Raymond E. Hearn was elected mayor of our fair city early in 1944. He arrived at his desk in the city hall through the usual channel—he was first mayor of Gaston and later of Roosevelt. Mr. Hearn is a Pennsylvanian by birth and received most of his undergraduate training in that state. He enjoys base- ball, basketball, pie a la mode, and singing. In fact, our mayor once gave a concert in Town Hall. Mr. Hearn has proved himself a true friend of both the students and the faculty. We sincerely hope that his term as mayor will be a long and successful one. THE RAYMOND E. HEARN Principal Page 14
