XYrigI1t, I RAR ST F Who is the Allied general in charge of North African operations? asks the forlorn student. or. What is the Ruml Plan? For such demands. the Library Staff has ex- panded its clipping files to include a War Information Center with specific war folders. The staff members report for duty one period each day, each having his own assigned task to perform. Under the direction of Miss Winton and Mrs. Murdoch. two and a half hours' credit are given to those who fulfill all requirements. Here is one group who are faithfully on the job ten hours a day, helping find reference material and pleasure reading. and offering assistance to students and faculty members alike. R. .T. . RIFLE TE Northwestern's R.O.T.C. Rifle Team is one of the best in Michigan. For years it has consistently ranked among the first ten in Sixth Corps Area Matches. lts primary purpose is to provide a means of improving marksmanship and of sustaining interest in rifle firing. Teamwork and good sportsmanship are also developed. The members of the Team are Richard Wood, Bruce Mayer. Clifford l-lolforty, .lack Taylor. Benjamin Vvlright and Andrew Weeks. Like teams before them. this team has won championships. These boys are lst Regiment Champions and rank fourth in city competition. These honors are won by competition between schools. in the Hearst Trophy Matches. and Sixth Corps Area competition. The boys owe much to the brilliant command of Sgt. Rocco Bonelli. United States Army. Page Twtnty stutn AM

Apple l ole, INFORMATION COUNCIL Last fall, two of the school's hardest working and most valuable organizations were merged into one. with identical officers and the same sponsor. Miss l-ydia E. I-loltman, These are the Information Council and the Service Club. Now. before a student can hope for an assignment at the information desk. he must have served at least one semester learning the rules of the corridors as a guard on hall duty. In addition to the most obvious work of the organization, namely the dispensing of information at the desk. the duties of the Council are varied: selling Northwestern book-covers and stickers. football. track. swimming and basketball tickets. arranging the showcases in the halls. making the IO-B's feel at home when first they arrive here. dispensing general information. and answering countless sane and inane questions. being but a few. IC LU Meetings were held in the auditorium throughout the year. in which good will and co-operation were stressed. At these meetings outstanding members were awarded their hard earned Service Club pins. This year a new system was put into effect whereby deserving members received one hour's credit. The officers were president. C. Butler: vice-president. .lane l.ogan: secretary. Helen Cudmore. Miss l.ydia Holtman is the faculty sponsor and ex-president. Jack Cole is the student counselor. Fall oflicers were president. Jack Cole: vice-president. Jordan Drews: secretary, Pat Butler: recording clerks, J. Blair, H. Cudmore. are, Y. Ifilliiigttni, .I, .lout-N, .I,
