A Il All IHI Here is the man who is a major factor in keeping both teachers and students warm and happy: the custodian, Mr. Melville Osborn. He supervises all phases of build- ing care. On clear days, once a month, he rings the flre-bell, as he is doing here. m MEMBERS Ill Mrs. Ruth Ashley fleftj, the book clerk, takes charge of all textbooks and school supplies. She receives lost articles and returns found ones. In addition to these duties, she is the school's cashier. On Fridays she sells street car passes to those students who commute.

Dr. Mates retained, of course, general responsibility and supervision of the school's staff and students. The making of the schedule, the handling of disciplinary prohf lems, the supervision of the lunch hour and the control of tardiness hecame headline duties of the vicefprincipal. The vocational counselor retained the varied assortment of duties which arise naturally out of his work: job placement, honor rating, tuition, scholarships, summer school scheduling, religious education, work applications and guidance.

THE lA lllll HIGH SCHIHH FAIIIIHY Dr. R. E. Ricketts, a Langley grad- uate, became our school doctor in September. He gives a thorough physical examination to every student who enters the school, plus follow-up examinations after illness and periodic check-ups. Here, he is testing the heart of James Pamozzi, a 7B. 41 These three members of the physical education department are responsible for developing an adequate program for the physical betterment of all Langley boys. In this picture Coaches Fred A. Bode, Lloyd L. Russell and Laurence Danver discuss the training program for the boys' classes. The girls have a physical fitness program developed somewhat differently from that of the boys. They play basketball, mushball, volleyball and tennis, but on an intramural instead of an interscholastic basis. Here, Miss Muriel C. Finlay and Miss Helen A. Dislcin are planning after-school schedules. 44'
