The workmenls strike last summer put an end to all hope of completing the new wing for the incoming freshman class. The Administration would like to thank the students and faculty for their co-operation during this trying period. Once opened for classes, the school faced numerous additional handicaps. For the first few weeks after the opening of the top floor, teachers had to get along without any blackhoards, heaters, lights, doors, blinds, or inside windows. Furthermore, they still had to put up with construction noises all around them. When the workmen were finally gone, the new wing housed twenty new classrooms, two activity rooms, three teachers' planning rooms and a new power mechanics' room. In addition, the cafeteria and kitchens were enlarged, and a new all- purpose gym and boys, locker room were built. It was all worth waiting for and many visiting groups have commented on how lucky we are to have such a beautiful school. House The Backbone Of The Entire District AREA SCHOOL BOARD-Bottom.

The office was besieged with problems right from the start of school. With none of the new wing completed, room changes were necessary and study halls were assigned in the unfinished cafe- teria, band and chorus rooms, and the auditorium. Teachers awaiting new rooms set up their desks in the boys' and girls' dressing rooms. The P.A. system was a constant source of anxiety. Despite these problems the office personnel remained cool and everything was always under their efficient control. Mr. Poulson joined Dr. Tranquill as a second assistant principal. He has worked very closely with the Student Council, and the two of them together with Mrs. Heidish helped to bring into operation the long antici- pated Student Lounge. Miss Brombach, despite the many problems, managed to remain cheerful and helpful. Mrs. Ritter started this year as the attendance secretary. Office Personnel Strive To Assure Dr. Roush would have likecl to have clone work with computers.
