Principal Point Loma High School, however, efficient, presents many per- plexing problems to the administration. The person who must meet these obstacles squarely is our principal, L. L. Bloomenshine. Mr. Bloomenshine must keep Point Loma apace with the ever changing community. He has for years been striving to promote a new boys' gym and has finally succeeded. Our principal has also had to deal with difficult matters within the school. Students who may have ap- proached him for words of advice find that he solves with interest and understanding their problems, simple or complex. Teachers like- wise have come to depend on his advice in ever-present school crises. This pride and enthusiasm with which we view his work is equally shared by parents.

The first door led to the Pointer ce an an adiacent cell, in the front of which a strange deity sat, making sour-caustic remarks? Natives call him Emerson, though it was communicated to me in Sanskrit that one Mrs. Christianson had ruled just previously. Passing on to more pleasant sights, I observed Miss Giles. Mrs, McDougall, and Mrs. Zeller teaching history and English respectively. They seemed reasonably normal.
