Serving his first year as the executive head of Provo High School. Kenneth E. Weight, leader, teacher, naturalist, and educator has left behind in this first year a consistent record of growth and advancement for Provo High School in the realms of education. He makes a visit to his office, instead of a dread, the desire of every student. He is always willing to hear their problems and to try to help them. His genial attitude and cooperative spirit makes him the number one campus friend of faculty and student. He is the man whose vibrant personality has penetrated itself into every vein of school life and with him the school will always maintain the leadership he has helped them to win. He is ever working, ever striving, to build for us a bigger and better Provo High. KENNETH E. WEIGHT Principal FACULTY Faculty (left to right) : Wing, Simmons. Bench. Slack. Tanner. Reese. Stewart.

We never expected to find such a creature as a psychologist who uses psychology. However, every once in a while a rarity is found in almost any field. We have such an individual as our superintendent. A contagious sense of humor, a patient understanding of child and student problems, and an ability to cooperate and work with any type of group or individual typify Mr. Moffitt. His success in any field of endeavor that he has tried bears this out. The Board of Education as it stands has met and solved many trying problems during the present year. We as students and faculty of the Provo High School appreciate their unselfish efforts to give us the best in educational possibilities. BOARD OF EDUCATION Reading from left to right: Algic E. Ballif, Vice-President Bert Crane. Superintendent J. C. Moffitt. President Vernard Anderson. Clerk J. Fred Fechser. Dr. Milton Marshall, and Dr. Amos N. Merrill. (12)
