AIICHC S21L1dCf and the bookmenders kept the school library in order and repair. Their jobs were unending, without any slack season or a rush. Arlene and her staff of librarians were busy every period signing out books. The elementary libraries were nearly as busy, as the children loved to read. In addition to their reading, the students spent time merry-go-rounding and riding their bicycles to and from school. The smell of fresh tar and the noise of heavy machinery made study practically impossible in the fall as county engineers fixed Summit Street, better known as the street directly north of the school. Because of the closing of the street for resurfacing, students experienced the pain of walking to school from the bus sheds, through rain or shine, every morning and evening for a short time. A new ecmmunity crgaaizaticn formed this year was the Pettisville District United Fund, Inc. The funds collected were divided among ten organizations. The drive netted a satisfying S4408.50. Mr. William Minner, agriculture teacher, and Mr. Chauncey Mull were captains of the Pettisville UF drive. Miss Cron's much-improved band held a Halloween party in Judy Short's barn, October 17. They played games and enjoyed typical teen-age refreshments. This forty-eight piece band made many trips up and down streets of Pettisville in practice sessions. This practice went on every Tuesday and Thursday in fall and spring, except when the weather was bad. The senior class spent a day at the Federal Reserve Bank in Cleveland. The trip was sponsored by the Peoples State Bank of Archbold. Many classes celebrated Halloween with parties. Grades seven and eight held their parties at school. The sixth grade was entertained at Mary Jane Rychener 's home. A group of FHA girls toured the Campbell Soup Plant in Napoleon in November. Miss Grace E. Cron and Jerry Weber are enjoying a game of Reuben and Rachel. Those watching are David Rupp, Mike Rychener, Diane Seiler, Marcia Short, Glora Belle Rychener, Jackie Weber, Jean Ann Rupp, Gloria Wagler, Doreen Lantz, and Mary Helen Liechty. Steve Rupp and Sharon Nofziger sample the food at the band party at Judy Short's home. Jim Ray stands in the other room waiting his turn. The band marches around Pettisville during one of their practices. 114
