Zeadua ATTENDANCE SECRETARY Mrs. Aileene Richards' duties seem to end with the collection of attendance slips. Actually she receives calls from, or places calls to, about forty parents a day and must determine the validity of excuses. Our thanks are extended to Mrs. Richards for her valuable services. ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL Mr. Fred J. Miller, our assistant princi- pal, carries a heavy burden of responsi- bility in his double role of assistant princi- pal and athletic director. His job consists of distributing books, counseling students, and organizing many assembly programs and athletic events. Mr. Miller is a valu- able member of the administrative staff of WHS. W l SECRETARY Performing her tasks with a congenial- ity that defies the monotony of these duties, Mrs, Gertrude Tisdale never fails to solve the problems of the students, the parents, and the faculty. Her office runs smoothly and efficiently and has a pleasant atmosphere. 23
