Administration Seated: Carl Millard, Janine Hermann, Jessie Hall. Standing: George Helmbrecht, Marie Walter, Laura Cox. (Missing from picture: Katherine Byron). Students, let us conceal ourselves (a few of us, that is) in the Principal’s office and observe what occurs “behind our backs.” The telephone rings and Miss Janine Hermann, secretary to Mr. Macmillan, cheerfully answers it; then she resumes her typing of a transcript of credits for a senior aspiring to ascend to greater heights in education. “Goodness,” we say to ourselves, “we presumed she did nothing but stalk into study hall and classrooms, bearing yellow absence lists or those detested detention notices.” At this point, Mr. Macmillan enters, seats himself at his desk, and asks, “Janine, do you have those forms ready for my signature? By the way. Mr. Sayre would like you to locate this student; he isn’t in class and yet his name is not on the absence list. Before you do that I want you to call Mrs. Byron at the Junior High—she has the Dispensary this period, doesn’t she?—and ask her to come here to help with the innoculations.” This continues all day: telephone calls, detention lists, transcripts, locating students, and calls from anxious parents. As the school day draws to a close, students rush home; but activity is still in evidence here. Janine types a long test for Miss Johnson; Mr. Macmillan arranges the details of an assembly program. As we sneak out of this busy atmosphere, we encounter Mrs. Laura Cox sweeping the upstairs halls and rooms. Going down to the first floor, we greet Mr. George Helmbrecht emerging from the basement where he has been firing the huge furnaces. Broom in hand, he turns to his sweeping, on the first floor. Sometime later there will be light bulbs replaced and several desks “pieced together” again by George. In the main office, we see Miss Jessie Hall taking dictation via the dictaphone. Mr. Carl Millard is seated at his desk, completing one of the numerous school reports which confront him daily as a clerk. Soon, Miss Artello enters and requests another ream of paper. As they leave for the supplies, a student approaches Miss. Hall with a demand for a working permit. The telephone rings and the call is transferred to Mr. Purdy’s office. As we leave (unnoticed, you remember), we almost collide with Miss Marie Walter, who is returning from her daily visits to the various homes. Since most students are familiar with the nature of her work, we shall not enumerate the duties performed by this “beloved” attendance officer. Exhausted from a day’s observation of office routine, maintenance mechanics, and administration duties, we give thanks that we are not members of this industrious group.
