In the latter capacity he tries to bring about an understanding of students' problems and arrive at a solution satisfactory to students, teachers, and parents. Mr. Campbell has been at Tilden for over twenty years. For seventeen of those he taught wood shop and model building. He has been an assistant principal since 1947. MR. ALFRED STEUBER -Wiiistanl j rinciptif Making the organizational report of the school, supervising the programming of all students, and handling problems of discipline, are some of the duties of Mr. Steuber. Untangling knotty problems of subject sequences is also one of the Assistant Principal’s jobs. A student with program difficulties can always count on Mr. Steuber to come to his assistance. Before appointment to his present posi- tion, four years ago, Mr. Steuber taught drafting, general science, chemistry, algebra, and physics for seventeen years. MR.

M jA men The Adjustment Office is under the supervision of Mrs. Mary Hilton. She administers tests to all incoming students and records results on permanent record cards in the files in the office. This information, available to division and class teachers and sponsors, is easily accessible to them. Mrs. Hilton also cooperates with welfare and relief organizations in securing medical, dental, and economic aid for needy students. Assisting boys to find part or full time jobs after school, investigating causes for leaving school, and registering eighteen year olds for Selective Service are among Mr. Roland West's varied duties. He is also the custodian of the precious street car passes issued each semester by the C.T.A. The steady stream of boys to and from his office is evidence of the numerous calls made on Mr. West's helpfulness. ant 1C areeri Guidance of boys who desire to extend their education beyond high school is given by Miss Katherine Birmingham. On file in Miss Birmingham's office for information of students, are entrance requirements for numerous colleges and universities. In appraisals and careers classes students survey the occupational fields to learn of vocational opportunities that are available to them, and are able, by tests, to determine the type of work for which they are best suited. S lttendc ance It is the aim of the Attendance Office to encourage regularity and punc- tuality. All problems of non-attendance and tardiness are referred to this office, which is in charge of Miss Aline Cullison. A remodeled office and a cumulative attendance record system were new this year. In the revised system, a single card gives a complete picture of a student's attendance and leasons for absence. In the belief that irregular attendance leads to failures and dropouts, the attendance personnel strive to reduce absences to a minimum.
