Capturing all with her charm, Mrs. Keigley remained unperturbed in the midst of the busy routine of writing letters, keeping records, answering requests, signing blue permits, and supervising office girls. Hushed voices, pussy-foot tread, and softly rustling pages characterized the library under the watchful eye of Miss Hazel Ela. Assisting her were Mrs. Mary Benson, who also supervised a study hall, and Miss Ina Dyer, co-sponsor of IRC and study hall teacher. Ina Dyer BA Mary Benson BS, MS Hazel Ela BA Page 14
