rllhe Qftice Staff ln referring to the office staff of Joplin High School, the descriptive phrase Hahle lieutenants may he most truly applied. Theirs is the immense task of keeping in order the many records pertaining' to attendance, grades, enrollment, schedules, programs, etc., and doing at the same time other routine work which the school requires. Many of the school's disciplinary problems fall to their lot, too. Although some of their contacts with the members of the student body are unpleasant, for the most part there is a mutual good feeling, friendship, and understanding between them and the students. In the photo above we sec Miss XVilliamson, Dean of Girls, Mr. Roy Greer, Dean of Boys, Miss Martin, Sccretaryg and De- Forest Young, one of the many students who come daily to one or the other of these people for help or advice. Miss XVilliamson, because ot' her kindness and helpfulness is well-liked hy all girls. Mr. Greer is one of the most popular men oi' the faculty. llis und:-rstanding of boys and his technique in working with them is admirable. Capable, efficient, and friendly, Miss Martin is liked by hoys and girls equally, and is always ready to give assistance in ironing out the tangled details ol' school life. Q QQ 17
