GUID NCE DIRECTOR A modern blond-paneled office was the setting this year for each student's annual conference with Miss Margaret Barclay, Director of Guidance. Besides these personal interviews, Miss Barclay keeps seniors posted on class rank and scholarships, reminds them of testing dates, and arranges for speakers from various colleges and vocations. As super- visor of the school's testing program, she administers intelligence and the Iowa Development tests and is often asked to interpret results. Mothers of all students are invited to tea each year to meet the faculty and members of the administration Miss Barclay and Mrs Olga Kneram of the Homemakmg Department were in charge of the arrangements for the two November affairs this year Have troubles?
