g 6 we Repair the f ant Xa js- 4.'f.',, Most students fail to realize the amount of I energy consumed by our custodians in the process of keeping our campus clean and beautiful. Each day after the last bell, and the last resounding footsteps of the students are heard in our halls, the custodian staff must clean the buildings thor- oughly for another busy day. This is an arduous task that confronts them continually and they perform it very well. This efficient staff of nine is ably headed by MISS JUANWA A' BOOTH' School Num Charles I. Drennan and includes Lloyd C. Vath, in charge of maintenance, Alfred A. Hopkins, Mrs. Nora Johnson, Francis C. Holson, Harley J. Fessier and Ray A. Stanton. Dean L. Gay su- pervises the gardening, and Damon A. Baker guards the EBHS grounds at night. Because of the national emergency, the EBHS Nurse's Office takes on an added hum of activity and importance this year. Miss Booth, our school nurse, stated that the now vi- tally imp-ortant course in Red Cross Nursing has enrolled many students and adults alike. This course adheres mostly to home nursing, and is given according to the National Red Cross standards. The course will be an invaluable aid during this emergency, and will help the country more by instilling in the students the knowledge of First Aid. SECOND RUVV Llnyrl C. Vuth.

we Supervise affctiuitiea If a student makes the laws, he understands them better. That is only one good reason why C 3 the Board of Commissioners holds the controlling powers they do. A government by the people is one of the aims of our nation, and so it is in democratic schools. Representatives of the students reflect student opinions and values in every Way. In all student activities, the power delegated by the students comes through the faculty and prin- cipal. And because of a far-seeing faculty and principal, we are able to advance as our school grows. All student body activities are controlled and operated bi' the Board of Commissioners, whether HERBERT BAYLEHS Si'l'l M 'My P t' lim it's money to be appropriated, or permission for dances, and assemblies to be granted. The elected student body officers: President, Herb Bayless: vice-president, Glen Deuel, and secretary, Shirley Kincaid, the class presidents: Boyd Dye, Velma Jean Martin, Don Coleman, Vernon Equhartg two appointees, the chief justice. Frank Stanton, and business manager, Bert Fullerg the Sierran and Kemal editors, Beverly McGregor and Geneva Graves, and four club representatives from the Service Club, Russell liniffeng Debate So- ciety, Lionel Ramosg Boys Letterman Society, Bruce Stotts, and Girls Athletic Associa- tion, Marie Vinson, Comprise the Board members. One of the duties of the Board was to check and approve the constitution of every school club. This action gave the Board an idea of the purposes behind each club. and made thegn more able to grant the requests made by approved clubs. These responsibilities have done much to develop the power of future civic leadership. BO.-XRD OF COMMISSIONERS: Standing Ke ziii eth W, Rich. Principal: Mrs. Mae Foster.
