We Q Y' Cafeteria Workers dw, Q , Q. . Cafeteria Workers Preparing food for close to nine hundred people every day could exhaust even the strongest. To supplement the cafeteria staff who daily brave this staggering hoard of hun- gry students and teachers, assistants were re- cruited from the student body to help behind the counters. To compensate them for the time and energy they expended, these cafe- teria workers received fifty cents worth of lunch for each day of work. Operating this year without an exact sched- ule, each of the ten workers came in during the end of his own lunch period. The girls were responsible for putting out desserts and milk, and for serving hot plates whenever nec- essary. They frequently had to -pinch hit at the snack bar, while the boys washed the many trays, dishes, and silverware that were used. By making a combined effort with the women on the regular cafeteria staff, they managed to make sure that all of the students at Walter Johnson were able to get their lunches when and how they wanted them.

Bank The School Bank, sponsored by Mrs. Doris Westwood, is under the guidance of the bank- ing and accounting classes. In addition to giv- ing Cibfk interest on all deposits, the bank sells tickets to games, dances, plays, concerts, and other school activities, handles the money for the magazine drive, collects money for student pictures, sells yearbooks, and handles the Senior Class dues. The deposited money is invested in mortgages through the Perpetual Savings Corporation, thus deriving the interest due the various depositors. The bank is open during the three lunch periods and is available to both students and teachers. Money can be withdrawn at any time, but ample notice is appreciated on with- drawals of five dollars or more. The School Store To avoid the risk of being caught unpre- pared in class, Walter Johnson Students pack our school store before school and during the three lunch periods to stock up on paper, pen- cils, pens, maps and all other musts for school. ln addition to selling school supplies, the store carried study guides, athletic equipment, the College Outline Series, and, of course, Walter Johnson sweat shirts. Accounts were kept and the supplies were stocked by the student workers under the guidance of James Miers and Lee Bledsoe, student manager. The twenty workers, chosen from volunteers in the fall worked on a schedule of alternating shifts each week to provide us with the effi- cient service which has become a trademark of our school store.

Audio-Visual Aids The Audio-Visual Aids, a crew of approx- imately twenty-five boys, are the unsung heroes of every movie shown in WJ. When- ever a class sees a movie, it is the job of these heroes to run the projectors. Their main duty is working and maintaining the tape record- ers, records, and any other kind of audio- visual equipment that is needed. They also set up the light and microphones for school assemblies, work on production crews for such shows as The Curious Savage and Fantasia, and play records at lunch time. The operators, who may be excused from gym or any other minor subject, are headed by Harry English, Charlie Grubb, vice-chair- man, and Terry Howerton, technical adviser. The crew, which performs a real service to the school, consists of sophomores, juniors, and Zeniors and is sponsored by William E. Schroe- er. PA Announcers lmagine, if you can, a week in which there were no morning announcements. Meetings would be uncalled, dates forgotten. Sport scores would go unwept, unhonored, and unsung. Lost articles would remain unfound. Ticket sales and dances would be unheralded. Worse yet, number one vice-principal, Mr. William Bennett would have to send messen- gers, working twice as hard, to call in his offenders. Under the supervision of Mr. Bennett, our four announcers, Susie Allstetter, Ann Hallan- ger, Pat Hanavan and Claude Orndorff, were chosen early in the fall. lt is doubtful that our school would be the active and smoothly operating organization it is without the cheer- ful morning prodding of the PA Announcers.
