Rfiibert Ijbiwda Headmaster , .Mr. Head of Upper School Hughes Head of Middle School Pride Head of Lower School L lil Administration clministration The miracle mile In keeping with the business of looking good, many of P.A's brazen students have searched to keep their bodies in good shape. Enter the wonderful world of exercise which most high school youths acquire by the dreaded P.E. class. But what about the graying, balding, potbellying fneed I say morej administrators? Your basic high school principal is a fifty-five to sixty year old man tsay, the John Housman lookj with the temperament of Freddie Kruger. This dreaded figure rules his 900 member tribe with an iron fist. All of this may be true in the Hall's of other Central'ly located schools in which Catholic students can Park their cars in order to get a better View of the pious St. Mary's. But, not at P.A. The administra- tion has taken on an incredibly humane and fit order of life. It really is a fit view. Physically fit would be a better term. Mr. Arch Mclntosh, head of the upper school and daytime brother for two- hundred upper-school students, is not a stereo type mold of an administrator. Mclntosh, who is actually involved in F.C.A. and other community and school related activities, is an upstanding member of Jim Bottin's Health and Fitness club. Big Mac regularly attends aerobic sessions at Jimbo's home for the physically deranged. Let's not call them sessions but 55 minute burst of conclusive evidence that the human is not the most intelligent but definitely the most suicidal form of life. During these sessions , Mr. McIntosh jumps, rocks, bucks, and brays like some mad beast out of a Marlin Perkins segment. After this, he is quick to the Nautilus weight room where he tones and builds to his hulking mass of humanity. As he heads to the showers, he bumps into none other than Dr. Robert Dowda, headmaster of the Academy itself. Dr. Dowda is heading towards his annual bout with the raquetball court. Dr. Dowda cuts, dives, swings, and does leaps that would send Mikhail Baryshnikov back to doing a juggling act in Gorky Park. Dr. Dowda also enjoys the famed aerobic sessions , an act that was spurred by Mr. McIntosh's interest. As if this were not enough, Mr. McIntosh eases into his Celebrity and catches sight of a shining head bobbing about along the roadside. Pulling down the visor to cut down on the glare, Mr. McIntosh is humored to see that it is Mr. Tom Hughes, head of the middle school. Mr. Hughes has a passion for running. When he's not running the events of the middle school, one can find him by catching the reflection off a passing airliner. Yet, as if running was not enough, Mr. Hughes further pumps his quad fetores by riding his bicycle. Mr. Hughes regularly devotes leisure time to his body using the philosophy that if it's the only one you've got, you might as well take care of it. So the upper and middle school heads take care of themselves. What about the mysterious elementary school? No difference. Sweeping you off your feet will be the charming Mrs. Cheryl Pride. Mrs. Pride is a mystery to the upper school students. She must cope with the boo-boo's, ouches, and stuck zippers that her job entails. But out of the office, she enjoys a routine splash in the local pool. This is very stimulating exercise that keeps her in good shape and her male counterparts on their toes. The administration at the Academy has set a good example of physical fitness. This example has been followed by many students who have caught the bug. And isn't that the way it should be? Students and administrators having the chance to work and play together. Huff Puff. Dr. Robert Dowda, Principal, does aerobics with several of his students.
