ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANTS Many inconspicuious jobs at Gard- ner-Webb are vital to the proper running of the school. Most stu- dents take for granted the duties of Mr. Leonard Allen, the bookstore manager. It ' s unlikely that much studying would take place if Mr. Allen didn ' t sell text books and other school supplies. In addition Mr. Horace Scruggs maintains the grounds of the campus and makes sure the keep off grass signs are up. The two doctors at Gardner- Webb, Gene Washburn and Wyan Washburn truly benefit the students through their medical services. Also Mrs. Shirley Washburn takes care of all phone calls to the cam- pus and Mr. Wayne Epiey aided in the enforcement of traffic viola- tions.
