Library Club Utilizes Dewey Decimal System Functioning as an indispensable facet of Miami Nor- land is its library. However, the library would not be able to perform so efficiently Without the aid of a hard- working organization, the Library Club. The Library Club was created to assure the library of an industrious, well-qualified staff. This organization is open to any student with an acceptable academic average and a genuine desire to serve the school. The club assists the librarians in all facets of opera- tion. The assistants work throughout the school day checking and stamping books and performing varied miscellaneous tasks.

thce Aids Perform Indispensable Tasks Hidden in the frenzied activity of a typical school day is a group of students who perform a requisite task. The otfhce workers act as indispensable assistants to the secretaries in each of the three oHices of the school. These students devote one period each day to work in the oHices. Workers in the main ofTice, who must main- tain a B academic and a high conduct average, operate the switchboard, run errands, file papers, and perform other necessary tasks. Assistants in the Guidance Office answer the telephone, alphabetize names, sort papers, and generally assist the guidance secretary. They issue and arrange college folders, pamphlets, and career in- formation in correct order. Students in the administra- tion department help compile absentee data. This is accomplished by collecting absences from classrooms, listing and alphabetizing the names according to grade, and sending each person a postcard or calling them by telephone to ascertain the cause of absence. Since these assistants are in contact with the general public, they must have a neat appearance, a courteous manner, and the ability to get along with others. MAIN OFFICE ASSISTANTSeBoMom Row: F.

Encourages Fitness And Character Dedicated to the ideal that physical activities should not be restrictive, the members of the Girls, Athletic Association strive to represent Norland with outstand- ing athletic teams. The girls, already proficient in many sports, strive to improve their own abilities while creat- ing further interest in feminine participation in ath- letics. The sole requirement of this organization is an interest in sports activities. Among the teams the G.A.A. sponsors are volleyball, basketball, softball and bad- minton. In addition to this major project the Association initiated several other activities this year. In the fall, the club sponsored the Sports Day program and the sale of beat tags for a football game. The members volunteered to assist the junior high schools as referees for their sports events, and a bake sale to raise funds for athletic equipment was conducted. The highlight of the year was the Mother and Daughter Banquet on May 25, at which time awards and letters were given to active participants and the new officers were installed for the coming year. , .. , -' v . , .
