 JJerbert S. JjoneS Superintendent of Schools Tolleston proudly proclaims long-standing ownership of Mr. Jones because his first work in Gary was that of being Tolleston's first principal. He served this pioneer section of Gary with true pioneer spirit by organizing and opening the West Building, our first unit, in 1923. One year later he began his work as supervisor of social studies and continued until last spring when he was ap- pointed to the highest position in our schools. We know that through his leadership, Gary’s Work-Study-Play system will maintain its high rank in the educational world.
