Den- nis, treasurer, and Dr. Glynn Rivers, president. Southside High School, a community's dream come true, owes its existence to the Muncie Community Schools Board of Edu- cation. It was in a meeting such as the one pictured above that the first real steps were taken to materialize this idea-that of two city high schools, two separate ad- ministrations, two student bodies. By their foresight, perseverence, and fortitude, we are now able to exclaim that we are a part of this real, living, functioning dream. Working in close connection with the school board is Dr. N. Durward Cory, su- perintendent of lVluncie schools. As official chief administrator of the entire school sys- tem, lVlr. Cory strives to make available the best possible educational system for the children and youth of our city. 'QM Dr. N. Durward Cory, superintendent of schools, spends many hours at this desk in the administration building. 45

3 Smooth Take-off, Smooth Going: .Claude B. Williams, Southside's little motor, lways on the move-checking, inspecting, and ping. IVlr. Claude B. Williams had his work cut out for him, when it was announced in the spring of '62 that he was to be principal of Southside. His role as head administrator included setting up a school budget, hiring teachers, making school policies, planning programs, and doing his utmost in all other matters involved in the smooth operation of this school. Therefore, to us, our pride and our principal are synonymous. Also in the spring, Mr. John Graham was chosen as assistant principal in charge of student personnel. Serving as dean of boys and as acting athletic director, Mr. Graham has proved to be a priceless personality. As guidance coordinator of Muncie city schools, Mrs. Edith Crawley works very close- ly with our counseling department. Arranging special convos, as well as individual confer- ences, is one ofthe many contributions she has made to our new Southside. r. John Graham writes athletic officials' contracts Mrs. Edith Crawley directs our guidance department. a small part of his busy day. 44
