MR. THOMAS MIDDLETON Metropolitan School Physician MRS. BETH H. RT. I AN Metropolitan School Nurse Student Services Skillfully Done The health office was the sanctuary for the aches and pains of the students of Bloomington Junior and Senior High School. Students sent to the health office were greeted by the nurse. Mrs. Beth Hartman. The health office arrangement was changed from the past. Dr. Middleton was the doctor on call as op- posed to previous years when we had our own school doctor. Mrs. Hartman gave out aspirin and checked temperatures of ailing students. The bookstore was one of the busiest parts of the whole school. Mrs. Betty Robertson and Mr. Allen Conley, bookstore clerks, supplied us with books, pencils, paper, and all our necessary materials. The bookstore sold approximately 7.200 pencils and con- tained within its walls about 50.000 books. Another function of the bookstore was the lost and found de- partment. Lost articles from students included books, jewelry, eyeglasses, and many other things.

Girls ' chorus, choir, and the Madrigal Singers spent many long hours limbering up their vocal chords for various programs throughout the year. Mrs. Bythema Bagley directed a musical called That Certain Age, which was presented in May. Mr. Neal conducts his orchestra class. 27
