n. t. guard Martha Reilly, assistant girls' head Blake Rambach, boys' head In R Mr. Spreitzer, sponsor 70 The New Trier Guard at West established itself last year. When sponsors Mr. Jim Spreitzer and Mr. Dick Becker organized this service club, they spent most of the time training guards to be good swimming teachers, giving them lesson plans for Saturday classes and advice on teaching techniques. The results were impressive: long lists of North Shore children waiting to fill vacancies in the Satur- day swimm-ing classes. The swim school expanded with a summer program. There, the teaching plans were revised and improved to prepare the guards for the fall classes once again. This year, Guard not only continued its year-old tradition of service to the community, they emerged as one of the major organizations within the school. The Guard members' loyalty and spirit helped them to produce a tremendous and worthwhile effort by win- ning first place honors in the Dad's Day float parade. They also raised money by holding bake sales to sponsor car rallies and to help pay for the swimming team awards banquet. Guard members provided the nucleus for sup- porters of the swimming team, and girls on the Guard timed at all of the home meets. They acquired some- thing which is unusual for a service organization to have-class.

student tutors Student Tutoring is a service in demand. lt is work from which everyone can benefit. Tutees appreciate the different teaching approaches tutors offer and the more relaxed atmosphere. Ironi- cally, tutors often learned more than their tutees while reviewing material they had to teach. As sponsor Miss Betty Keoughan explained You don't really un- derstand something unless you can explain it to someone else.
