jbisiedate vj fylicflit (Dp,e iatiQ-ni Mr. Cobb. Director of Might Operations, after nineteen years of compe- tent service, has resigned his post as superintendent of Urbana Public Schools. Throughout these years he has consistently won the respect of both crew and passengers with his fairness and good judg- ment. He will be greatly missed next year when another Director assumes the duties which he has so long and faithfully executed. Together with the the members of the Board of Education our Flight Director has developed a well-rounded program of studies and activities for the students of the Ur- bana schools. Since high school is the last of the formal education that the community offers, the Board is especially interested in offering a high school program that will produce responsible and well-rounded citizens: consequently, they work long hours investigating, improving, organizing, and operating our school. This year, an extra task was the problem of reorganizing our school districts. The job called for careful work and study, and Mr. Cobb, as well as the Board of Edu- cation. gave their time and support through radio talks, study, discus- sion. and debate in order to inform the community of the existing problem. Indeed, our school has been much more efficient through the efforts of Mr. Cobb and the Board of Education. Committee Chairmen were as follows: Building and Grounds. Mr. Har- mon: Finance, Mr. Milum: Teachers. Mrs. Ek- blaw: Health and Safety. Mrs. Dawson: Athletics. Mr. Wilson: and Development. Mr. Webber. Mr. T. H. COBB, Superintendent of Schools Left to right—Mr. I;. R. Steggerda. President; Supt. T. H. Cobb: Mrs. Emma Eckblaw: Mr. C. V. Wilson: Mr. Harley H. Harmon: Mr. V. G. Milum; Mrs. Mildred Dawson.

! {. tJi. E. EtewG ideAA. Miss Sarah Fisher, Assistant Principal and Dean of Girls, ably performed her job as stewardess of the U. H. S. during this year's flight. Her main duties included looking after the needs of all passengers aboard, checking passenger lists, keeping the ship's log up to date, managing the Student Office Helpers, taking care of ill passengers, and planning honorary assemblies. In addition to her duties in and around the office. Miss Fisher success- fully sponsored the Social Klub. When Mr. Howd had to be out of town Miss Fisher took over his duties as principal. To girls especially. Stewardess Fisher has proved herself to be a true and loyal friend. When either personal or school problems arose she was always ready with advice and comfort. Every girl in school felt free to talk with her at any time in an effort to gain counsel and guidance. Miss Sarah Fishf.r, Dean of Girls It. Ji. S. Pilot Mr. M. C. Howd has successfully completed his second year as principal on board the U. H. S. Along with his administrative duties he has listened to various kinds of excuses, heard complaints, disciplined students, planned schedules, and in general, kept things running very smoothly. In every personal contact with a student. Pilot Howd has proved himself a true friend. Throughout the school year Mr. Howd has worked hand in hand with the school's Student Council, the student administrative unit of Urbana High. Together they planned and organized the Freshman Orientation Day in which all new students were invited to become better acquainted with the school. For a time he served also as faculty sponsor of this group. In addition to his duties as principal. Pilot Howd has acted as Dean of Boys. This became necessary last fall when Henry Bothwell re- signed to assume the duties of principal in Marquette, Michigan. In this capacity, too. Mr. Howd has successfully piloted the “men of the U. H. S. through another flight. At all times. Pilot Howd has acted as a good-will ambassador of Urbana High. He has spread a feeling of friendship over many parts of the state, even over the nation, through radio talks, speeches, articles, and personal contacts with pilots of other ships. Among other things, he has served this year as Secretary- Treasurer of the Big 1 2 Conference. Upon analyzing the activities and accomplishments of Mr. Howd. we appreciate more fully his capable guidance and piloting of our great ship. Mr. M. Curtis Howd. Principal 4 The 1948 Rosemary
