l I .. .. ' 1'-' HL .1-nt-,-: -. V . Mrs. Walter and Mrs. Farber search for the missing piece of a financial puzzle. Information Please Clicking typewriters, shuffling papers or the familiar voice of Mrs. Lorraine Parsons on the intercom were everyday sounds in the busy office of S-M East. Students purchasing tickets for athletic events or seeking answers to various questions found these ladies cour- teous and able to help. Mrs. Agnes Miller probably knew more about students than they suspected for she recorded grades and worked with permanent records. Facts and figures kept Mrs. Ella Louise Walter occupied in her job as bookkeeper while Mrs. Maxine Farber and Mrs. Peggy Lammers took dictation, typed reports or assisted the counselors. A closing file door, the snapping of light switches or the silence of the typewriters signaled the end of a day of school business. Official Line-Up: Mrs. Parsons, Mrs. Lammers, Mrs. Walters, Mrs. Farber, and Mrs. Miller. U? Q -'l!'Q G' ? '11-416

'K- Mr Hawkins and Mr. Wilhm play one-armed tug-o-war with the Faculty Association dues. Facult c Fusion Tis education forms the common mindg just as the twig is bent the tree's inclined. This quote from the pen of Alexander Pope exemplifies one of the principal reasons why teachers from the seven Shawnee- Mission district schools joined the Faculty Association. S-M .East boasted a one hundred per cent member- ship in the association. ln their four meetings a year teachers learned from lecturers and programs new ideas in education and ways to improve themselves as teach- ers. Committees formed the working branch of the association. Illustrating their accomplishments was the Scholarship Committee which awarded two col- lege scholarships in education. Shawnee-Mission teach- ers cultivated the seed of knowledge so that it would grow with their students to maturity. -.-..... -----..-...-.., .... na..- --..---,- - -.,--.. chairman, promotes public relations

Headaches and Handiwork Shawnee-Mission East's student repair service, managed by Mrs. Nedra Boyer, school nurse, hanf dled all first-aid and routine health problems. Her cabinet of remedies resembled the laboratory of an alchemist with its bottles and pills, and contained ointments and cures for a score of ills. When patch- work was necessary, bolts of gauze were ready to swath a cut or a burned finger. Stacks of blue dental cards, boxes of cough drops, absentee lists, and the busy phone were signs of the versatility of Mrs. Boyer's student hospital. The building repair service was operated by Richard Hopkins, head custodian, and his staff of assistants. They worked around-the-clock keeping the halls highly polished, the plumbing in order, and the school mechanism in condition.
