Later he received from the University of Pittsburgh his M. Ed. degree. Mr. Puff holds permanent college, supervis- ing principal, and high school principal certifi- cates, and a letter of eligibility from the De- partment of Public Instruction to stand as a candidate for a commissioned administrative and supervisory office. His experience covers four years at Pitcairn, where he was athletic coach, teacher and high school principal, two years at Midland, Beav- er County High School, as guidance director and counselor, instructor in vocational Civics and also night school principal, one year as high s c h o ol principal at Wellsville, Ohiog junior and senior high school principal at Mon- aca High School, Beaver county, for five years, and was holding the position of supervising principal of Dunbar public schools for his sec- ond year when he was elected to the Scottdale position. The new superintendent of schools is mar- ried and is the father of one son, four years old. The senior class wishes Mr. Puff the greatest success in his new position in our school. To The Graduates Of 1942 The only position that will do you any good in the long run is what you make for yourself, and that, as you must realize, will take years of hard work. You cannot be perfect but you can aim at being a likeable, reasonable, and highly respected citizen of your community. It will be your privilege and your duty to take the lead in bringing about a world organ- ization of nations for the establishment and protection of prosperity and peace. Signed, Mr. E. M. Byers.

BGARD OF EDUCATION The seven school directors who make up our Board of Education are: Mr. Russell Eicher, presidentg Mr. Albert Schaifer, vice presidentg Mr. Eldin G. Daugherty, treasurerg Mr. Frank Hardy, Mr. Albert Reynolds, Mr. Wendell J. Momyer, and Mr. Frank E. Dickson. This has been a year of change in the personnel of the superin- tendent's office. First the resignation of Miss Stella Hughus, secretary of the Board of Education, made necessary the election of a new one. Miss Jean Sturgis, a former student of Scottdale High School, was elected to this vacancy. Then Mr. S. B. Bulick, the superintendent of our schools resigned in the fall to accept a similar position in Greens- burg. The schools were without a superintendent until March 20, When, after considering many applications and interviewing many applicants, the Board of Education finally chose Mr. Clinton M. P115 for the position. In addition to the extraordinary problems of selecting a newsec- retary and superintendent this year, the Board has made improve- ments in many of the buildings in the school district, among which was the installation of fluorescent lighting ia Room 16 in the high school. The most outstanding innovation was the installation of lights on the athletic field. This made night games possible and greatly con- tributed to the enjoyment of the games, increased the attendance and the financial success of the season.
