Our School Paper, THE COURIER, Continues To Be A Training Camp For Future Journalists The new Moderator of The COURIER, is not a newcomer to the field of Journal- ism. SISTER MARIAN SETON. who joined the Faculty of the Academy in Sep- tember, came to us from Resurrection Academy in Rye. where she had been Mod- erator of their School Paper. Since The COURIER had received special honors from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association during the past few years with SISTER STEPHEN MARIE as its Moderator, SISTER MARIAN SETON made few changes in the first issue of the Paper. She does, however, plan changes in fu- ture issues, and this is to be expected ... for without change there is no progress. It was probably at this meeting of a portion of the staff that someone suggested sparking interest in the first issue by offering a lollipop to anyone who found an error in the paper, fsealed) A.

As MR. ARNOLD, our Year- book Representative, ex- plains the fundamentals of Yearbook planning at a preliminary meeting of the staff, those present listened with interest and attention. In the fore- ground is ANNE CHISHOLM. Editor-in-Chicf. and at her right, but only part- ly visible, is MARY SUE GLESPEN. Managing Editor. In the second row arc EILEEN BANNON and ROSEMARY FEENEY; in the third row arc DEBBIE RYAN. MARGIE BELL and LIZ FORD Not included on this page are CAROLE SCAGNETTI. who took the pictures, and PAT ROWAN and KATHY COX. whom the camera missed. When MR ARNOLD lakes off his jacket and rolls up his sleeves, we know he is going to work and that we are too. He will leave no stone unturned to help us reach our goal and overcome our difficulties . . . The earnestness with which the five students in the picture above arc listening indicates clearly how- much they have to learn . . and how much MR ARNOLD can teach them about Yearbook produc- tion. Close to the camera, head turned from us. is PAT LYNCH. Second row. arc ANNE EDWARDS, CLAIR MARIE POPE. CHARLENE WHITE and NANCY KARK 37

With Our Library Growing By Leaps And Bounds S L A G Is Vitally Important An increase in the number of books is a joy to any librarian, even if it does mean much extra work. SISTER MARY JOSI- TA is no exception. Each request from a member of the Facul- ty is immediately granted—whether it be for a book or maga- zine—or other source material. Since SISTER JOSITA is also responsible for our AUDIO-VISUAL AIDS, she also obtains films, filmstrips, records and even equipment, for the use of Faculty and students. This requires that members of S L A G be especially trained to assist in the A V A (Audio-Visual Aid) Room. CAROL DI CARLO and JULIE HAGE have been re- sponsible for this phase of the Library Work. Students who have had previous experience in S L A G train new members in filing, accessioning, cataloguing. They seem to enjoy the responsibility of replacing SIS- TER ANGELICA or SISTER JOSITA at the Librarian's Desk whenever this is necessary. At the right, T. BYRNE is checking out a book for M E. PONESSA. Others in the picture are D O’KEEFE. D CELLA. A. EDWARDS. E O'CONNOR. C. MURA and P LYNCH One of SISTER JOSITA’s most welcome innovations this year has been the introduction of Paperback Libraries in each of the Residence Halls. At the right. M. KENEFICK and P. O’LEARY are cataloguing and preparing the books for circulation in Hams Cottage 39
