With each passing year the schedule overload became more acute. Bedeviled by computer bugs the counseling staff was besieged by hordes of students. Through calm perserverance the situation was well in hand within a week. The counseling staff was headed by Glen De Shazo. Two recent additions were Mrs. Holt, sophomore and junior girls counselor and Mrs. Shultz, who worked with junior boys. Mrs. Jones took on the responsibilites of senior girls and college counseling, while Mr. Schweinfurt guided the sophomore boys. Battling crowds as well as weather conditions, sports photographer Gale Jones captured fleeting memories of the moment's activities. When he wasn't focusing on a subject he was busy ordering film and accounting for audio visual equipment as director of the Visual Aids Department. Mrs. Olson, school librarian, was custodian of approximately 17.000 books and acting supervisor over 25 library assistants. Her efforts made the GPHS library a center of learning and one of the school's greatest assets. Giving students an understanding of various disease symptoms, proper treatment of simple injuries and ailments, care and feeding of the sick, as well as the study of nutrition were some of the areas taught by Mrs. Koski, home nursing instructor. This was the second year this interesting and practical course was offered.

Not only working for the faculty and student body, but also workin in cooperation with them, the office staff of G.P.H.S. kept the school running smoothly throughout the year. They always had time to do some special or extra item. Pauline Fearn. Mr. Thomas’s personal secretary, replaced JoAnne Meyer. Office cashier. Marjorie Hoi-thus, doubled as Mr. Harrison’s secretary. Recording attendance is no easy task, but Kathy Wallmann did an outstanding job. Joan Mildenstein handled the important job of preparing report cards and editing announcements. Completing her second year at the high school, Vivian Miller handled the counseling office secretarial choires with brisk efficiency. From eight in the morning, through the noon hour, during classes, and after school, the office staff battled the window business. It ranged from a lost student body card to a bleeding index finger. The flow of traffic at the windows seemed heavier this year, but the secretaries always managed a kind word and a pleasant smile. LIBRARY ASSISTANTS: Mildred Shawn and Bonnie Rhodes
