duties were eased b new service personnel With the increasing amount of mainte- nance work to be done in BHS came two new additions to the service personnel. Mr. Dean Bryan was added to the staff as the electrical technician. Mr. Bryan was in charge of the upkeep of all electrical equipment in the school. The other addi- tion was Mrs. Virginia Vincent as a teachers' aide. Mrs. Vincent performed such duties as typing for teachers and operating equipment in the teachers' workroom. With the placement of washers and dryers in both the cleat building and in the high school itself, the custodians re- ceived a new job of cleaning the prac- tice and game clothing for athletic events. With one year's experience behind them, both the cooks' and the bus drivers' routines ran quite smoothly. The cooks daily prepared 1600 meals, while the 19 bus drivers transported 7071 of the students to and from BHS.
