Left to right: MR. B 8. COWAN. MRS B. B COWAN. MR LOUIE L. MIZE. MRS. RAY EVANS, MR. CHARLES H. STUBBS. in By T. Jack Foster 1 he students of Norman High School have always taken the clean- E lincss of their buildings too much for granted. A great deal of appreciation is due our custodians, Mr. Mize, Mr. Stubbs, Mrs. Evans, and Mr. and Mrs. Cowan. There arc not many people who know’ that Louie L. Mize, the head custodian, was once a professional baseball player in a small league. He played first base with an Arkansas team was was many times winner. Seventeen years ago Norman witnessed the arrival of Mr. Mize to the place which he had selected as his home town.” Because of his ability and his leadership he was hired as superintendent of construction at NAT IC. better know’n to us as the South Base.” On June 1, 1943, he came to work at what we shall someday call our alma mater. Mr. B. B. Cowan, the head custodian at Junior High, has made his home in our fair city for more than two decades, and is still going strong. He went to work with the Norman school system in Febru- ary, 1934. He has been at “good ’ole Norman High however, just a short while, as he previously was located at Lincoln grade school. This year. Mrs. Cow-an has come to do her part in the war effort by working for her husband as custodian in the Junior High building. (Long may it stand!) Since they arc the only two working there, I wonder who the head custodian is now? Some time ago our custodian, Ray Evans, left Norman to go into the service of our country. Since then, Mrs. Evans has come to take his place. Her spirit is to be admired, considering she is a mother of two children. Mr. Stubbs is a newcomer to Norman High, but he is certainly not new in the local school system. He has been on the payroll for about eleven years. I don’t know about his capability, but when he came he replaced two men. [24] RELEASING A MAN FOR WAR Above: Mrs. Evans writing to her hus- band in the service, whose plocc she fills ot home.

SU'aittji attii Hraitta By Ernf.stini: Ward )1,1 Norman High School offices arc in the hands of two very capable ladies, Mrs. S. B. Spradling and Mrs. Pierre Delattre. Mrs. Spradling, Mrs. “Sprad.’ to you, is a Texas gal from down Vernon way. She attended Vernon High School, and also a business school in Texas. Then she got a job at the Vernon High School as clerk of the school hoard, which is the same job as she has now here at good ole N. H. S. She got married in 1930 and then she attended the University of Oklahoma, and the University of Cali- fornia at Berkeley. After her graduation she moved to Norman. She has two sons, S. B. and Charles. Lt. S. B. Spradling is now a prisoner of war in Germany. Mrs. Delattre. our high school registrar, is a lady who seems to do things by twos. She went to Northwestern High School in Detroit. Michigan, and then she went to Wayne University in De- troit. After two years at Wayne, she left school and got married. I-ater she went hack for two more years, and graduated. But in the meantime she had two sons. Roland and Pierre, and made two trips to France to visit her husband's parents who live there. Tile Dclattrcs came to Norman in 1941, and Mrs. Delattre says she likes Oklahoma very much. She even says she likes the climate. That’s one for Ripley!
