£j GALLEON I he first number of the Galleon was issued last year during the third week of school under an editorial board composed of last year ' s staff. After the first three issues a staff was chosen by .Miss Murphy, faculty adviser, and Jack McChesney, secretary of publications. This staff continued to function until the end of the first six weeks ' period of the second semester, when a change was made which seemed for the best interests of the paper. The staff during the first semester was: Lorraine Huber and Kenneth McComb, editors; Marian Morehouse, associate editor; Carl Seybold, sports editor; Bob Bar- ragar, columnist; Bill Hail, busine:s manager, and Fay Youngblood, exchanges. Dur- ing the second semester, Kenneth McComb requested that he be made sports editor, and Carl Seybold was made feature editor. The staff during the second semester was accordingly as follows: Lorraine Huber, editor; William Goss, assistant editor: Carl Seybold, feature editor; Kenneth McComb, sports editor: Sam Clayton, assistant Sim N; 1 ' helma Wieburg, women ' s news; Bob Barragar, columnist; Bill Hail, business manager, and Frank Strickland, circulation. Although the paper did not increase in size, due to a lack of finances, it has been generally conceded that it has shown improvement and development over the past year. During the last semester an effort was made to increase the interest and value b running timely cuts of news events and personalities about the campus. This is prob- ably the main innovation attempted by the paper during the year. A] Van Gilse represented the paper on the executive board the second semester as secretary of publications. The work of Lorraine Huber and Kenneth McComb as editors of the Galleon was very efficient during the entire vear.

LIBRARY Under the care and supervision of Miss Esther Ramont, librarian, the college library has had a most phenomenal growth in its first year of independent existence. Approximatelj 800 honk-, were transferred from Glendale high school to the junior college lihran in September. At the present time there are about 5,000 volumes on its shelves; 125 periodicals are regularly received by subscription, and a collection of bound magazines has been started. The lihran has been very comfortablj furnished, both for a reading or study room and a shelf room. The reading room has black topped tables and is well lighted and airy. ' The magazines are easy of access to students who use this room. Up to this time all the books in the library have been placed on the open shelves and will be kept there as long as it is practicable. Reference works accommodating practically every course in the college are either to be found in the library or have been ordered and will be on the shelves next year. In many cases several copies of a book have been purchased, especially where it is in great demand. History, literature, and science are all very generously represented in the collection and are the best works that can be obtained on these subjects. One of the features of the library has been the library class, which is conducted h Miss Ramont. tor the women in the college who have an interest in library work. Regular college credit is given for the work and the fundamentals of library routine are learned. The class assists in desk duty, cataloging and similar tasks which serve to train in the library profession. BOOK STORE Students of Glendale Junior College have found the book store a handy, well- equipped student store during the past year. Under the direction of Elmer T. Worthy the book store has grown during the three years of existence into a real necessity on the campus. Besides being a money-making organization for the student body, it serves anj student need for school supplies and text books. All profits made during the first two years were turned into stock for future use. However, during the past year the store has turned three hundred dollars into the stu- dent body funds and has purchased equipment and supplies totaling over two thousand. In addition, salaries are paid to the manager and assistants out of the income. During the first semester Elden Soper was manager of the book store, and Flor- ence Lounsbury and Frank Strickland were assistants. This last semester Florence Lounsbury was named manager, and Frank Strickland and Paul Hammond served as assistants. The addition of candy and ice-cream to the stock of the store during the first semester was well received by the students.
