Virgil Stinebaugh, acting superintendent of the Indianapolis public schools since the death of DeWitt S. Morgan in February, and for 13 years a member of the administrative staff of the Indianapolis schools, was promoted to the position of superintendent of schools by the Board of Commissioners Tuesday night.

The new superintendent will assume the position July 1, and under statutory provisions which require the superintendent to be elected for a term of four years, will complete the unexpired four-year term of this predecessor on April 10, 1945. The late Mr. Morgan had served approximately three and one-half years of his second term. Mr. Stinebaugh's salary was fixed for the present term at $9,000 annually.

Mr. Stinebaugh is 46, and lives at 211 Berkeley Road. He will be the fourteenth to serve as a full-time superintendent of the Indianapolis schools since their beginning in 1853. He served as acting superintendent, in 1937, between the incumbency of Mr. Morgan and that of the previous superintendent, the late Paul C. Stetson.

Mr. Stinebaugh joined the staff of the local schools in 1931 after having served four years as director of elementary and high school inspection for the Indiana state department of public instruction.

In his first work with the Indianapolis schools he worked under the late Milo H. Stuart in the organization of the Indianapolis plan of junior high schools and in the revision of the elementary and junior high school curriculum. In 1932 he was appointed director of curriculum revision and in 1934 he was made director of junior high schools and curriculum revision.
