MALONE Assistant Principal Malone Is Now Confirmed Wildcat Fan Equally at home in his office aiding a student to gain a work permit, or in the football stadium cheering the Wildcats to victory, Assistant Principal J. H. Malone has become a friend to faculty and student body alike in his two years at Woodrow Wilson. A biology teacher for eight years at W. H. Adamson High School before coming to Wilson, Mr. Malone has a thorough background of classroom routine. His college education includes a Bachelor of Science degree from North Texas State College and a Master of Education degree from Southern Methodist University. Mr. Malone coached football at Weatherford and McKinney, Texas, and at the Methodist Home in Waco —and now backs Woodrow Wilson’s teams with enthusiasm. 17

PRINCIPAL DALE DOUGLAS After four years at Woodrow Wilson, Mr. Dale Douglas has attained a position of honor and respect in the heart of every Wilsonite. He has expressed a wish that he might know every student personally and, through such an attitude, has won the confidence of every student and teacher at Woodrow Wilson. During these four years, Mr. Douglas has adopted the customs and traditions which have bound Wilsonites together through the years and will hallow Woodrow’s halls for every future alumnus. Having become a true “dyed in the wool” Wildcat has not reduced his efficacy as an administrator. Competent and efficient in organization, he does much to keep Woodrow Wilson up to date and help make the school a unified machine of pupil and teacher striving toward the ideal of a better citizenry. Never too busy to listen to the problems of his students or teachers, Dale Douglas is one of the most important parts in the spirit-machine that is Woodrow Wilson High School. 16

Dean’s Duties Are Many As Dean of Woodrow Wilson, Mrs. Lorene Francis is in charge of attendance, enrollment, and j many of the school records. Every student must be accounted for, and it is Mrs. Francis’s respon- i sibility to see that this is done. Tardy cards, admit cards, and clinic cards,—all must come from the Dean’s office. With open ears, Mrs. Francis listens intently as Willie Wildcat explains how his car had a flat or he went to the wrong class. Mrs. Francis’s duties begin in the summer before the school doors open and continue even after the school year ends. Mrs. Francis has served as Dean for thirteen years, coming to Woodrow Wilson from William B. Travis School in Dallas. MRS. LORENE FRANCIS Dean and Counselor Fill Important Positions Co u nsel or Is Seniors’ Friend Woodrow Wilson’s Senior Counselor, Miss Bonnie Wilkins, is forever busy with an endless sequence of choice cards to be filled out and program cards to be changed. Miss Wilkins is never too busy to help a confused student. Seniors find her wise in the ways of the college and business world. Thankful students vow, “Only Miss Wilkins could have straightened my subjects out.” Always willing to help, this kind lady has inspired many average students to bring their grades up to college requirement level. For those who need financial assistance for their college education, Miss Wilkins provides encouragement and scholarship applications. 18 MISS BONNIE WILKINS
