An overflow crowd listened intently to the comments and recommendations of the panelists and responded enthusiastically when an opportunity was given for questioning. At another discussion in the newlyfinitiated series, a study of extracurricular activities was pref sented by a Task Group of citizens investigating this specific area.

I2 Admini. trition Busy Schedules Face dministrative Staff Mr. Benjamin T. Norris, principal, completed his third year as head of the school's administrative staff. Although his schedule at WashingtonfLee was a busy and demanding one, Mr. Norris's duties called him as far away as Nashville, Tennessee, where he attended a conference of the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Preparing the master schedule and compiling the budget were some of the responsibilities of Mr. Alexander Anderson, who was in charge of planning and coordinating the school activity program. All college applications passed through the hands of Miss Mabel Allen, dean of girls, for final approval. Miss Allen also coordinated the substitute teacher program and planned College Night. Being dean of boys required a great deal of attention from Mr. Harry Pitt, who also supervised the homeroom and health programs and conferred with the grade chairmen about class activities.
