s u P E P P 'f I N N c T I E P N A D L e N T ADMINISTRATION IS SEVEN-DAY-A-WEEK JOB Administering the schools at Woodland comes near to being a 1'Ol111d-tl'1C- clock, seven days a week job. With a building program nearing completion, community responsibilities the people look to school folk to Carry out, both Mr. Hanft, high school principal, and Mr. Homburg, superintendent, live busy lives. Mr. Homburg, above left, is pictured talking to a school patron one Saturday this spring. Standing in the doorway of the new high school, with a folder of specifications barely visible in his left -hand, he was hailed by some visitors as he strode PUI'pOS6flllly from his office in the grade school building. His work clothesv are standard garb for after-school wear. In his own classroom- teaching days an enthusiastic shop teacher, he designed and laid out the sheet lead from which the laboratory sinks were made. His work there and in other departments, plus Mr. Sienkois 'Caided by Bob Hoefsj, resulted in beautifully but sturdily constructed tables and cabinet work for the science room, home economics room and the art room. Mr. Hanft, pictured above right unlocking the building bright and early, is probably the most busy utypicali' high school principal for miles around. Besides conducting the affairs of a busy high school program smoothly and equitably, he belongs to the VVoodland Fire Department. This may not sound like much to the uninitiated, but to those in the know the life of a volunteer fireman . . . yes, the department is strictly volunteer . . . is a busy one. Weekly meetings throughout the year at which fire fighting is practiced brought the Woodland organization statewide recognition. Service club work is a taken-for- granted part of the teaching profession. Mr. Hanft is a past president of the Woodland Lions. Keeping the boss on the beamv is one way an efficient secretary might describe her duties. Both administrators are fortunate in having just that type of secretary. Mrs. Blauman, pictured immediately below Mr. Hanft, works half a day as his secretary. Mrs. Martin, shown instructing a student assistant, serves both Mr. Homburg and the school board as secretary and general factotum. I 7

MEMBERS DILIGENT IN PURSUIT OF DUTIES ln the friendly, placid, yet sincere and earnest expressions on the faces of hoard memhers, clerk and superintendent pictured above, lies a Clue to the harmony, happiness and teamwork which seven citizens engender as they go about their duties.
