What is the school's best untapped source of better grades and pleasant atmosphere? The answer...the library. Approximately 15,000 volumes filled the shelves in the often obscure building that was located next to the cafeteria. Although the library was full of information that would help any student, not everyone was familiar with it, according to head librarian Lucille Wilson. A lot of students don't know where we are, said Mrs. Wilson when explaining why some students didn't use the library. lt's a different concept from a regular school where the library is in the same building as the class- rooms. tudious Undertaking.

Senior Stephanie Dorman looks for just the right sentence to appropri- ately express an idea she has for her term paper. The library is flocked with students for countless days doing research for their term papers. For those who did know about the school's library, it was a blessing because of the wealth of valuable in- formation that it possessed. In addi- tion to the thousands of books, the library contained newspapers and magazines for those who wished to simply keep up on news events. The library had also purchased a sophisticated computer system that enabled a student to tap into a tremendous amount of information stored in data bases at the Oklahoma Publishing Company. Mrs. Anita Barlow, assistant librarian, and Mrs. Janelle Spencer, secretary, also worked in the library. Twenty-three student aides helped as well. The aides are important because they free the librarians from being constantly interrupted. said Mrs. Barlow. We don't have to jump everytime something comes up. Senior Toni Battles had extra in- centive for being a library aide. I'd like to be a librarian, she said, and I love readingf' illing Forms.

Eastern to the First Baptist Church of Moore. The church decided to use the small, pink brick house on the west side of the school as an outreach ministry to get kids involved in church. The house was used for youth meetings, parties, Monday night Breakaway and scavenger hunts. The Youth House, as it came to be better known, held a more relaxed atmosphere for the youth to meet, stated junior Alisa Davis. Two years ago Tim Duckett began serving lunches at the Youth House to the high school students. Each Tuesday one could buy a cheeseburger, double or single, a canned soft drink, cookies, chips and candy for 51.50 or 552.

Seniors Matt Mosely and Dana Depriest led the students in short devotionals. The Fellowship of Christian Athletes met for their regular Wednesday night meetings at the Youth House after church. Small mishaps such as coke being spilled on youth minister Stan's new jams and the phone ringing in the middle of prayer added amusement to the casual atmosphere. The Youth House, used by many students, teachers and organiza- tions, was a place to go for friend- ship and fun. Saw
