Providing those little extrci services thot Above: Miss Grace Daley. Below: Speech Therapist, Mrs. Joan McKinnon. Familiar faces that provide the many extra services that make our school run efficiently are those of our service groups. Always ready to lend a help- ing hand to both students and faculty these people are an essential part of our school. Taking care of all clerical work in addition to keeping track of school funds, bills, receipts, and answering numerous phone calls was the duty of Miss Daley, who later took over the office work of Mr. Rice and was re- placed in the high school by Mrs. Mitchell. Lending assistance to office practice girls, writing many tardy ex- cuses and sending home sick students also occupied Miss Daley's time. In order to protect the health of the students, our school nurse, Mrs. Ver- nick, visits the high school once a week, examining students for eye and teeth defects as well as other physical ailments. In addition to health defects we now have a speech therapist, Mrs. MacKinnon, who now has fifty stu- dents enrolled to correct speech de- fects. Very familiar faces are those of our cooks, who most students see every day, either 5th or 6th periods. The cooks prepare and serve lunch to the maiority of high school students and 1

For boys that do not find an interest in engineering or one of the sciences, a general course is given. This course is designed to prepare them for a trade. They are given an opportunity to develop skills in welding, mech- anical drawing, wood working, and to become apt in the use of the equipment that can be found in the shop. These courses are taught by Mr. Graham and Mr. Kuzman. Girls, too, may find the general course best suited to them. They may enroll in Home Ec., taught by Miss Wool- way, where they experiment in refinishing furniture, plan and prepare meals on a budget, and design and make their own clothes. Brooklyn, it might be said, works on the policy that, All work and no play makes John a dull boy , so a va- riety of non-academic courses are open to all students. The artistic minded find Mr. Karakul's room just the place to spend their elective periods. The students are kept busy displaying their talents in making posters for the carnival, props for half-time shows at football games and designing and printing programs for such big oc- casions as the dedication of the auditorium. Offering an opportunity for students to have fun and learn about everyday plants and animals, is biology. Keep- ing the greenhouse is the responsibility of the members of this class and under the guidance of Mr. Marquardt find us busy students like Jerry Vince, Russ Tegtmeier, and Henry Rup- pel, find watering, cultivating plants and carrying on pet projects a rewarding hobby. They can be iustly proud of their orchids! The feel of a beat or the sound of good harmony attracts many students to the music room. No profes- sional training is needed to loin the chorus so it is open to any student in the upper four grades. Under the di- rection of Miss Ruppelt, vocal music is prepared and pre- sented at many school affairs. For those who play an in- strument, the band, under the baton of Mr. Phillips, offers an opportunity to perform on the football field as well as on the concert stage. Although only a half credit course, driver training is well liked by all students who want to learn to drive and make good citizens of the highway. We at Brooklyn spend 7 hours and T5 minutes in school each day. In that time we are working, playing and growing so that when it is our time to be citizens and leaders of our community, state, and country, we may be fully prepared for our task.
