Z Secretaries Type, talk, track Armed with typewriters, tele- phones, endless amounts of paper and pencils, and the help of student aides, the secretaries kept the school supplied with a general air of orga- nization.

Ladies provide Books, bandages The heart of the 200 pod is the library. Mrs. Rachel Heath, head librarian, ordered and catalogued books and materials. Her staff loaned them to students and dis- pensed green reminders when the books were overdue. A good selec- tion of area newspapers was avail- able. Mrs. Celeste Reynolds, media coordinator, kept the calendar for the use of all media equipment - hardware and software. She also se- cured materials from the downtown Instructional Materials Center for faculty inspection. Nurse Teresa White kept a sup- ply of bandages, ankle wraps and ice packs to attend to minor injuries. She diagnosed flu and cold symp- toms, but did not treat them. Flu swept the school during the last week of February and absences soared. WWW 1. Mrs. Alethia Rahe helps Mrs. Celeste Reynolds catalogue new book selections. 2.

Cooks please ungry students When asked about the school lunches, most students replied with satisfaction and appreciation. For a few, though, it was hard to recog- nize the difference between prepar- ing a meal for a family of eight and a lunch-eating population of 850. In addition to preparing lunch for South High, the food service per- sonnel also provided 420 meals to the Grace E. Stewart Elementary School each day. Occasionally, dif- ferent menus had to be prepared for each school, keeping the kitchen staff alert to shortcuts and time- savers. Even with the increase in food preparation, less food was wasted. Two factors contributed to this: the change in content of a class A lunch and a wider variety of choices for student selection. 1.
