IIA lIBO0K UUMMITTEE As we worked we laid plansg plans for a whole year's activities at school. We put Bay Hi's policies, curriculum, Con- stitution, calendar and other important bits of information into a book which served as a guide to students, called BAY HI WAYS AND MEANS. As we laid plans we put them into action. Painting the supply center, making signs to keep the sophs from getting lost, cleaning the trophy case, all came as a part of pre-school planning. Then the doors swung open wide to greet us and the school year began. We gave out handbooks to the underclassmen fand women, and settled down to a long win- ter's work. We were expected to look into the '55-56 year. Now we look back with a mixture of wonderful memories and wonder how we ever made it. Barbara, Mays, Judy, and Drusie prepare the Student Exchange for another school year. By the time school opens, pencils, paper, and other school supplies will fill the shelves. The entire committee assembles copy for the '55-56 Handbook. agile -istla In , First day of school and students receive their Handbooks.

Television was added in 1955.
