During this first year of teaching the probationary teacher is under special supervision from the college. The supervisor of the intermediate and upper grades is Miss May B. Lambader. The real purpose of this program of supervision is to insure to the beginning teacher a greater degree of success in shorter period of time without the usual attendant discouragements. This supervision may be classroom visitation followed by conference with the teacher in which encourage- ment and helpful suggestions are given for improve- ment, or it may be a demonstration lesson by the supervisor. Many interesting activities have been carried out by the probationary teachers this year. One sixth grade class packed their belongings and went on a Medi- terranean cruise, bringing home souvenirs in the form of soap-carvings. Another activity, a Leisure Time Project, designed to encourage pupils to make worthy use of their leisure time was carried on in a fourth grade. Yet another probationary teacher accompanied her students on a trip to Japan. This activity, in which the contract idea was utilized was carried on in a platoon school by a social science teacher.

Another line party was attended to Tony Sarg's Marionette Show. At the lirst of the year the programs consisted of the works of the American composers. Stories of the biographies of these men were presented by members of the club in conjunction with records of their pro- ductions. All of the programs have been in conjunction with the club's purpose and the girls feel that a great benefit has been derived from them.
