GEORGE D. STECKEL Principal DORIS ELLIS Secretary to the Principal Character is the cornerstone ot all success. This well- known quotation can appropriately be applied to George D. Steclcel as a student, teacher, and principal of the White- hall Junior-Senior High School. He was graduated from Whitehall with the class of l926 and returned in l93O as a teacher. He served in that capacity until i944 when he joined the U.S.N.R. After Mr. Steckel's discharge from the service he secured a position at Gettys- burg College and remained there until his return to Whitehall in 1950 as principal. A fair and sympathetic understanding of student problems, a deep understanding ot, human nature, and administrative ability are some of the qualities which make Whitehall stu- dents respect their principal. 11

Whitehall is indeed proud to have at its head Clarence M. Gockley, who first as a teacher and coach and now su- perintendent, has never lost the common touch. Busy though he be, Mr. Gockley never fails to impress the students with his geniality. Now in his thirty-third year at Whitehall, he is a favorite with students and faculty alike. Through his continued perseverance our school system has been keeping pace with the educational demands that are constantly being made. We hope that each new year will bring greater success to Mr. Gockley in his supervision of the Whitehall schools. 10 CLARENCE M. GOCKLEY Superintendent NORMA ARNER Secretary to the Superintendent
