HELP. Most people did not realize how important the assistants were to both students and teachers alike. In the library, the assistants checked out books for students and kept everything straight so students were not billed for fines incorrectly. They also helped Miss Woodring with the huge task of computeriz- ing the library - a formidable job in itself. Gym assistants made life a little easier for the PE teachers by run- ning errands, passes, and other little jobs that Mr. Murphy or one of the other instructors had no time for. In the main office, the hub of business in school, the assistants were a must for the secretaries. They not only did errands for the secretaries but also ran counselor passes or requests. They answered to every job that was set before them, no matter how large or small. It was impossible to write about every task that these particular assis- tants were assigned, but the one thing that should have been under- stood was that being an assistant was not an out for study hall. It was a time to work and gain exper- ience. viii 1. Mrs. Scharfenberg coaches the girls' gym class plays using two basketballs. 2.

Beasts of Burden Throughout the year, many stu- dents helped the faculty during their study hall time. Some such students were AVA, lab assistants, nurse assis- tants, and attendance office helpers. The AVA team was a big help to Mr. Seidl, the audio-visual techni- cian. They helped cart audio-visual materials from room to room and learned how to run the machinery. This allowed these students to gain a little technological knowledge. Science teachers were glad to have the help of students in the labo- ratory. They helped set up laboratory projects for classes and ran errands for the teachers they were assisting. The nurse's assistants aided the nurse in the performance of her du- ties. They ran errands for the nurse when needed, and they helped keep the nurse's office clean. The attendance office helpers spent their time busily delivering passes for the Deans, Mrs. Madix and Mr. Davis. They also delivered the daily bulletins and helped the secretaries in the attendance office with the filing and other secretarial work. These students were there in the faculty's time of need. The help these students offered was greatly appreciated every day. passe' W 3 AssistantsfAVA 97
