Librar y Club Files, fines organized bookroom If you had trouble finding that one special book in the library, you dis- covered how important those trusty stu- dent-librarians and Mrs. Dodds, head librarian, really were. Their major task was getting the entire student body oriented in the new facility. Maintaining the bookshelves, card catalogue, and magazines, plus collecting those annoy- ing book fines, were daily activities of the 19 librarians. The vertical file was the expansion project of the club. Members asked all teachers to bring in magazines so they could cut out major articles pertaining to the categories in the file. Some members volunteered for extra duties such as arranging bulletin boards in the library and participating in a story hour at the Hartford City Public Library on Saturdays. Local children heard readings of their favorite stories. Building mental castles during library story hour is Cathy O ' Hern.

Coo perative O f fice Education 8 prepared for office positions Have you ever met that certain person who constantly has money in his pocket? If so, it may have been one of those hardworking COE ' ers. Eight seniors participated in the Co- operative Office Education program which prepared them for initial employ- ment in business and office occupations through class instruction and on-the-job training. The students work regularly a minimum of 15 hours a week. The COE Club was an extracurricular activity for those students in the pro- gram who were forced to miss participa- tion in other activities because of their jobs. These energetic students attended classes in the morning and departed for their respective stations in the afternoon. Mr. Thomas Hale, sponsor, and three members attended the State Coopera- tive Education Association meeting at New Haven High School, Oct. 15. Those attending learned more about their state affiliation. Many participants in the program continued their work throughout the summer months.
