QUR SUPERINTENDENT Y V - No plant can function smoothly without a general man agar, and it is upon Mr. Charles Secoy that the responsi- bility of the workers and the problems of reproduction rest. His is the duty of selecting capable production chiefs and maintaining them in the positions where they do their best work. Only a man with great executive capabilities could carry on the job as well as Mr. Secoy.

WORKING TOGETHER IN PEACETIME' Our school, Whitehouse has just completed another year --another year of war and peace. It has brought many changes to us. we have had to give up parties and some of our lazy fun: we have laid aside favorite courses for practical--ne- cessary subjects, but there has been no real hardship. Everyone pitched in and did his job. Some are still do- ing faithful work for the U.S.O., Red Cross, and acting as Nurses Aides. We are trying to make children overseas happy and warm by sending clothes and food. we have contributed to the March of Dimes, War Chest, and Community Chest. We have attempted to develop ourselves into mentally and phy- sically staunch citizens. Yes, we have done much, but we still have much to do. The everyday task we perform as we work toward our goal have made of our school an industry that can change from defense tactics to offense tactics without losing sight of our orginal goal. -Our school is vitally alive. It Works, it prepares, it is united. It is in this mode that we present our Whitonian to you. we have tried to show how each person is an integral essential part of this peacetime plant. The Freshmen enter as raw materials, each one hoping to make himself an efficient---helpful citizen. Their molding for life has just begun. Our Sophomores are the blend of the raw materi als. They have been transformed into workable substancesg they have become oriented and are now able to function. They have become the foundation upon which we build. s The Junior year sees the molding of the workable sub- stance. Here begins the realization of the value of each subject as each small bit of knowledge shapes itself into the future plan and scheme ofllife. At last the end is near. The Senior year develops a finished product. But we are not too confidentg we have merely finished a single phase of our life. we have regrets for the time we have wasted and the wrongs we have done. we have memories of friends and the fun we have had but best of all we have ambitions for the future. We know how much more there is to learng we try to prepare for the challenges of tomorrowg and go onward, forward with this peacetime period. we pledge ourselves.

She also works in conjunction with Mr. Jensen to control absentee workers. Mrs. Over is advisor to the Senior Glass. Approhending and reprimanding absentee workers is an important position in any industry, and to this task goes much of the energy and time of our principal Mr. B. T. Jen- sen. His efforts have helped to keep our plant functioning smoothly. Mr. Jensen is also the Junior Class advisor.
