But even this favorite pastime does not stop other students from studying, reading, and checking out books. bookish place is our library Knowledge can only be obtained by study, and Greenwood's library is the perfect place to do this. Not only are reference books available to students at all times, but so are the many enioyable books and magazines. This past year, many new books were added to the library to widen the students' knowl- edge and enioyment. Under the supervision of Mr. Scar- borough, the library is a quiet place to study, as well as a pleasant one in which students are always welcome. J. RAY SCARBOROUGH, Librarian, received his B.S. in Education from SMS and his A.M. from Missouri University. Keeping the Library up to date is one of his yearly duties. Nedda White finds that the use of the reference cards in the library saves her time as she gathers ma- terial for her report.
