When she entered the office, Penny was greeted by Mrs. Venn Zimmerer and her assistant, Miss Gertrude Albrecht, who handed her the list of duties of oiiice clerks. Included in this list were sorting mail, answering school and room phones, distributing bulletins, taking care of necessary filing, summoning people at the various teachers' requests, and running other miscellaneous errands. Penny received extra points for Torch for this work. Pete also found enjoyment in his work as one of the radio announcers. The announcements were approved by Mr. Carl Jensen before his staff delivered the mes' sages to the student body over the public address system. Mr. Johnsons small coterie of assistants took charge of contract collections, tabuf lated grades, and kept a complete record of every student who has ever gone to Highline. The personnel department proved very successful in aiding employers and em' ployees alike. Mr. Carl Jensen can well be praised for his progressive activity in this department. Besides the regular routine of the office, Penny and Pete helped to track down students who were charged with truancy. Late in the year it was announced that Miss Dorothy O'Neil would receive the position as assistant school secretary which was vacated by Miss Gertrude Albrecht, who became secretary to Mr. Lyle Daverin, secretary of the newly organized admin' istration. Courtesy, tactfulness, and dependability are the byfwords of the entire office crew, and their absence would be deeply felt. Jannsen, Cstlun d, Robinson Vena Ziinmerer Miss Gertrude Albrecht , 4

ANGELS OF MERCY Under the skillful direction of Miss Charlotte Gandolfo, and with the aid of Eleanor Iverson and Shirley Sherard, all those girls who were interested in the fundaf mentals of first aid met last fall in the girls' room. Those who were chosen as student nurses have proved themselves worthy of the trust placed in them. During the past year they have administered first aid care to many pupils who reported with minor burns and cuts acquired in shop and chemistry or who were incapacitated because of some illness. Besides giving aid to those who needed it, it was the duty of these girls to keep the girls' room in order, and they did a very fine job of it, too. KNIGHTS IN ARMOR They were on duty every day of the past yearfthose knights in gold. Knights they were in more than name for their important duties included the patrolling of the halls and the football and basketball games. In selecting the fellows to act as members, the democratic system of voting was used. Each name of the aspiring candidates was presented before the standing members and the ones most suitable were chosen. It was in this way that Pete became a member. His selection as a member not only pleased himself but Penny also. She liked the idea of Pete wearing the gold sweater. Pete liked the idea of the sweater and also the escape from homeroom. Pete enjoyed working with Captain Gus Salkeld and Ethan Austin in directing hall traffic. He thought Mr. Jensen and Mr. DeRoin as faculty advisers also proved to be regular fellows. During the course of the term the Knights of the Cutlass enjoyed several social activities under the supervision of Allen Beaudry, Pete surely enjoyed the Washington State football game and the swimming party at the Y.

These words have had a real signiiicance to Penny and Pete since December 7. They realize the special responsibility that rests upon the airfraid warden and their advisers and are only too glad to cooperate in any measure that will aid in national defense. The wardens have been studying the problem of congestion in the halls, the various types of bombs, and first aid work. THE KNIGHTS OF SERVICE This year, for the first time, the Pirate Babes had a service club, dedicated to keeping the lower halls of Highline quieter and more orderly. The Knights of Service were modeled after the Knights of Cutlass and have had about the same program. They patrolled the halls, lunchroom, and helped in any way possible to make this year's Eighth Grade class a success. The officers of this club were: .lack Magner, president, George Zimmerman, vicefpresidentg Donald Williams, secretaryftreasurer, and Mr. Iverson, adviser. This club was planned as a permanent part of each year's Eighth Grade class, and if it continues as successfully as it has been it will prove of invaluable service. LADY LIFE GUARDS Penny thought it would be fun to join the Girls' Patrol. Wzitching her fellow students make their dramatic entrances into the lunch room and keeping order among the ravenous crowd, she, with Lois Bierce as head patrol member, spent her homerooms supervising, Working first shift were Patty Latourette, Joan Christensen, Myrtle Robinson, Pat Pettif bone, and Colleen McGinty.
