9 H Me4MJ0SUGvHl Michael J. Hannon, lale President of the Board of Education, was unanimously elected to membership on the board by the City Council in August, 1936. He succeeded Dr. O. E. Bransky, who had served the school city for a period of nine years. Mr. Hannon was president of the board during the school year of 1938-1939 and was serving his second term as president this year at the time of his death. All of the time that he was a member of the board he advocated a professional educational policy, and he always performed his duties in a professional manner. He was interested in all phases of school work. From the time he was elected to the board, he studied the needs of the schools, especially those that concerned the welfare of the students. Since the beginning of Mr. Hannon's second term, the Board of Education and citizens of Whiting worked out a building plan for the improvement of the City Schools. This improvement was known as the Three Point Building Program. Although this program, designed for the improvement of the Whiting City Schools, has been delayed, Mr. Hannon had a very large part in its development. We, the students of the Whiting Schools, wish to pay tribute to Mr. Hannon and express our appreciation for his interest in our welfare. Superintendent W. W. Borden had this to say of Mr. Hannon: He always took a very MR. MICHAEL J. HANNON active interest in his work as a member of the Board of Education. In all my experience as a superintendent of schools, I have never worked with any man as a member of the Board of Education who devoted his time and energy to his duty more conscientiously and courageously than did Mr. Hannon. He was honest in all his dealings and was a man of excellent judgment in making decisions. He was the kind of man who possessed the qualifications necessary for a member of any Board of Education. li
