Helping direct students to correct offices and buildings is just one of the many tasks Y performed by Mrs. Julia Pope at the information counter. There are 52 hard-working clerks and secretaries I filling two shifts to keep up with the 13,000 students enrolled at Valley. These people include all of the secretaries and clerical workers in the Administration Building as well as the library, health oflice and other parts of the school. There are about 16 daytime workers who handle Admission duties, four in the tabulating room, six working in the Evening Division and approximately six keeping the affairs of the library. The entire staff encompasses clerks, clerk-typists, clerk-stenographers, stenographers, secretaries and others. One of the leading clerks is Mrs. Julia Pope, the information clerk in the Administration Building. An- swering questions such as, Where do you register? or, Where do I see a counselor? over and over, all day long, requires extraordinary patience. Mrs. Pope surely must be blessed with the gift as she is constantly being riddled with questions. The women behind the men Answering questions, however, is only one of the many tasks which Mrs. Pope performs. The college's lost and found is located in the information office, and Mrs. Pope keeps track of this. When the switch- board operator is not working, she is also relegated to that additional task. Mrs. Pope is only one of the many clerks who are really behind-the-scene workers. Without the entire staff of classified help, the college would not be able to function. A quartet of secretaries handles much of Valley's registration and counseling problems in the Administration Building. From left are Mrs. Leah Pflueger, Mrs. Barbara Tiffany, Mrs. Viola Dillon, student Michael Goldring and Mrs. Dorothy Cappella with Dean of Admissions Dr. John Reiter.

A zealous cafeteria worker, Ellen Peterson, clecrns up the food oreo after ci busy school lunch period. People at Valley consume great quantities of food as well as great quantities of knowledge. Mrs. Virginia King., head of the cafeteria, and her Staff devote many hours a day to feeding Valleyites. Between the cafeteria and the food vending machines near the Quad, a few thousand students and faculty members eat the numerous varieties of food offered. Needless to say, feeding so many people is a big job, but Mrs. King and her hard working staff are equal to the task. The coffee urns in the cafeteria and the coffee ma- chines near the Quad almost never get a rest as approx- imately 30 gallons of coffee are drunk by thirsty stu- dents and faculty members daily. Pies are a great favorite of those who patronize the cafeteria since baker Martin Gordon excels in preparing these culinary masterpieces. From 15 to 30 cafeteria staff members, depending on the time of year, work on school days preparing such tasty dishes as roast beef, salads, doughnuts and other specialties. As the professors contribute food for thought for Valley's minds, Mrs. King and her staff continue to pro- vide food for Valley's many stomachs. Hunger pangs away Hmmmmmmm good-is the usuol expression ofthe student body after they taste the gourmet's delight. Here baker Martin Gordon pulls his own creation out of the oven os Mrs. King looks on. Z. .afw-fa V. ...VW f 45248 lf
