Librarians Aid in Study The high school librarian staff was increased from 7 to 18 because of the larger and more spacious library in the new school. Some of the many duties they performed were checking books in and out, taking care of magazines, and keeping the library in order. The librarians pictured above are Grace Fank, Jean Podratz, Becky Beatty, LcAnn Hoff, Gloria Iverson, Roxee Jones, Pat Fuhs, Sue Booth, Margo Headrick, and Jiman Moller. The other members of the librarian staff include Lonnie Mutschelknaus. Carolyn Jepsen, Kathy Grafing, Pat Bendt, Lois Hoff, Vicky Jurgens, and Connie Jewett. Some of the girls worked as librarians at the Middle School during their free periods. 25
