Checking out books was always a pleasure at MHS when students were aided by these ef- ficient Library Club officers: Donna Bumpass, Secretary; Shannon Stevenson, Vice-President; and Pat Smith, President. Books are life's greatest treasures and this axiom is certainly a truth at MHS. Daily students used the library for research and enjoyment. Always on hand were our librarians, ready to assist in making book selections. The MHS library was not all dull and dusty shelves of books. Members of the Li- brary Club did a superb job of creating a gay and friendly atmosphere for read- ing and study with bright posters, bul- letin boards, and displays to encourage better reading habits and library man- ners. A World of Literature Through Library First Row: P. Smith, J. A. Jones, B. Page, C. Page, D. Bumpass, T. Savage, S. Stevenson; Second Row: Mildred Holland, Sponsor; C. Jester, J. Jones, B.

Lay-out, typing, proofreading, and pasting-up all were ingredients that produced the 1964 Wild- cat. The staff included.

Business Manager; Carmen Leerstang, Class Editor; Johnnie Bates, Asst. Class Editor. Wildcat Staff Produced the Biggest One Yet! Making 1963-64 a never-to-be-for- gotten year for M.H.S. students was the objective of the 10-member Wildcat staff. In addition to spending many hours after school completing each page of the 110-page book, the staff promoted Wildcat sales, sold advertising to local merchants, and sponsored the Wildcat King and Queen contest. With each person doing his specific job and with the help of Jim Landt, advisor, the staff put out the largest yearbook ever published at M.H.S. Yearbook Business Manager Gary Bane sold over $1,000 of yearbook advertising. Bookkeeping was quite a chore for Editor Sue Wilson as the monev rolled in for the Wildcat account.
