W.F. Almand, principal of Forest High School for the past 14 years,

north Louisiana." Mr. Huey said. His headquarters will be in Shreve-

It was also announced by Mr. Huey that J.W. Alsbrooks, who for the
past nine years has served as principal of the old Fiske-Union school,
and the new Fiske-Union school, has been appointed principal of the 
Forest School, replacing Mr. Almand. Mr. Alsbrooks is a graduate of
Louisiana Tech, Ruston, and has practically completed his work for a 
master's degree at Louisiana State University. Mr. Huey stated that 
he is well trained and has been very successful in developing a fine
school at Fiske-Union.

teacher in the Kilbourne High school for the past 10 years, has been
appointed to take Mr. Alsbrooks' place as principal of the Fiske-
Union school. He is a graduate of Louisiana Tech.

"We believe both of these men will make a success in their new 
positions," Mr. Huey said.
