Office Aides Constitute Modern Pony Express A deserted hallway, the resounding echo of weary footsteps, a clandestine wave to a friend in a classroom, the hesitancy experienced in walking into a busy classroom—these were a few of the joys and uncertainties a student office helper faced daily. These helpers served as the feet and hands for several office staffs at Woodrow Wilson. Forfeiting a study hall to work in the offices, students carried various messages to and from the classrooms. This year, after the faculty agreed to reduce hallway traffic by allowing no one in the corridors without a written permit, the office helpers were granted a special privilege: they were assigned official office badges with their names on them. These badges guaranteed unquestioned wandering in the hallowed halls. Student helper Brcncll Cherry collects absentee cards, completing one link in the chain of duties for the Pupil Personnel Office.

Miss Mary Ann Dodd, introduces Miss Carol Hildebrand's English class to the seemingly limitless numbers of volumes in the library. Library, Data Offices Scale Paper Mountain Working with the individual student was the main concern of Miss Mary Ann Dodd, school librarian. She likened the library to a laboratory, where both students and teachers can enjoy a learning atmosphere. The Woodrow Wilson library has hooks gauged to each different student interest, including an extensive careers file. Enriched by government funds, the librarians were able to obtain an abundance of new hooks this year. Cataloguing and shelving these books required the concentrated efforts of library clerks Mrs. Juanita Sandel and Mrs. Elaine Greer, assisted by the student library council. Mrs. Betty Jones, data processor, and her IBM machinery have become an essential part of Wood-row. Mrs. Jones was responsible for preparing report cards, student programs, attendance and grade books. In the modern, mechanical world. Mrs. Jones added just the right personal touch, her colleagues say. Mrs. Belly June Data Processor Miss Mary Ann I)ndd B.B.A..
