M I(,| The World Revolves Before Us Truly a world of knowledge is stored in North High ' s extensive library. In the approx- imately twelve thousand books in the library, students may find the answers to their ques- tions, material for research, and many books for just plain pleasure. The librarians, Mr. William Bartels and Miss Ruth Rowan, are enthusiastic about aiding students in finding books to interest them. The task of the social science teachers is now greater than before. It is their responsi- bility to aid students to understand the work- iogi of their government and its policies, as well as acquaintance with the governments of •other peoples. } m f gig ■ ■ I rH 1 m M to3 BOOKS, BOOKS — Left: This ipS wk crew is responsible for keep- ing our library books in good Pi ' ' - jBL condition.

Nichols pause for an after-school chat. Science Leads Needless to say, in this age of science, with more positions in the field available, the student interest in science has increased. With opportunities for young scientists such ? as the Westinghouse Talent Search to en- courage them, it is little wonder that students are interested in this newly popular subject. For freshmen there is general science, biology for sophomores, chemistry and physics for juniors and seniors — a scientific curricula for every year of high school! There is also a complete course in agriculture. Also a field of science but a different aspect of it, that of preparing young women for careers as housewives and mothers, con- tinues to climb in popularity.

EFFICIENCY EXPERTS — Miss Chloe Fields and Miss Isabelle Daou grade workbooks before the semester grad- ing is completed. Take A Letter — Though business definitely needs executives and management, equally important to the survival of the efficient office are its secre- taries and office workers. North High ' s able business teachers believe these subjects to be important. And important they are too. Without these business essentials a commercial nation, such as the United States is, couldn ' t possibly function efficiently. Students taking some of the advance com- mercial courses help teachers by mimeograph- ing tests and most other needs of teachers not requiring print shop work. The school also endeavors to find jobs for responsible gradu- ates. BUSINESS HEADS — Upper left: Miss Elsie Deaver and Miss Ruth White glance over results of a recent test.
