Library A librarian on duty finds herself checking books, maga- zines, and dictionaries in and out for most of the period. Each has a turn at dusting shelves and bookcases and also seeing that the 22 up-to-date magazines obtained by the school are kept in order. The library room had its face lifted this year as its wood- work was painted from brown to a bright blue-green. Whether it s for research or just for finding a good book to read on a winter night, the card files in the library are an im- mense aid to students. The right book found, a li- brarian is then on hand to check it out. 24

Curtain Cjoinfl Up! On Mm ’, L Under the direction of Miss My rand, the Junior cLass presented its annual play, “Mama's Baby Boy. Co-starring in this year's production were Karen Asbjeld and Don Wiberg as a middle- aged widow and widower who found that marriage for money isn't the an- swer. Other members in the cast in- cluded Clark Anderton, Kathleen Ost- lund, Jackie Nygaard, Janice Lundgren, Ramona Day, Lorine Hagen, Kathleen Farley, Wendell Larson, and Ramon Swanson. Weather proved to be a contender in the presentation, as the season's most severe ice storm prevented the usual Thursday and Friday night per- formances. As a result, the play was given on Friday and the following Mon- day night. Top: We're looking for ‘Mama's Baby Boy.' Bottom: The cast takes a bow. Top: For money or love?
