Page 2- 3 A FACULTY g ARTHUR M. WISNESS Superintendent of Schools Progressive, hard working, Mr. Wisness is at present directing the building program undertaken by the Board of Education in September, 1938. In spite of the heavy demands made upon his time, Mr. Wisness is always approachable, always definitely human. Versatile, this year he responded to an eleventh hour request that he serve as pianist at the annual iiPop concert. Critics commended his performance. REUBEN LUNDQUIST Principal , The pivot of the high school: every studentis prob- lems are Mr. Lundquistis problems. For the pure in heart a visit to Mr. Lundquistis ofi'ice means a pleasant encounter; for trouble makers it means a stern ordeal. An alumnus of the Willmar High School himself, he is active in organizations outside of school. At present he is secretary of the Princi- palsi Association of the C.M.E.A.
