Frequent Absences lnvestiguted By Attendance Clerks The attendance clerlis, Mrs. Barbara Mize, Mrs. Lois Cloudis, and Mrs. Betty Cook, could be excellent in- vestigators, or so is said by many students. These women are responsible tor admitting late-coming stu- dents to class, and recording the reason tor tardiness. Students are seen waiting in line, as they explain their need to checlc in or out, and otten times are seen calling their parents to Verity their stories ot woe. Many telephone calls come to the school con- cerning the absence ot students, and it is the secre- taries iob to sort out the calls as tor real or phony. A visit with Mr. John Moore is necessary at times when records show that a student has been absent too treguently.
