Administration In October, 1968, the Edgecombe County School System obtained a new superintendent, Mr. Lee R. Hall. Mr. Hall came to us from his position as the Assistant Superintendent of Bertie County. He attended East Carolina University and the University at Chapel Hill. Every morning from 8:00 to 8:15, Mr. Lilley is the most popular man in school. His office is packed with students trying to get absentee slips. In order to be readmitted to their classes, they must show an absentee slip signed by the princi¬ pal. Students who are sick or have to work, re¬ ceive an excused absence and are allowed to make up the work they missed. Filing important papers is one of the many duties Mrs. Meredith Webb performs as secretary of South Edgecombe. Because of Mrs. Webb, the school financial program runs smoothly. Mr. Brake, the Edgecombe County Attendance counselor, is often seen at Edgecombe. He checks on students who are often out of school and tries to find the reason of their absence.

Dedication What does one look for in a person he re¬ spects? A high moral character, a true concern for others, a sincere desire for their well-being, or perhaps a willingness to help in any way pos¬ sible. We believe that each of these qualities is found in a member of our faculty here at South Edgecombe. This person is a teacher, dedicated to young people, giving much of her time and self to them. She was graduated from Red Oak High School, and Atlantic Christian College, and came to South Edgecombe in 1965. Since that time she has become a leader in the Science Department, sponsor of the Science Club, and has served as freshman and junior homeroom advisor. Therefore, to one who has given and meant so much to each of us, we dedicate the 1969 MACCRIPINE to Mrs. Tempie Fuller. 10

Administration During his busy day, the tele¬ phone saves Mr. Lilley many steps and much time as he carries out the duties of the principal of South Edgecombe. This instrument keeps him in touch and up-to-date with the outside world. The following men compose South Edgecomb ' s District Committee: Glenwood Wooten, A. H. Low- rance, Dr. Edwin Drew, Buster Webb, John Walston, and Vines Cobb, Jr. These men represent the community ' s wishes in matters which involve making a decision about local school policy. Mr. Hall, our new su¬ perintendent, visited our school to acquaint himself with the school personnel and campus. During this visit he and Mr. Buck Massey, the assistant superintendent, take time out to have lunch with Mr. Lilley in our school cafeteria. Mr. Lilley took this opportunity to introduce Mr. Hall to our school.
