library club . . . As a special project, fourteen Library club students under the direction of Mrs. Hilda Catron presented A Typi- cal Day in the Library at the PTA meeting held November 23, in the high school library. Students who assisted by ushering and working at the charging-out desk included Mary Brodersen, JoAnn Heldt, Shirley Christensen, Gertrude Reichert, Judy Kregness, Bar- bara XYhiteing, Marilyn Wfingrove, Susan Spieker, Mary Jo Siemer, Jo Ann Schroeder, Joyce Blankenbaker, Bernice Hal- terman, and Ann McKeighan. Following the business of the PTA meeting, Mrs. Catron requested that in order to make the program a success, par- ents and teachers should turn back the clock to their high school days. The program was divided into three minute sessions. Students Louise Jewell, R. M. Vtfatson, and K. B. Koch did such typical things as attempting to locate notes for a speech in a blue book without knowing the title and author, checking out a magazine, and preparing a speech on con- servation. Teachers who acted as study hall supervisors during the three periods were Mrs. Edwin Coen, Miss Anna Marie Schneller, and Miss Esther Oppedahl. Members of the Library Club and Mrs. Catron, librarian, are trying to work together to make the the library a service agency, a teaching agency, a materials' center, and a reading center. Service is given to both teachers and pupils by check- ing books in and out, and seeking information for those who need help in locating materials. 77 ,fr Fjrst Row: Left to right-Phyllis Whited, Karen Kay Hansen, Karen Lee Hansen, Jo Ann Heldt, Mrs. Hilda Catron, Nancy Retman, Janice Neu- mann, Jo Ann Shields.

pep club . . . llli work of the Pep Club was reflected in the enthu- siasm shovvn through out the football and basketball seasons. School spirit is put to a severe test when a team has a losing season, and this year the club did a fine job of keeping up team morale. This was accomplished largely by increased student attendance and enthusiasm at games. The Pep Club was instrumental in obtaining buses to take students to these out-of-town contests. In past years, this has not been a common practice, but this year it has proved quite successful. The annual Pep Club picnic was held early in the fall. Spirits undampened by rain, they gathered in the shelter- house, and, after they'd had their fill of hot dogs and ice cream, the members chose the new officers for the coming year. Frank Holland was elected as president, Sally John- son as vice-president, and Janice Hinz as secretary-treasurer. The organization was under the able sponsorship of Miss Margaret Green, girls' gym instructor. Miss Shirley Smith, typing and shorthand teacher, was named co-sponsor. Homecoming week found the pepsters busy selling home- coming pins, planning skits, making arrangements for the traditional Snake dance, and organizing the hour long pep meeting. llecause they felt the club should be more democratic, twenty-three new members were voted in, raising the mem- bership from twenty-seven to fifty. The purpose of the Pep Club is to support the team and to arouse school spirit, not to provide a social organization with parties and dances for its members. Keeping this in mind, the members are attempting to remold their club into one which effectively fulfills this purpose.
