One of the many tasks performed by the board of education this year has been the installation of lights in the football stadium and an addition of 3,000 seats. Binding up broken bones and weighing and measuring the students are a few of the duties of Mrs. Emma Bongartz, nurse, and Harry Lautenschlager, doctor. Teachers and students alike find the clinic a valuable rest haven. In addition the clinic prescribes treatment for the aches and pains and diagnoses future medical cases. Dr. Lautenschlager who is always peering down students' throats, finds that on the whole Oakwood pupils are healthy with only a few cases of flu, measles, and mumps breaking out.

THE PCTENTATES Miss Kimmel Mr. Bigelow Miss Weber Mr. Crum S-3 S-22 S-1 S-21 Taking over Miss McDonald's position to the Bond Winning homeroom was Miss Kim- mel, coming to the girls of S-3 in their junior year. Although she was their homeroom ad- visor for only two years, the girls got to know her well, and many good times have been shared by them. Miss Kimmel never failed to try to lead her girls to victory in any school competition. Mr. Bigelow, better known as Coach , will long be remembered by the boys of his homeroom for the fair play and good times with which he was always generous. To the boys of S-22, Coach is just another one of the gang, never afraid to break down and laugh at a good joke. Whether or not the boys listened, Coach could always be depended on for a friendly word of advice. 1207 Miss Weber has proved an able and friendly advisor for the girls in S-l through the six years of their high school days. She has guided them spiritually as well as edu- cationally by reading a selection from the Bible or an appropriate poem every morning. The girls in Miss Weber's homeroom have had many good times planning parties and par- ticipating in school activities together. Mr. Crum, the scientific sentinel of S-21, starts every morning with a bang from his gavel. His pleas to the boys for quiet and co- operation are usually ignored, but they will never forget his encouragement during the direst hours of need Kusually before exams? and his willingness to enter into any fun that the boys may have had planned. KThis last statement must not be taken to broad1y.J
