John D. Mees, B.Ed., M.S. Southern Illi- nois State Teachers College, University of Illinois, University of Missouri. Biology. Principal of Class of 1943. The three upper class principals, Mr. J. D. Mees, Senior; Mr. J. B. Stephens, Junior; and Mr. J. F. Zimmerman, Sophomore, use a rotat- ing system whereby one class principal guides a class from the sophomore through the senior year. This enables the principal to know bet- ter the members of his class, so that he can advise them with greater authority. He is re- sponsible for arranging student programs and for keeping records of student credits; he keeps a complete record of citizenship status, grades, and personality ratings for each student. Thornton ' s faculty members who are serving their country as members of the armed forces or in the department of social relations are: Mr. Paul Beck, Mr. F. J. Bright, Mr. Leo Dulgar, Miss Florence Hall, Mr. H. J. Miller, Mr. P. G. Wible, Miss Florence Wunderlich, and Mr. L. J. Yedor. Thornton ' s teachers are aaive in community life; the Red Cross, air raid jobs, and ration boards all use their senices. Many work over- time teaching in the evening school which gives the opportunity for continued education. Joseph B. Stephens, B.S., A.M. University of Chicago, University of Indiana. Mathe- matics.
