Superintendent, teacher and friend, Mr. Cald- well Delaney has guided with wisdom and skill the early years of julius T. Wright's. As administrator he directs the finances of our school from the play-money store of the Kindergar- ten to the real-money budget of all our resources, and coordinates our academic programs from ap- plauding the efforts to read in the first grade to awarding diplomas at graduation. In addition, he supervises such matters as maintenance, enlargement and public relations. A well known historian, Mr. Delaney sometimes teaches government and history courses, his favorite being the story of Mobile. His classes include much experience with historical shrines and landmarks. It is of pride to us that he is in wide demand as a speaker and research consultant. We students know him best as friend and coun- selor, who permits us to assist him in arranging our confused likes and dislikes into a workable schedule of study: But Mr. Delaney, if we have phys. ed. first period, our hair stays stringy all day. Oh, yes, I'd like a study hall last period, I can get a tan on the steps. I just can't pass Latin, I'm dead in that course! In assisting him as counselor, We bring to him such weighty considerations as: But Mr. Delaney, I couldnt wear my uniform shoes, they're too little! But I don't deserve these demerits, I wasn't talking, just listening! I couldn't bring my gym suit, the washing machine broke down. In coping with us, from administrative duties to our minute and manifold needs, Mr. Delaney im- presses us with his ingenuity and finesse.
