Since becoming superintendent of Petaluma schools several years ago, Mr. David M. Durst has made an enviable record in the educational field. With the cooperation of the Board of Education and of the various faculties, Mr. Durst has kept the Petaluma schools among the top ranking few in scholastic standing and in modern facilities. Mr. Durst's interest in maintaining the high school according to modern educational trends is indicated by the many improvements that have been made during his administration, some of which include: a new cafeteria, a music building, a farm mechanics building, modern bus sheds, and Durst Field, our new football field. The students and parents pay their respects to this fine education. MILDRED HERRICK--English, Typing.

ADMINISTRATION I fr l'li a I Three committees make up a part of that allfimportant organization, Student Government. No small element in its efficiency is the presence of the Finance Committee, which manages the monetary intricacies of the school budget, pays all the debts, and supervises the sale of student body cards. Blocks, stars, letters, awardssthese coveted school emblems are the exclusive property of the Awards Committee, which gives letters or numerals to all worthy students who have earned them in athletic, agrif cultural, or other general student activities. The traditional form of penalty, the demerit, is administered by a very active Merit Committee, which decides who, When, and how many, and can be defeated only if unruly students stop doing what should not be done.
