and Special Services during School Hours LIBRARY A loud buzzing followed by a death- like silence, what is it? No, not a iet plane going over, it was just Mr. H. Durbin restor- ing order to our four-walled book shop. Keep- ing order is not the only task ofa good li- brarian. There are other signs of active duty, such as spilled ink, which means the books are being marked and readied for the shelf, the faint jingling of money, being drowned out by the clicking of a typewriter--another overdue book is being returned. These are signs of an active day in the library. MR, HUGH DURBIN BA, Notre Dame DRIVER TRAINING MAI Kent State After a slow start this year, be- Llbmry cause of a delay in receiving the car, the driver training program lumped into full swing. The wild-looking '59 Chevrolet is being wheeled around the streets of Grove City by some equally wild drivers with Mr. G. Edelman, the instructor, at the other half of the dual controls holding on for dear life. One day a week spent in the cdr and a day spent in the classroom combine to train students who wish to learn the proper techniques of driving on today's crowded highways. MR. GILBERT EDELMAP BS, Ohio State Driver Education GUIDANCE physical Guidance at Grove City High covers quite a variety of tasks. Mr. T.

Students Gatn Indwtdually From Special Instruction INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC To play with expression is the goal which Mr. R. Harris attempts to reach with the instru- mental music department. This is accomplished by teaching music appreciation and the correct me- thods of reading music and counting notes. Both individual and group instruction are used. Special emphasis is placed on the value of working to- gether. MR RICHARD HARRIS BS Ohio State Instrumental Music VOCAL MUSIC Vocal music has a definite place in the curriculum at Grove City High School. Miss E. Hamm handles two choruses and , three ensembles. Emphasis is given to the I ioy of singing together--for worship as well as for fun. Her efforts to encourage and to develop good musical tastes have proven successful to many. MISS ELEANOR HAMM AB, Oberlin Vocal Music AGRICULTURE Better farmers is the goal of the agricul- tural department. The boys learn the best ways to raise livestock, to plant various crops, and to test soils. They find out better ways of managing a farm and buying equipment. In the spring Mr. R.
