ua we ll ua the s 11 unite nance Mrs. Jonas—This capable arm of the maintenance service takes care of all the girls' locker rooms, the white kitchen, and Mr. Michelsen's room. For this reason she is better known to the girls than to the boys. Her hobby is baking birthday cakes, and showing the girls in the Home Ec. department a few tricks her hobby has taught her. When at home she spends her spare time raising flowers, and can wield a mean pruning shears. Mr. Stien—If you ever have a crossed wire, or a burned out connection, (light, of course) just call Mr. Stien. He is the chief engineer of the college and his main job. much to the appreciation of us students, is keeping the building warm in winter. John Urbanowski—John the janitor is a permanent character around school, who never forgets a face and whose Hello, there lets us know we're back in school when the semester starts. He is general handyman around school; sweeping halls, cleaning rugs, dusting, and washing boards are his chief duties. If you want a door opened or an errand run just call on John. His services are always at your command. Frank Mansavage—Frank has a variety of duties which take him to the main building, the training school, and the demonstration school. Everyone knows one of his duties—cleaning up the Training School Gym after dances, fights, basketball games, or anything else the students happen to organize. His most important duty, however, is one of acting. He loves it, too, and so do the kids at the Training School. He's Santa Claus at Christmas. Mrs. Higgins—What would the Dorm be without a general overseer? Even Miss Neuberger and Mrs. Finch find it hard to keep the girls in line, but with the help of Mrs. Higgins their task is lightened. She manages the Dorm kitchen with a firm, yet pleasant, personality which has won the admiration and respect of all the girls. Mr. Davis—Though Mr. Davis' duties are only in the Training School, he is the lifelong friend of every Senior. He's the Training School janitor, and what a help he is to those struggling practice teachers. He is always ready to lend a helping hand in any predicament, and has perfected a walk that is as noiseless as a cat on felt. You can never hear him, but can find him only by looking. Mr. Parks—Whenever anything is broken, out of order, or just caput around the building, it winds up in Mr. Parks' repair shop. We don't believe that any job in the repair line has ever stumped Mr. Parks. Sc, if you want it fixed, see Parks. That's the motto of the school. — 30 —

utie an Doctor Marrs, commonly known as Doc , is a friend of the students as well as being their doctor. His cheery hello wherever you meet him seems to pep any one up. Even to go into the health quarters and see the spick and span equipment and the white starched uniforms seems to scare the bugs out of you. This year his drive to eradicate tuberculosis was ever stronger. This health service is greatly appreciated by all the college students and faculty. Doctor Marrs devotes a great deal of his time to this service and should be highly recommended on his unfailing and untireing work. Quiet, and unassuming, he is almost forgotten by the students until something happens to them; then they fully appreciate him and his work. Nurse Mary Neuberger is indispensable in the health service. She is very expert in injecting medicine with the new spray, and does she clear your head out! Go and find out just what she can do about that cold, and you'll see. Another of her duties is to keep files of all the case histories of the students. These she meticulously keeps; and if a student is sick, these records show just what has been the matter with him before, and what course to follow. In addition to helping Dr. Marrs. Miss Neuberger checks the rooms in the dorm at least once a week, and insists that all rooms be clean and neat. Now do you believe that the health service has a job? Three cheers for them! — 31 — Dr. Fred Marrs Nurse Mary Neuberger
