LIBRARIANS ' T ' HIS year the library lias again made delinile strides towards perfection under the capable sponsorship of Mr. George Rahn. To facilitate the carrying out of duties In the library, Mr. Rahn called for assistants at the beginning of the semester. Ruth De John, Helen Mitchell. Hazel Reynolds. Rosanna Musgrove. Marjorie Cobb. Pauline Smersk. Edward Inman. George Crouch, and Norman Arthurs applied and now fill these responsible positions. Mr. Rahn then devised a successful plan of operation to obtain the aid of the students in decreasing congestion in the library. The duties of his assistants are to stamp weekly and over-night books, to renew over-night and weekly books, and to clip articles from newspapers. In addition to this, they take care of books on reserve. Among their other duties they stand at the doors checking the books taken out of the library and take care of the desk. Each person gets an opportunity at these various positions. A noticeable result of the efforts put forth to interest the students in the library is the increased reading of all types of books. A vote of sincere appreciation is therefore justly due Mr. Rahn and his assistants. «L.-« ' CHEERLEADERS IVrO football game would be complete without well-organized cheers. No well- - ' - organized cheers would be possible without the able guidance of the cheer- leaders. This year ' s cheerleaders were under the direction of Mr. Kessler. former head cheerleader of McKees Rocks High School. They consisted of hve seniors- Betty Lychkoff. Maude Kuiming, Mary Elizabeth Beck, Vera Radoycis, and William Quillan: three juniors— Eleanor Sirden. Wallace Miller, and William Caramela: and two sophomores— Sylvia Roscoe. and Olga Radoycis. In all, there were three boys and seven girls. Head cheerleader this year was Betty Lychkoff. As usual, all dressed In the traditional blue and white. The girls, this year, intro- duced a new cheer known as the X ' arslty Yell.

H Beat When spirits were at low ebb. a few ords from the cheerleaders soon brought them soaring up again. Now let ' s tear the root off was the familiar cry of the cheerleaders. We never quite managed to tear it off. but I ' ll bet it ' s shaking yet. Page Sixty-nine
