Student ldemdau Student Librarians are in charge of the li- brary in their study periods. Their work is purely voluntary. In the course of their job they help many students, both grade and high school. These students appreciate the time and help given to them by the librari- ans. The student librarians this year visited the New Castle public library, the high school library, a grade school library, and later a bookmobile. The librarians pic- tured above from Left to Right are: Larry Reece, Peggy Meredith, Betty Simmons, Nancy Williams, Jerry Pflaummer, Judith Wood, Joyce Storie, Dana Harding, and SEATED is Mary Lou Chance. wd6f78d-C4014 Cadet teachers are of great assistance to the faculty.

S440 7ouonea The nine shop foremen with Mr. Ellis are Leonard Williams, Manesseh Gillam, Jack O'Malley, Mike Jolmson, Jerry McNew, Don Jackson, Tom Armstrong, and Phil Frazier. The position as student shop fore- men has a three -fold purpose. It increases the knowledge of shop, it shows the stu- dent the occupational possibilities in in- industrial arts, such as teaching it, it also serves as an aid to the instructor. To be- come a foreman, the boy must pass a foreman test, must be a junior or a senior, and must have a B average in the shop program. Among the many tasks he must perform are grading and checking the students with the supervision of the teacher preparing and giving tests, and helping the teacher with the final grading. Being a foreman applies to his chance of winning the industrial award.
