Some have been members of the teaching staff for several years, while others are be- ginning their professional careers here. NEW home economics teacher this year was Adabelle Mangas, a 1941 grad- uate of Ball State Teachers College. During Christmas vacation, Miss Man- gas was married to Mr. George Hill of Northwestern University. In February, Louise Jameson, vocal music supervisor, was married to Mr. William Reid, whom high school students recognize as the county attendance officer.

' Y .. ,-v. ,.. 1- -' . M ':- Q' ' 1 D. S. Weller Harold Brubaker NO DISTANT leader set apart from young people, Mr. D. S. Weller, though Superintendent now for two years, is still the student's friend as he was in his days as Principal, still in- terested, understanding, and sympa- thetic with the adolescent point of view. As an administrator he has kept Port- land schools running smoothly and well, over-seeing and supervising, yet never dictating nor demanding. Under his guidance and enriched with his breadth of mind, the city schools are fulfilling the aim of educational institutions in a free land-that of training youth to be useful and intelligent citizens. IN HIS second year as Principal of Port- land High School, Mr. Harold Bru- baker has achieved a place of real af- fection in the hearts of the students. Serious in demeanor, Mr. Brubaker constantly has his finger on the pulse of the school, recognizing its needs and endeavoring to fulfill them. Students respect him and have confidence in him. They have learned to watch for his sud- den smile. They feel that he appreciates their problems and is trying to help them. Under his control, Portland High School has continued to be a vital and important force in the lives of Portland youth. gfhcienf '35 .xdolminiafrafion ibirecfa 3cAooZ5 li ..13-.
