Our ottice is completely and etticiently statied with tour able business women work- ing at top speed. It would take a minor earthquake to upset the smoothness ot its routine. Mrs, Houck, Mrs. Pritchett, Corrine Barclay and Mrs. Carlson might say that it seemed as though the students were trying to create that minor earthquake. This year, Mrs, Houck had the new responsibility ot presiding over the interfcorn- munication system. Mrs, Pritchett was always kept busy helping Mr, Johnson with his many responsibilities. Although Corrine's responsif bilities were centered around the school funds, she usually yielded a sympathetic ear to woetul students. It you lost one ot your most valuable possessions or you and your locker partner happened to disagree on the small space tor books, you went to the new mem- ber ot the ottice statt, Mrs. Carlson. Mrs. Duncan and Mrs. Lasley had many more responsibilities than most ol the students realized. Mrs. Duncan capably did her daily iob ot receiving money as cashier and book- keeper tor the cafeteria, Mrs. Lasley, who was our librarian, had the responsibility ol all the repairing and ordering ot books tor the school and also teaching library science to twenty girls. We otter our gratitude tor the too-otten unnoticed year's ettorts, to these two triendly women whom we are proud to have associated with our high school. I, I ,..,f 'r .1 . .J- . , V. ,.
