Maintenance Walter Evans, who keeps very busy as supervisor of all the school buses, and head of the high school custodians, also plans the bus schedules, routes and stops. He reports that our seven school buses together average 6,000 miles each month and use nearly l0,000 gallons of gasoline for a school year. Several of our six custodians work to beautify our school from 3:00 P. M. until 11:00 P. M. Receiving little of their deserved recognition, these employees spend time during the summer months thoroughly cleaning the entire school plant. Walt Evans Head Custodian and Supervisor of Buses Safety What Work in maintaining law and order need be done with Clover Park pupils was done this year by student control. Under Mr. Evans, captains Arlene Turver and Mel Johnson, aided by six lieutenants, led those who patrolled the halls, the grounds, and the parked cars on our campus. Numbering some sixty, the patrolmen Wore badges for identifi- cation and each received a certificate for his service from the state patrol. The traffic squad was reorganized at midfyear for more efficiency and from that time operated under Mr. Owens, Advisor, and Dean Hansen, Captain. CUSTODIAL STAFF: Bill Donnelly, Bill Cocldington, A.

Head, 0 W 0 Commeravial Art Home lwfonolnufs Helping to prepare students for the hustling business world is the major aim of Clover Park's com- mercial departments. Miss Cul- len, department director, instructs classes in such courses as office practice, business correspondence, bookkeeping, and business mathe- matics with the aid of modern dictaphones, comptometers, adding machines, and filing systems. Mr. Herin, the typing teacher, with the help of thirty new type- writers, instructs approximately one hundred beginners, intermedi- ate- and advanced-typists. Miss Brenner, Clover Park's sole instructor in art, guides stu- dents in realizing their latent abili- ties in the graphic arts. Classes, therefore, are not limited to the older students, but extend into the Junior High School level as well. It is hoped that by bringing the younger student in direct associa- tion with some phase of the arts he will possess a little enlightened culture. All in all, three courses are taught: one to the Junior High School-elementary art: one in be- ginning art, and one in advanced art. The Home Economics depart- ment is divided into two distinct sections-foods and clothing. Miss Luft heads the sewing department, which makes the clothes, while Mrs. Bardon supervises the girls in the food lab, All modern equipment is fea- tured throughout both rooms. Sewing and ironing machines, gas and electric stoves, refrigerators, and many other up-to-date con- veniences stand waiting for the use of the girls in the several classes. ag if The social science classes this year have been trying to put Ha little punch into their not always exciting topics. They feel that, in competition with the worldly patter of Walter Winchell and Dick Tracy, their material possibly lacks the dra- matic interest and popular ap- peal which the majority of high school students demand. But in addition to the search for easily and pleasantly consumed reading material, the social science teachers of Clover Park still feel they have an essential task to perform: to create within the minds of the younger generation the evaluation of conflicting ideas, the basis of social thinking.

In addition to running errands, taking people out of class, and delivering hall passes, these girls help materially in the office proper, both in the filing section and by answering the phone. Several girls help in the Guidance Office, as most students who have heard the query, 4'Why isn't iso and so' in school today? , know. They check student's records, and keep the files in order. In taking all this small work off the minds of the secretaries, they free them to do more important work. Though not much of a job with respect to publicity or reward for their actions, the girls have a satisfaction in doing the job well. afeteria s Seene of Eagerlyc waited oon Break ln our cafeteria, a place visited by all students that eat, may be found six full time cooks supervised by Mrs. Davies, who also runs the district's grade school cafeteria, From Hfty to sixty students earn free lunches each day by helping in the lunchroom. Their work in- cludes cashiering. helping at the steam table or snack bar, stacking dishes or wiping tables. Teachers are saved waiting in line by girls from the Home Economics Department, who serve them at their tables. In nearly one thousand daily transactions, over five hundred are complete lunches. Between the two lunch periods, students from the vocational school are served. Our well-managed cafeteria provides a cheerful place to eat a well-balanced lunch during the eagerly awaited break in the daily routine.
