PICTURED below are the young women who also have important tasks in connection with the ef- ficient running of Hempstead High School. Some of them act as secretaries while others perform various and sundry clerical duties. Making appointments, adjusting schedules, bookkeeping and typing are just a few of the many duties these women per- form. Even though the day is long and tiring they are always willing to listen to you and help you in every way they possibly can. They also help to make the day easier for their immediate superiors by intercepting troubled stu- dents whose problems can be solved in a matter of minutes. Any time during the working day you can walk into one of the offices and find these young women going about their day's work with a smile.
