Library gets cessettesg LHS gets new course Seven cassette players and two recorders were added to the library along with a library of pre-recorded tapes in order to better study habits. Sev- eral classes around the school used the players for grading purposes and learning devices. Students could bring their own tapes and use the players during free periods and even check out the machines. Mrs. Burgess and Mrs. Young were always on hand to help in- dividuals and groups. Two stu- dent aides per period also helped check out books and straighten shelves. Health Occupations was the new course at LHS. It was taught in a two hour block period by Mrs. Elizabeth Sullivan, registered nurse. Students learned how to take temperatures and blood pres- sures, and then found part-time jobs as aides at doctor offices, hospitals, and the Mental Health Clinic, and at a mortuary. Mrs. Vivian Young--asst. librar- ian--keeps up her books. Librarian Della Jean Burgess explains the use of cassettes to Peggy Woodward Mrs. Sullivan talks to the class about mental health. ,E s Mff
