Weir! .. MRS. DOROTHY FRASER came to Wilson in April brimming with enthusiasm and vitality. As Girls' Vice' Principal she has counseled and coordinated in a most efficient manner. Her efforts have been vastly appreciated by all. BOYS' VICE-PRINCIPAL George Ingles is a new- comer to Wilson in terms of months, however, he has rapidly become familiar with both plant and per- sonnel and has been heartily welcomed into the fold. un, - - ,.
