S. is the library. A favorite spot to students and faculty alike, the library is in constant use throughout the day. The Hrst library, started in 1929, was a small room only big enough to hold a few students, and contained relatively few books. Moved to its present place in IQB4, the library can now accommodate many more students and pro- vides more than fifty-three hundred books for student reading. For news on world events, biographies and autobiographies of famous people, informa- tion on occupations and professions or just good fiction reading, the library is the place to go. A valuable place for free time, the library offers a useful and interesting selec- tion of books. 3 El Emma Lou Skinner, B.S., puts the morn- ing paper in its place. d Pagel3

At times there is a steady stream of students to the health room for a handout of pills, a bandage for a cut, reliel for a toothache, or just plain attention for some insigniticant wound. Between patients the nurse grabs the phone to check on some absentee. Years ago the nurse and dental hygienist together occupied a small room in the grade buildingg now they have the entire new suite in the high school building. Here they have ade- quate space for the routine jobs plus the state mandated physical and dental exams. Geraldine Smeltzer, RN., was the most popular person in the building during the grippe season. Ardean Tollinger, dental hygienist, checks and cleans our pearls . . . she is waiting for her next victim. tsl X fxllk .illllllk Um: Page I2 i 1 4' 92 N 1 - ..v.w.r--.N.,m.1anm- u 9 'l as .li M -f l mi.

Music, maestro, please! Could it be the unfinished symphony you are playing, Mr. Surplus? Toot away, kids! It sounds okay! 1 The music department of the school has been in existehce since 1923, although until 1Q3O only thel orchestra and a choral group or two existed in R.L.H.S. However, with the coming of football the need for a high school band became apparent, and from then on the music department began to expand its activities. Todayda large portion of the student body is active un some phase of music. In addition to the regular classes required of freshmen, there arelvarious instrumental classes to satisfy the desires of students to play wind or string instrumepts. In extracurricular work, the de- partments sponsors four choral groups, the band, orchestra, and dance band. 1 1 I l l l l i r I l
