Our custodians were Mr. Larry DeMar, Mr. Curtis Leslin, Mr. Emil Blomquist, and Mr. Albert Bentz. Custodians The custodians continued their job of keeping U High in good condition. After the daily exodus of the student body, they removed the traces of the students from all the places where they had left their marks. Their job continued in an almost endless progression of days and for their work we thank them. Mr. Gerald Stockey talks to Mr. Norman Skibbe, custodian foreman. Our office staff consisted of Miss Marilyn Foss, Miss Arlene Backlund, Miss Mary Des Marais, and Miss Edith Nyquist. Office Staff The office stoff, under the supervision of Miss Edith Nyquist, did its customary efficient job of keeping students and their records in good order. Their variety of tasks ranged from tardy slips to PTA communications. Miss Nyquist directed the staff and the student pages and insured the continuation of a well-run office. 20

Health Miss Marian McReavy: This is not a treatment center! Dr. Emma Fronk was kept busy as U High's physician. Library The U High library was a busy place this year. Miss Edith Kromer, our librarian, opened the school year by orienting the seventh grade students to the use of library facilities. Assisting her were Miss Rosario Ang and Miss Darla Jean Hicks. Twelve student pages were on duty every day to aid students in looking for books and reference materials. During Book Week last fall, an attractive arrangement of the books of the year was displayed in the corridor. Additions to the U High collection included approximately 600 hard cover books and 250 paperbacks. These books covered all subject areas with concentration on music, art, and the study of languages. The third edition of Webster's New International Dictionary was also acquired. Winter quarter remodeling of room 145 left the library with a new periodical room and materials processing area. U High's health department stresses the importance of preventing health hazards before they start. In tune with this, Dr. Emma Fronk and Miss Marian McReavy, school nurse, began the year by giving all new students physical examinations. Other students were scheduled for similar examinations throughout the year. Both the doctor and the nurse were on duty all morning. They worked in close connection with the University Health Service. Miss Edith Kromer arranged files for the new periodical room in the library. 19
