tapid Reading Initiated In spite of a lack of workable equipment and space, he Rapid Reading Club and the early hour reading :lass began their first year at LHS. Their purpose was o improve the reading efficiency of the members hrough increased speed and comprehension using read- ng machines and pacing devices. Members could work any evening after school. Their vork was done on an individual basis because of the Jifforent reading rates of the students. Plans for moving into the audio-visual room in the new ibrary were made and should make the club more active n the future. A great deal of student interest was shown in the reading facilities offered at LHS. The library and the roading room could be found being used by students at almost any hour of the school day. Both of these facil- ities were aids to the student developement that contrib- uted to the educational atmosphere at LHS. Morilyn Brooks, head of the Rapid Reading Club, discusses the program with students. Martha Oldham and assistant Marian Boyle were in chargo of tho thousands of books in the Lawrence library and estimated better than 5.000 books wero chocked through tho main desk. Next year, tho library will bo moved to a new facility which will bo completely air-conditioned.
