QQ ASSEMBLY The assembly room or the auditorium is located on the third floor. Every Monday morning the students assemble and Prof. Hake gives us pointers for the week and supplies current information which is on the docket . Then we enjoy a special program by some organization or by a guest speaker. Every student has a special seat assigned to him and keeps it for the school year. Our auditorium is often used for community activities as it offers a great seating capacity and has an excellent stage. The stage is used for all public school functions of the year such as plays, concerts, etc. LIBRARY The library, located on the second floor, consists of two rooms. The west side of each room is lined with book shelves and well filled with good reading matter. S300 are spent for the purchase of new books and periodicals yearly. Our library has seven sets of encyclopedias. The library is used as a study hall and every period of the day is well filled. Often parties are held in the rooms. The picture shown on the opposite page represents a typical study hall although there are more students shown than make up the usual assemblage. There are eight such study periods dur- ing the day. A teacher is in charge of each. HONOR ROLL This year all those making an average grade of 90 or above were honored by having their name placed on a special notice on the bulletin board and in the Beat. Those on the first semester honor were: Back row-Dorothy Smith, Wilma Root, Marjorie Zielke, Melba Whitman, Elaine Smith, Bernadine Brown, Elsie Phillips. 2nd row-Mary Avis Phillipson, Marjorie Krug, Lenard Kenney, Alan Shav- er, Don Shaver, Gilda Fields, Mary C. Peake, Marjorie Hill. lst row-'Jane Edwards, Lois Patterson, Dorothy McKeague, Dorothy Baker, Doris Simonson, Fern Riggle, Jeanne Reedy. Irene Patterson was not present. While the school engages in many extra-curricular activities, it emphasizes, above all, scholarship. It was impossible to show a picture of the second semester honor students since this book is to be distributed before the end of the semester. We do wish to pay tribute to these high ranking students.
