The main office force was organized in i925 by Miss Gertrude Smith, former registrar. It consisted of one girl who relieved Miss Smith during lunch periods. Since that time the force has grown to a full time staff consisting of eight members, now led by Miss Dvorak and Miss Erickson. The staff is like a well-organized family, each with his special duties. Among the tasks are writing excuses for tardiness, checking of skipper slips, compiling the absentee lists, and imposing 3 o'clock detentions. A picnic and party are a part of the traditional social activities, as is the Grab Bag Sale, which is now in its twenty-third year. Miss Haigh is in charge of ten girls who work for her and Mr. McMann five periods every day in office practice. Their many duties consist of marking and scoring tests, writing letters for various school catalogs, making and keeping up-to-date folders with information about every pupil, copying the program cards for incoming sophs, and helping tally classes Their job is not all work, however. At the end of the year there is a joint party with the main office girls. Row one: E. Pomorski, D. Pretski, Miss Haigh, adviser, J. Plumb, M. Fehring, J. Chilman, Row Two: E. Raether, B. Michaels, G.
