Miss Straub, Mr. Sifert, Miss Carroll, Mr. Taggart UPERINTENDENT EARL R. STFERT is the adminis- trative head of Proviso high school.

The rapid increase in industrial demands occasioned by defense enterprises has shown the wisdom of his emphasis upon the desirability of training boys and girls to play a part in community life and in business.
