The Student Council initiated the system of Marshalls in order to maintain dis- cipline in the hallways during the passing of classes. At assemblies they act as ushers to help seat the various classes quickly and without confusion. Their first year has been a successful one and they have rendered a great service to Onteora.

JUNIOR AFFRENTICES of the ALBUM Onteora's first yearbook, the Album , was compiled by a capable, hard-working staff comprised of Senior and Junior class members under the supervision of Mr. Bernard Stahl, Miss Maureen Davis, and Mrs. Katherine Wagenfohr. In order to maintain an experienced staff for each year, a system was established whereby a group of Junior appren- tices was chosen by their class and approved by the faculty advisors. By working with the Senior staff these students gained valuable experience in the production of the book and will therefore be fully prepared for the job next year. Several visits to the publishing plant allowed the staff to see the actual processing of their book.
