Budgeteer ACCOUNTS square up neatly under direction of Business Mgr. Carl Allen. Budget wise and wary is Mr. Carl Allen, unit business manager under whose supervision thousands of dollars in student funds are handled each week. But teachers, administra- tors, and students long since have learned that it you go about this business of high finance with reasonable caution and follow the accept- able procedure, everything will go smoothly. Happy, too, are those who seek school sup- plies at our well-stocked Bookstore. Many are the bargains in books, paper, and sundry items. The Bookstore also houses a handsome trophy case and the walls are lined with attractive pictures of current student body leaders. More appealing, however, than the decorations in the Bookstore are the pleasant clerks there. CUSTOMERS are never lacking at the Bookstore, But then, neither is the service! Here students get prompt attention from smiling, efficient clerks Amy Armstrong, Violet Harding, Sunny Boatman, and K. E. Hirst.

DECORATIVE indeed are these secretaries! Seated are Reatha Hallmark, Rosemary Chavez, Gail Larson, Louise Arthur, Gladys L. Tussey. BACK: Catherine Addison, Wanda Franklin, Patricia Fraser, Lorraine Walkington. Efficiency. . .With Charm When the phone jangles, the outer office fills up with insistent visitors, and the morning mail screams for attention, who goes to work? The secretary, of course! Every successful business man attributes much of his progress to the efficient help of a Girl Friday who skillfully handles the countless details of a hectic day . . . a worker with a ready smile. Administrators require the services of well- trained secretaries. Stacks of correspondence, perplexed students andfor parents, a con- stantly ringing phone, files to check, data to locate, messages to relay . . . ! Yes, it takes someone with strength as well as charm to front for the boss. Moreover, the secretaries like our school . . . and they don't mind work! BUSY SIGNALS are commonplace in the lives of these busy ladies who keep the switchboard lights tamed and the Principal's Office business in smooth- running order. Shown on the job are Nadine Dearing and Betty Pretzer.

At The Helm HereWe Live Cur Democracy Best way to teach democracy and the Amer- ican way of life is to practice itl Hundreds of Phoenix Union High Students each year estab- lish the truth of that premise. With our Board of Control and Student Council acting out government by, for, and of the students eve- ry Phoenician was part of democratic process. GUIDING lights of the student body include Kent Olsen, president, Carlos Yturalde, vice president, Evangeline Yee, secretary: and Joe Benitas, rep- resentative-at-large for Phoenix Union. When a student violates a rule, he will be judged without prejudice by jurors who understand his problems and will give him every benefit of the doubt. Student Council representatives meet regularly to discuss and legislate for student body progress. Through representatives, students voice their opinions.
