A f.J staff Alfonso Zavala Vera Douglass Robert Tremfsh Tom Porter Vera Douglass gives assistance to onlooker Ruth Abramson. How do I make a deposit? Do l make a withdrawal like this? One of our problems is that people don't seem to understand our banking pro- cedures, according to Vera Douglass, our school financial Secretary. But competent new club sponsors, with whom we dealt closely, helped to make our jobs easier. There was al- ways something to keep the five vol- unteer students on the staff busy and thinking. If we weren't collecting fees, selling tickets to sports or social events, or passing out junior and soph- omore pictures, then we were likely to be occupied with paying WJ's bills or perhaps preparing a monthly financial statement. Tom Porter commented, One of the most time-consuming jobs was keeping the books on all our accounts throughout the entire year. That in itself could rattle anyone's brain.
