X-X e N F I ry Mrs. Dorothy Jenner, Nurse. Mrs. June McNivin, Nurse. There is a room in the east building and a room in the west building which every student eventually visits during the year. These are the health offices. Mrs, Jenner, the east building nurse and Mrs. McNivin, the west building nurse, team up to keep students and faculty in good health. These ladies check our eyes, to make sure wc can see the board, check our ears, to make sure we can hear the teacher, issue gym excuses so we can study for that history test, and give a clean bill of health to athletes so no one faints at prac- tice. It's no wonder, Mrs. Jenner and Mrs. Nivin are so popular.

On October 5 the renovated learning center opened its doors no smdenu for the first time this fall. The area was far from complete, but the organization had proceeded to such a point that smdenrs were able to use the facilities, or most of them. The two year planning stage became an active renovation as soon as the last student had been fed in June. The cramped uarters of the previousl book-oriented library were expanded to include the cafetria, thellritchen and the senior thning room. In order to fai- cilitare subject orientation. the previous library became the Language Art: Center, the cafeteria is now the Main reading room and the kitchen and senior dining room are now the History Center. Used, were the basic resources of both the junior and senior high libraries in the planning. Tables, chairs, shelving and charging desks were consolidated, and the basic renovations centered around the newer concept of multi-media, the inclusion of non-print as well A print materials for student use. Fifty-seven study carrels now complement the tables, and all are equipped with lights and electrical outlets, These enable a student to use a record player, a filmstrip viewer or tape recorder as his msignment requires. There are two conference rooms for student useg they are adjacent to each and can be used as two units or M one large unit. A machine room is also a new addition of serviceg the 3M copier, a ditto machine and eventually a micro-film reader-printer, calculator, thermofax and portapunches will complete the inventory of machinery. XVith the help of the guidance department, we hope to develop a guidance area for students containing college catalogs. reference materials on colleges and universities, and vocational guidance materials. The learning center is equipped better then it ever has been before, leaving its success without question. M. nn I l-it Mrs. Jeanette Wilson, Assistant Librarian.

Physical Education The Physical Education Department, at Guilderland, wages a constant Battle of the Bulge. The main obicctive of this capable staff is to keep our student body physically fir. To accomplish this end, the gym teachers offer a variety of activities during the year. Everyone participates in soccer, football, volleyball, basketball, gymnmics, tennis, softball, and track. Variations include field hockey for the girls and wrestling for the boys. Intramurals are offered in most sports for those who are more arhletically inclined. Basketball seems to be a popular intramural sport, M the boys have a tournament and the girls have several pIaydays with other schools. The Guilderlnnd gym program is successful due to dedicated teachers and a variety of activities provided. ps Mr. Herman XYyl.l, Varsity XY'rcstling Mrs. Sylvia Tlicrriault, Girl's Bowling, CONN Intr.imur.tls, ,l.V.
