T ' O ' M Guide Students To “Counselors gain as much from the interpersonal relations as the student does,” says Anna Marie Friedrich, the guidance counselor at A.H.S. Besides giving several aptitude tests, she also keeps the students’ records up to date, does educa¬ tional and vocational guidance, and personal coun¬ seling. The seniors often come to her for information on colleges, job opportunities, and the armed forces. “Yes,” says Miss Marjorie Halder- man, head librarian, library methods instructor, and Library Club adviser, “I feel that the importance of school libraries is being recognized more each year.” Miss Halderman, pictured here at the check-out desk, has a busy sched¬ ule supervising library assistants, keep¬ ing order in the library, coming to the aid of students needing report material and co-operating with teachers when ordering hooks.

Policies Relaxing a moment at a monthly board meeting are Arthur Stangland, Max Bighy, Superin¬ tendent Roy Seeborg, Arvid Wuonola, Clerk Ronald Trenhold, and 0. W. Dimick. School board chairman, Jack Daly, is shown left. The District 1C school board, made up of business¬ men from the area, tries to give Astoria the best possible school system. The board members serve a five-year term during which each gives much time and hard work. Serving as a link between the board and the admin¬ istration, Mr. Roy Seeborg, superintendent of schools, is responsible for school affairs. These include budget construction, hiring personnel, school policies, and building projects, for which he is accountable to the school board. He is helped by Administrative Assistant, Ronald Trenholm, who holds this newly created position for the first time. Mr. Roy Seeborg, who has been Astoria school supervisor for four years, often takes time off from his business duties to attend sports events at his Alma Mater. Astoria High. School Day 1 3

Wise Choices Mrs. Louann Schafer says that even though her main interest is in counsel- ing all girls of A.H.S., she enjoys teach¬ ing Competitive Speech and Commun¬ ication Skills. Although the job of Dean of Girls is time-consuming with its numerous duties, Mrs. Schafer finds time to ad¬ vise the Forensic Club and the Girls’ League, and as a member of the Assem¬ bly Committee, has an active part in planning assemblies for the school year. In her leisure time she enjoys skiing and tennis. Art and music interest her, too. “I really like it here,” says Mr. Marshall, counselor and hand director, as he is interviewed in his office. He goes on to explain that in counseling he talks with students about personal problems, and voca¬ tional or college preparation. He also does all the individual testing and helps Miss Friedrich with group testing. Mr. Marshall came to A.H.S. in 1956 as band director and has, at different times, been director of the chorus and taught typing and senior math. Besides teaching the band and counseling, he advises the rally, the pep band, and the Boys’ Federa¬ tion. His after-school time is taken up with reading and listening to music. School Day 1 5
