Winter brought basketball, fumbling, wrestling, apparatus, and volleyball. With the warm spring weather, the activities turned to the out-of doors sports such as softball, baseball, track, and field. Competition also played a large part in the curriculum. While striving for physical fitness, students competed with each other to gain top honors.

Abundant Facilities Provided for Recreational and Research Reading The true value of the library to the student is never fully realized while he is in school. Only when he must work on a term paper or do research for a project does he come to the conclusion that the library is not a social hour room. A helping hand to both the students and Mrs. Herzog were the student librarians. Seated behind the service desk they were willing to aid the student in any way possible. Their duties ranged from finding magazines, giving directions as to the whereabouts of a book, to signing posses. The work may seem easy but it was they, supervised by Mrs. Herzog, that kept the inflow-outflow of the library regular and organized. The work was time consuming but one acquires knowledge of the books available in the library which was useful and will be invaluable later. One also gains an understanding of people obtainable only through direct contact with them. Helpful Quittance in finding just the right beak wot ottered io Greg Peosloy by Mr . Herzog.
