Miss Lila Argue, our acting pricipal, was called upon to fill the position vacated by Mr. Stout when he went into the Navy. She stood steadfastly at the helm during a most dilticult period in our history. May we offer her our deepest respect and gratitude for guiding us so smoothly and skil- fully through the storm. This year Rochester Senior High School was proud to welcome the safe return of Dr. M. W, Stout, our principal who served in the Navy during the War, Since his return he has spent his time investigating and molding plans for the future educational system in Rochester.
