The custodians often ate together room. Students ' hangouts were more obvious than where the teachers spend their spare time. Where did the teachers and staff disappear to? The custodians had their own room that was fixed up with furni- ture and carpet a couple of years ago. Everybody was involved in decorating it. We painted and the furniture was donated or things were brought from home. Mr. Stan Conerly gave us the sofa and the carpet, explained Harvey Zamora, head custodian. David Silva, a night custodian, said, It ' s really nice. I go in there to pick up things out of my box. The teachers workroom was a tremendous place to sit and talk, and solve the problems of the world, claimed Ms. Mary Huggins. Mrs. Linda Stonebreaker added, Lunch is our therapy group. Also, some teachers just prefered to stay in their rooms for peace and quiet, We had privacy, a radio, and sometimes we talked hoop. It was our own lunch group, shared Mr. Will Jacobsmeyer. After hours of being with stu- dents, teachers needed a break as well. To be with friends, or just to be on their own, it was important because, as Ms. Carole Johnson put it, That ' s where we can be our- selves. We can be crazy ladies when we close the door. by Chnslal Mozer TEACHER HANGOUTS • 141

Teachers with a sense of humor? Of course! Everybody needs a little shaking up once in a while. Every Friday, the secretaries in the office wore their Lion T-shirts to show their school spirit. We de- signed them ourselves and worked at the basketball games to pay for them. They ' re great! claimed Mrs. Jeanane Brown. Also, while some students dressed for Halloween, the secretaries in the main, guidance and attendance office dressed in various outfits. In the attendance office, it ' s tra- dition, so Ms. Kruger made me! explained Ms. Jacquie Haima. Mr. Dick Diamond waited a long time to play a good trick. Because he was an alumnus of Cal State Berkely, and they were rivals with Stanford, he played the trick on Mr. Peter Mirashige, a graduate of Stan- ford. They had no official mascot, so Mr. Diamond made him one with an ax through the head. He took his 3rd per. class to Mr. Mirashige ' s class and chanted the rival cheer. Give him the ax., the ax . . . the ax with thirty students clapping and full drum beats. Mr. Mirashige was surprised, however, It was so funny. I didn ' t even bother to get revenge . . . yet. See, there was more to teachers than just lectures and homework. They too, had a good time with friends at school. HUMOROUS TEACHERS • 143
