is.. .'i? x, . x, xbgrj.. Y' A a f - XJ 4. I - Honor Home Room Home Room 215 surprised everyone when it turned in a one hundred per cent Annual subscription the opening day of the Annual drive. VVe feel certain that students with such a spirit of alertness and co-operation will make Le Conte proud of them when they are in high school. Miss White, their advisor, deserves a great deal of credit for inspiring this excellent spirit. The members of this home room, reading from left to right, top row, are Carl Uttrich, VVooton Johnson, Herman Kruell, Stephen Greenfield, William Condon, Norman Sweet, Harold Vleek, Floyd Newton, Jimmy Carpenter. Second row: Frank Keller, Philip Kilgore, Donna Anderson, Bernice Levin, Jeanne Taylor, Jane Alvies, lkiary Lee Cox, Mary Frances Hill, Paul Tebbs. First row: Dorothy Barkell, Alice Teitelbaum, Mary Makurjian, Miss VVhite, Ruth Ungar, Jennie Tetenman, Sylvia Hozman, Rose Barkell. It would be unfair if we did not also mention at this time the other one hundred per cent home rooms which came in almost immediately after 217. These home rooms are as follows: Room 104, Miss Volstedtg Room 108, lVIiss Blackmang Room 234, lyliss Joyg and Room 113, Mr. Gamble. All of these home rooms are A-Nine groups, which proves that we have a wide-awake graduating class this June. VVe hope that they keep up this fine spirit. Several B-Nine and A-Eight groups also had very good records, and we feel sure that they, too, will have one hundred per cent for their class books. 1941

Lost and Found The Lost and Found, in charge of lylrs. Thomas, is one of the most neces- sary and helpful departments of Le Conte. All lost articles and textbooks are turned in to this department. Besides taking care of lost and found articles, it also serves as a checkroom. A safe is provided in which children may keep Valuable articles and sums of money during the day. Book locker keys are given out at this department, and lockers assigned for books and musical instruments. Student workers are selected, one for each period of the day, two before and after school, and three students at each home-room period. During home-room periods any lost book or article having a name is returned to the owner. A numerical list and an alphabetical list of locker keys are kept by the students. If a lost article is not called for within thirty days, the article is returned to the finder. Students working in this department may earn merits or hours credit.

I' l Textbook Crew Under the direction of Bliss Pearl Beem the textbook crew has done most efficient work. It is through the work of this group that the textbook room is open from eight o'clock until after three for the convenience of students and teachers. The task-by no means an easy one-is to issue on the average of five books for each student at the beginning of the term, and additional books through- out the year to the same students and also to the new pupils. This necessi- tates keeping very accurate records. The boys receive credit in hours and merits and they are to be complimented on their cheerful spirit and willing service. The duties of the crew are filling orders for books, delivering them to recitation rooms, issuing and checking books, and assisting with the clerical work. Each boy spends one period a day in the textbook room. In the picture above, reading from left to right, are, first row: Dean Farlow, Courtney Haslam, Robert Trent, Chester Peterson. William Smirl, Robert Leslie, and Leland Topham. Second row: James Smith, Newton House, Pearl Beem, Elwood Kay, john Roberts. Third row: Paul Aiso, Garner Hamm, Edward Dixon. Robert Dexter. Absentees: Paul Tebbs and YVayne Crowley. l95l
