' ff' o 0 Ll Addltlons To Library Increase Its Efflclency it LIBRARY AND SPEECH Need some information on the Italian Rennaissance or on an amoeba or the battle of Bull Run or on the art af making and keeping friends? ls there o book report due soon or an oral re- port to be given? You may need pictures, pamphlets, or in- formation. Our library is the place where all of these and more are to be found. Every year the library grows. Many new books on travel and science have been added to supply information on these subiects to interested students. The latest and most popular newspapers and magazines are also there. Encyclopedia and reference books and a file full of valuable vocational informa- tion are always available for the studious ones. Students from all sections of the school meet in the library, each after a different type of information and they are rarely disappointed. Speech students from beginning courses to senior dramatics find their way to the library. Here, much of the background material and many a speech is written and prepared to be given in class the next day or week. Speech classes, by the way, help a student learn to do more than give a speech. They help him with self-confidence, poise and articulation. Advanced speech classes fdramaticsj add a measure of fun to the sometimes dull routine of the day. Mrs. Adams Moltrnaker Mrs. Giambrone Mrs. Van Aken FACULTY FACTS MRS. VIRGINIA ADAMS, A. B., M.

In a gym class, a student can let go and relax. Whether he is doing push-ups, playing basketball or volleyball, studying first aid, health, or theory of sports, swimming in the pool, running on the track indoors or outdoors, he may take advantage of the gym class opportunities to improve his health and physical skills. Doing calisthenics helps keep Mount Clemens High School students in tip-top shape for the rigors of other classes. Other indoor sports teach them co- ordination of mind and body. ln all cases a sense of good sportsmanship is a desired result. First aid, a needed subiect, is included in the freshman physical education program as is the study of personal health, including body care and good grooming. The sophomores study the theory of sports, both individual and team as well as the whys and wherefores. Since Michigan is a water wonderland, swim- ming is required of all M.C.H.S. gym students. Halth and First Aid are an important part of all girls' gym classes. Here Carol Thoel is putting an arm bandage on Karen Johnson to demonstrate to the class and teacher that she has learned how to do it.

At least that is the hope of Ginny Weissinger as Judy Skarritt begins to spray her hair a beautiful silver grey in preparation for a dramatics presentation. The study halls of Mount Clemens High School are the nice quiet places where the students can go to do their homework. Doing homework in study halls allows students time to engage in extra-curricu- lar activities such as clubs and class meetings. Some students could not have after-school iobs if they were not allowed study hall time. The attendance advisers are always available when o student has a problem that the counselor can help him solve. At the beginning of each se- mester, the attendance advisers help students with schedule changes and sometimes even help them set up a program for their remaining years at Mount Clemens High School. ...ih- Study halls should be a place of quiet for concentration. Here is a scene from one of the four M.C.H.S. study halls which shows the intensity with which students study.
