THE CHIEF ADMINISTRATORS Mr. T. H. Cobb Superintendent of Schools The authority in public education in the 1943-44 school year was the Board of Education. The Board has always devoted itself to the very best interests of the community youth, with a total singleness of pur- pose. Especially alert to the interests and promotion of Urbana High School, the board's ambition was to give all high school students a well-rounded, well- developed program of activities and studies. The pro- gram of Urbana High School was designed to turn out graduates who would be prepared to become respon- sible citizens devoted to the best interest of the entire community. The high school was also dedicated to the idea that it. and its students individually, should bear their share of responsibility for the defense of their country and the maintenance of their way of living. The Board of Education was especially anxious to ex- press its gratitude to those of its former students and graduates who joined the armed forces. It looked with boundless pride on this large and courageous group. Mr. T. H. Cobb, superintendent of the Urbana schools, admired and respected by his associates, has had long experience in the needs of the Urbana schools. Planning for a better future and sympathetic to the wants of the schools, he has grown to be a true friend of students and teachers, alike. BOARD OF EDUCATION Mrs. G. E. Ekblaw. Carl Parks. Vcrn G.

HIGH SCHOOL OF URBANA As principal. Mr. Hadden plans the students' sched- ules to suit their individual needs, plans the school cal- endar. secures and sells tickets to the many athletic events, writes letters of recommendation, and keeps the school running smoothly. His efforts to make each student's stay at Urbana High as pleasant as possible are never forgotten by students and graduates. Miss Sarah Fisher Mr. S. B. Hadden Principal Watching Miss Fisher perform her many duties, you wonder how anyone could do so many tasks and yet do all of them so well. Last fall, she had a new responsibility as assistant principal besides her old duties as dean of girls and teacher of shorthand and secretarial training classes. We will always remember her willing- ness to help each one of us with our individual prob- lems. Asst. Principal—Dean of Girls STUDENT OFFICE HELPERS Sieferman. Fchner. Bosley. Erickson. Mrs. Dietz.
