Miss Franées Miller Mrs. Elsie q 1) ae Librarian Library Clerk The groups which serve the greatest per- centage of any student body are the admin- istration, library, custodial and cafeteria staffs. They serve all and are concerned with the welfare of the entire school family. While the administrative offices plan and oversee our curricular efforts; while the custodial and cafeteria staffs are concerned with our bodily needs; the library, the heart of the school, nourishes our minds and encourages intel- lectual curiosity. Value of the library can be gauged by its constant use before school, during every period and after school hours. No textbook studying is allowed. Space must be saved for those doing research for classes or general reading. Yes, the library is the heart of the school. ‘ A eC 2... Dozens of monitors, library, class, and lab student assistants serve Jefferson on a 7:40 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. schedule. Pictured above are only some of them.

Mrs. Virginia Wright CUSTODIAL AND CAFETERIA STAFFS Mrs. Willie B. Moses checks off the day’s duties with members of her staff: Esse Page, Marion Johnston, Viola Davis, Mary Shank, Ethel Falin, Mildred Slusser, Pauline Poindexter. 29 Mr. Edward L. Gillespie, Head Custodian, and Mr. William E. Smith, check and approve the electric control that op- erates the motorized overhead crane, which in turn empties coal buckets into furnace hoppers. Our service staffs continually take ad- vantage of new techniques which benefit and protect their charges. Metal fire doors were added last fall; all stairwells were en- closed. Not only does the Cafeteria feed hungry Jeffites, but it acts as a training school in lunch Management. The lapel green T worn by most of our cafeteria workers in- dicates that they are management trainees, doing their classwork too—in Food Prepar- ation. Preliminary classes are completed; studies in care of equipment, Sanitation and Nutrition form the next parts of Man- agement in-service training.
