They were welcomed not only as breaks in the routine, but also as sources of information and entertainment. A wide spectrum of student interest was reflected by an assortment of different assembly subjects.

The many changes in patterns and in needs occurring within the Shawnee Mis- sion schools demand a great amount of administrative flexibility. Thus ad- ministrators must adjust to each school f and give it unique consideration. 11 K X f X .,,. , y ., , ., -': -.,f-. The venerable Mrs. Gwinn presides over her paperwork Administration 5

Dr. Lillian and Mr. Geraci attempted to deal with student affairs, while Mr. Newcomer as Director of Sports and Mr. Trast as head of curriculum coordinated sports events with academics. All tried to counter student dissatisfac- tion. Administration 7
