Kimball Offers Drivers' Education Every year the Drivers Education course teaches over tourteen hundred students. It is in demand more than any other course because ot the elimination ot a tvvo year wait and lower insurance rates. The course consists ot thirty hours in the classroom and six and one-halt hours behind the vvheel. The classroom section contains training devices such as brake reaction, vision, steadiness, and depth per- ception tests. By these means, the student not only is able to tind his weaknesses but the instructor is also able to help in these tields. Besides the tests, the stu- dents read and discuss daily assignments given trom the text. The actual six and one-halt hours behind the wheel consists ot two vveelcs on the driving range and one week on the road. While on the range the students learn how to shltt, stop, start, park, and back up. They practice precision driving by weaving around flags. The one vveek on the road consists ot driving in everyday trattic, When a student has completed the entire course, he is not yet ready to drive alone, He must tirst take both a written and a road test at the local police station.

' Mrs. Winifred Hartwig Librarian The Kimball library is one of the most important facilities the school has to offer, housing nearly 6,000 books which provide a storehouse of knowledge for all ambitious Kimball students. The library has space for approximately T50 peo- ple and accommodates up to 600 people a day. During all hours of the day, students from speech classes, science rooms, and study halls enter the library for research, study, or iust plain relaxa- tion. The selection of books is many and varied, the magazines keep Kimball students well-versed on all current happenings, and audio-visual devices are also available. The library staff, headed by Mrs. Hartwig and assisted by Mrs. Braeuninger, is made up of 36 Kimball students who are interested in obtaining valuable experience in library science. They re- ceive credit for their first two years on the staff and if they wish to continue with the work, they do so with no credit for the remaining semesters. A Library Science Award is given to a deserving graduating staff member who has given extra time and energy to the library. Mrs. Doris Braeuninger Asst. Librarian Ricky Goeckel is surrounded by Claudette Counts, Carol Baldwin, and Anna Biehy. They all seem to be eagerly study- ing for an up-and-coming test.
