For the past two years, Mr. Willard Brown- ing’s keen understanding of student-teacher relations has enabled him to direct, very efficiently, our program of classroom in- struction. Mr. Browning’s easy and friendly manner has made him a welcome guest whenever observing a classroom activity. A graduate of Pennsylvania State Uni- versity, Mr. Browning served overseas in the Second World War before coming to Red Bank in 1945. He returned to the Army during the Korean conflict. In 1954 Mr. Browning, then a chemistry teacher, was appointed vice-principal at Red Bank. While serving at this post, he received his Master of Education from Rutgers. Mr. Willard Browning Curriculum Vice - Principals Mr. Saffa, Red Bank’s popular, respected Vice-Principal in charge of Student Activi- ties, came to Red Bank in 1949, after having graduated from Columbia University with a B.A. and an M.A. He taught for two years in North Carolina, served four years in the Navy, and worked as a technical representa- tive for Shell Chemical Corporation. At Red Bank, Mr. Saffa is responsible for discipline, assemblies, attendance, social ac- tivities, clubs, hall patrol, and that great event of the senior year—commencement. Reading biographies and historical ac- counts, fishing, and practicing the flute occupy his few leisure moments. Speaking on behalf of the entire school, Mr. Saffa declares: “We expect the best from the seniors in conduct and in study and shall continue to expect the best from the senior class.’’ »2 Mr. (ieorge E.

Mr. Willis M. Sisson Guidance Director Mr. Robert Dudley Mrs. Ruth King Mr. Sisson lectures to college-bound Seniors. To all students of the Guidance Department represents an able, dedicated group of individuals whose counsel, assist- ance, and encouragement has been invalu- able. Their services range from finding jobs for industrious students to scheduling meet- ings with representatives of organizations and colleges. They spur college-bound jun- iors into action with a series of vital as- semblies, and end up with the writing of many transcripts for seniors applying for jobs or college applications.
