As Director of Curriculum of the entire Shawnee-Mission school district, Herbert Bruning was rarely seen any one place for long. Analyzing and studying new text books and workbooks seemed to be a never-ending task to him, however, this was not his only job. He also kept an up-to-date record of the academic preparation of the school's staff members, and worked with teachers in the continuous revision -of classroom curriculum. Responsible for all matters pertaining to attendance, clubs, and discipline was Vice-Principal Carl lson. His iob included keeping activity period running smoothly. Directing and supervising the activity programs, Mr. Ison still found time in his busy schedule to help be- wildered students with their problems. The ever-growing administration received a new member in Guy Barnes, Ad- ministrative Assistant. While certainly not new to Shawnee- s Mr. Barnes' freshman year at the new post. He supervised S-M's expanded transportation pro- gram which included revising bus schedules and routes, rams, and maintaining accurate in- Mission, this wa directing safety prog surance records. Coping with these overwhelming tasks was a full-time iob for S-M's corps of administrators.

Front Nina Woods Merle Sealey Lorraine Parsons, Thelma Hughes. I record collectors - business managers You're wanted in the office. This message usually sent terror into the mind of its hearer. While this was a common phobia, there was seldom any reason for it. Usually it was lust a check to see if a locker partner ever found the combination to the communal cubby hole, or the identification -of a misnamed absentee. lnnumerable assignments confronted the office staff, and the increased enrollment multiplied its work. Compiling huge absence lists of over 600 students during the flu epidemic was a unique experience, while passing out the white absence permits and the dreaded pink excuses was a habitual duty. Behind a high counter setting off the office staff's domain, files housed transcripts and permanent records, all kept intact through the efficiency of the staff. Typewriters tapped con- tinually as S-M'si correspondence was carried on, and the business ofoperating the six district schools was completed. Training a junior staff to synchronize activities at the new high school provided an additional task. Calmly and cheer- fully these ladies handled the work that flowed through the office, even to aiding the desperate individuals attempting to get the time stamped on absence permits. Whatever the cause for a trip to the office, results were seldom fatal. The larger crime deserves the larger slip-the pink one! Ted decides the plight of B. J. Lewis and Susan Gillette. T9
