PRESIDENT PRINCIPAL Just as the office of the Presi¬ dent is the highest executive position in our government, the principal holds this position in our school. Our principal, Mr. William R. Savage, Jr., with a manner liked by all, executes the rules of our school and repri¬ mands the offenders. By all he is regarded with re¬ spectful admiration as the man to whom any problem encoun¬ tered may be taken with the sat¬ isfaction of knowing that he is always ready to aid the students. Every effort has been made by him to make our Alma Mater one of the finest. We take off our hats to one who has been more than a principal; more than a guide in time of need; to one who has been a true and earnest friend to all- MR. WILLIAM R. SAVAGE, JR. CABINET.FACULTY The Cabinet in our government is made up of persons who advise our Presi¬ dent and take a share of his responsibility on their shoulders. Each member is responsible to the President for his section of the work. In the same way vhe faculty of our school advises the principal, and each teacher carries his portion of leading us on along the road to knowledge. They are always ready to give Irene Alderman E. L. Applegate Frances Armistcad Charlotte Avery Mamie Basler

CHIEF JUSTICE.SUPERINTENDENT The highest position in our school is the superintendent ' s, held bv Mr. Stanley T. Godbey. This position closely resembles the office of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Just as the Chief Justice presides over the Supreme Court, so the superin¬ tendent leads the school board. Mr- Godbey not only super¬ vises this school, but also all of the schools in Suffolk. He is highly respected by all, always eager to help and friendly to all the students . SUPREME COURT.SCHOOL BOARD The Board, made up of influential citizens of Suffolk, is intrusted with the management of the educational system of the city. By reports from the superin¬ tendent they are kept in close contact with all the affairs of the schools. Any important change desired by the schools must have the permission of this board. Through the School Board and Mr. Godbey many improvements are gained for the students. MR. STANLEY T. GODBEY Left to Right: R. N. Baker, Edwin Coulbourtie, Harvard R. Birdsong, I)r. F.
