But our secretaries do just this, plus a lot, lot more - and yet usually have smiles on their faces! MRS.

THE BACKBONE OF LOHS... ADMINISTRATION MR. MORTELL KINSER, an assistant prin- cipal, checks his calendar before scheduling another meeting. MRS. MARY JEAN BLAZO explains a schedule change to student Christine Birtch. Unfortunately much of the counselor's time ls taken up making schedule changes. At the beginning of the school year students were greeted with the news that the school board wanted to crack down and not let students get away with breaking school and state rules. But in the end it would be Mr. Durls, Mr. Schaible, Mr. Kinser, and the school's faculty who must enforce the rules set by the school board. They are the ones who must check the parking lot for students who are skipping classes, or check passes on students wandering the halls, or check the smoking lounge for under age smokers. It takes a special type of person to take care of students' everyday complaints. But our secretaries try their hardest. 172 Backbone I X.

And then there is the fact that the cooks are here early every morning to get ready to serve breakfast. Then there are the janitors. They have to go around cleaning up after our messes. Last year they even painted our walls yellow and green. New this year, mothers volunteered to make phone calls for the high school and monitor the halls. Their main duties involved checking for passes and checking the bathrooms for smokers, tokers and jokers. Some helped in the lunch room by helping clean up in 174 Backbone
