Rhoda Freehling, clerk in principal's office, spends much of her day in typing. She uses only one typewriter, however, others are used by Miss Marion McElroy, steno- grapher to the principal, and by student typists. That big odd looking thing is not a television set but a micro-film machire where filmed records are shown. All per- manent record cards tl9l5-l94Ol have been filmed to conserve storage space.
