To most of us, the city Board of Education is a group of men and women who meet every third Thursday of the month. However, the board plays an important role in the student's daily life. The books he reads are bought by the board. The teachers who tutor him are chosen by the board. The school he goes to was built by authorization of a school board. Fred E. Cowl is president, J. P, McHenry, superintendent of schools, acts as secretary. Mrs.. Lottie Albinger, John H4 Clark, William J, Garden and Howard D. Matthews complete the board.

E. King, AB., A.M. Principal P. Rollins, BS., M. Dean of Boys Dale Ross, Ph.B., M.Litt. Dean of Girls Six Capable Hands and three wise heads are the chief commanders of this mass of human- ity that is Triadelphia High school. Mr. King wears a complacent look lwith a flicker of won- der behind itl, Miss Ross dons her favorite smile Cwith a What will they do next? atti- tudei, and Mr. Rollins appears in his schoolday best-that gleam that says, Come on, boys -you can't fool mel Mr. King's grandson brought a smile to all and added to Mr. King that proud grandfather look. We've been waiting for the young gen- tleman to pay us a visit, Being a principal is no small job. Keeping the halls cleared, an- nouncing assemblies, greeting visiting par- ents, planning the war with ex-Triads now in service, and answering millions of questions which just seem to tumble from student mouths. Miss Ross, dashing back and forth from her office to economics classes with a jingle of keys, has her hands full trying to help girls decide whether it's the Nurse corps or the Waves for their future haven. A girls' vo- cation and subjects are Miss Ross's tirst con- cern. Mr. Rollins is a six-day wonder in all that he does.

And he plays on the alumni basketball squad, plus, mind you, being the dean of boys.
