Library Mildred Lott Library When you are assigned an outside report on any one of a dozen topics, more or less, the place to go is Hirsch's library. Weighing down the full shelves are to be found every type of encyclopedia, fiction book, reference works, in short, all kinds of books, and magazines, all chockfull of interesting information for the intellectually curious student. When a pupil can not locate the desired material, Mrs. Lott, the librarian, or her assistant, Miss Higgins, comes to the rescue. With their aid, an intelligent student H-nds no research work difficult. Mrs. Lott has forty-five help-ers, who are selected from the student-body, and who form many important cogs in the librarial machinery. book Room Think of the confusion-think of the disastrous results if 35,000 books Qfor that's how many there are, including those in the library and in the book-roomj were allowed to roam around at random without a home, without regulations. You think-it over- whelms us. All the textbook troubles are assumed by the workers in the book room, which is under the supervision of Mr. Isherwood. They keep tab on the location of every book and set of books. Twice a year-in June a-nd December-inventory is taken by Mr. Isherwood. Tat- tered books are either discarded or sent to the rebinding department of the Board of Education and new books are purchased. Bookroom Ratt' I: Peilrlersou lilziir.

Gym James Paterson Edward McMahon Earl Bland Verna Baker Vera. Trayford Physical Education Department All of Hirsch's students are afforded ample opportunity to exercise strenuously their vocal, mental, and athletic skills in the innumerable activities outlined by the physical education department. During the course of the school year instruction in every type of sport is given to all studentsg and intra-mural tournaments in these same sports provide each boy and girl with a chance to demonstrate his ability a-nd sportsmanship, and an occasion to enjoy the thrill of keen competition. Grand Crossing Park, which is situated across the street, east of the school, is the physical education departmentls biggest blessing. Here in the spring and in the fall, the gym classes exercise in greatest freedom, buoyed on not only by the lack of cold Walls but also by that certain something of the open air. Grand Crossing Park sees a truly great amount of physical exertion and enjoyment. It must be confessed that, although on this page there is a picture of a Hne park containing a few picturesque humans in the foreground, that it is not the Hirsch athletic field that is depicted. Jackson Park has that honor. 23
