COUNSELORS AND SECRETARIES Mrs. Barbara Crockett Secretary Mrs. Joan Propst Secretary Miss Hattie Clemons B.S.; Virginia Union University Study Hall Supervisor Mrs. Mary Holloway B.A.: Westhampton Reading Coordinator Mrs. Propst works on the absentee list. Mrs. Crockett keeps financial records for the annual staff. Mrs. Holloway helped many students with their reading problems and Miss Clemons guided students in their studies. To insure that the school day would run smoothly, the secretarial staff arrived early and departed late. Acting as typists, accountants, errand girls, chaperones, and ticket agents for ball games, they, in truth, helped to form the backbone of our administration. As the 3; 10 bell sounded and we left for home, they remained and, finding the first silence of the day, worked dUigently on for several hours. When they left, the halls were empty and no “good-bye” met their ears. 21
