school bank (OFFICE) provides tidbits for information seekers The center of school activity, every- body ' s door step, the telephone office, the place of final decisions, the hunnan encyclopedia, the school bank, the duplicating center — all aptly describe the general office, the busiest center at CHS. A never-ending stream of infor- mation seekers daily pass through the office portals searching for answers or leaving tidbits of information.

uninterrupted day, mutual understanding aim of ADMINISTRATION The uninterrupted day was the im- probable dream for which the admin- istration strove. In his second year, Mr. Galliford emphasized making school life conducive to learning. Innovations included a new program by which seniors could leave school after their classes ended and weekly departmental meetings so that teachers might better solve problems as they arose. Stressing that good discipline results from mutual understanding, Mr. Belton, the new assistant principal, tried to lessen the communications gap while also assuming the task of scheduling.

microfilm magazines— newest acquisition to LIBRARY facilities Microfilm magazines enlivened student interest in past periodicals. The acqui- sition of three microfilm readers and microfilms of magazines through 1 960 was the newest addition to our library. Required research in magazines be- came less of a ' chore to students. Term paper writers soon appreciated Miss Gibb ' s overnight lending system and her term paper schedule to prevent overcrowding. The addition of the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and Woman ' s Wear Daily brought more interested readers to the news- paper stacks, thus finding new ways to serve all.
