1948-49 school year he taught In
the: Independence elementary
schools. He plans to complete his
doctorate this summer.

schools for 10 years. His tenure
there was interrupted during , the
last war when he served as a field
director for f the Red Cross from
1943 to 1945. He then acted as
assistant director of the junior
Red Cross in San Francisco for
one year. 1 . j
Prior to entering the teaching
profession in Portland, Albin at
tended Salem public schools and
received his bachelor's degree at
Willamette university. He earned
his master's degree at the Uni
versity of Washington.
Ensz is not new in the Alham
bra school system. He was an
assistant principal there before
coming herd two years ago. In
his new position he will deal with
approximately 12,000 students.
In other action at the school
board meeting, Mrs. Albin's ap
pointment as secretary at Central
high school was confirmed. She
began her duties this week.

per cent cost of Ifvlntf increase for
secretaries. Janitors, and cooks in
the district; and decided 'to add
two teachers in the Independence
elementary ; schools next year,
which .will bring the total to 17.
