and ideas in order to help us achieve distinction and triumph. Then Mr. Norman F. l-loelzle, our principal, lends a helping hand. No matter what our problems are, whether they be difficulties with schedules, or something entirely different, he cheerfully assists us. A hand across the table is extended to us all by I our assistant principal, Mr. Joseph E.. Wherry. To him we take our absence excuses, our requests for dis- missal, our transportation problems, and always we re- ceive co-operation and a friendly smile. It is these three, then, to whom we turn for the hand- clasp of friendship, encouragement, and guidance. MR. FRED E. I-IAINI-is Supervising Principal MR. NORMAN F. I-IOELZLE MR. JOSEPH E..

Board of Education FIRST ROW - Mr. J. M. Watts, Presidentg Mr. J. E. Hetrick, Secretaryg Mr. A. Clair Mitchell, Treasurerg Mr. R. R. Brenlove, Solicitor. SECOND ROW - Mr. Kaufmann Stoner, Vice President, Mr. P. S. McWilliams, Mr. H. E. Dean, Mr. H. C. Murray Hidden in the background of our school life is a group of distinguished, helpful persons - the Board of Education. Seldom do we really appreciate all that they do for the student body. Occasionally someone asks, Don't they just take the taxes and then spend them? No one except the seven members of this group can realize the time and care involved in handling the taxes and in spending them. To direct the education of a territory as large as Penn Township isn't a facile task. But in the pro- ficient hands of these men, it is done efficiently and quickly. Because of their desire to augment our chances to gain a better education and, at the same time, to brighten the sunshine in our school life, we have a modern building, picture-book surroundings, the most suitable books and equipment, and a friendly talented faculty. Furthermore, this year the board matched our dollars in purchasing a new motion picture camera, an important item in the photography equipment. Comprising the board are: lVl. Watts, Presiclentg K. W. Stoner, Jr., Vice Presi- dentg E. l-letrick, Secretaryg A. Clair lVlitchell, Treasurerg Henry C. lVlurray, and the two new members, Harry E.. Dean, Sr., and Philip S. McWilliams. The solicitor is Attorney R. Rhody Brenlove. lf you ever forget all the advantages the board has provided, remember your par- ents' lament - ul wish l had the chance to go to school again. It was certainly dif- ferent in my dayf' Then be thankful for all the opportunities your School Board has provided. They will continue to serve this district long after we have left the portals of this school.
