AUDITORIUM STAFF N ECESSARY Places, house lights, curtain!

These assemblies offered diversified entertainment.

STUDENTS ELECT john Baum presided over the student cabinet for two semesters, along with Don Kushmaul, vice-president, Bill Agre and Georgianna Chisholm, first and second semester treasurers, Dorothy Doerfner and Wilowdezin Cassow, first and second semester secretaries. These cabinet officers represent Arthur Hill in an all-city student body, the junior Citizens Council, made up of delegates from each school and guided by Mr. Roy MacMurray, athletic supervisor, and Superinten- dent Miller. Advisories were linked with the ofhce by the daily announcements supplemented by the familiar public address system. Both systems bring special notices to the student. 'lhe student organization drive, which is launched by the Student Cabinet and is later brought back to the advisory, allows every student to buy a ticket which finances student activities. Advisories this year were divided into three groups, the Michigan Wolverines, the Minnesota Golden Gophers, and the Ohio Buckeyes. Boasting the fastest team the Wolverines came through with their choice of seats in the auditorium. Each advisory is a guidance agency for students, with the teacher serving as personal adviser of every student in his group. Difficult adjustments and circumstances which arise with the student are the concern of the adviser. The joint responsibility is vested in the stu- dent, his parents, and his adviser when planning the student's pro- gram of study. The teacher advises the student on subjects to elect in accordance with his interests, needs, and abilities. College prepara- tory students receive special help in planning a program which will meet the requirements demanded by the chosen college or profession. Advisories are the key to the smooth operation of activities and business at Arthur Hill.

GERALDINE BERENT, LORRAINE ESCKILSEN, and EDNA BAIN tabulate attendance records, MARIE ZEHNDER and CORNELIA SCHIBELHUT help MR. B. G. WELLS, school treasurer, MARJORIE ENSZER is secretary to Mr. David Gainey, athletic manager. OFFICE ASSISTANTS Assisting with duties about school, stu- dents share the work which keeps the Arthur Hill school in good running order. Students help as secretaries, messengers, hostesses, clerks, and librarians. Senior hostesses respond to the visitor's query, 'lls Mr. Brock in? or one of the office staffs, Will you deliver this request slip, please? The hostesses make school visitors comfortable and welcome and help the office staff in various ways. Six senior girls served as hostesses this year in the Community PROVE VALUABLE Room adjoining the office. The girls wrote letters of application and were chosen on the recommendation of teachers and Miss Ethel Peterson, according to their personality, poise, and scholarship. The student store is one of the many ser- vices afforded to students of Arthur Hill. The salesgirls give up library hours and are selected for their sales interest, ability, and personal reliability. Arthur Hill's library with an ever increas- ing book circulation provides students with easily accessible reference and reading facil- ities. With many books still on order, librar- ians have kept themselves busy during the past year cataloging and classifying new books. Special projects consisted of Book- Week, posters, and special displays of sports books and vocational stories. During their study periods, students work voluntarily as library assistants. While most Hillites are still deep in slum- ber, seven girls making up the Service Club trudge to school to arrive at 7:30 a.m. Their one, but necessary, duty is to keep students out of halls, classrooms, and lockers until the 8:00 bell rings. Gold Pins for recognition are given as a reward for two years of service and all club members are given free Student Organization tickets. Girls who assist in secretarial and book- keeping work gain useful experience in ol'- fice work, such as taking dictation, typing, filing, and mimeographing, which will be helpful when they become regular employees after graduation. Student assistants are used in the main office, the journalism room, the school treasurer's office, athletic managers office and do a great deal of school work in the advanced commercial classes.
