CFFICE HELP L. to R.: R. Komnlainen, P. Blaquiere, B. Roderick, I. Rasmussen, K. Curtis Collecting absentee slips is just one of the many services provided by office help. Students who have a free period are qualified to work as office help. Not only do these students help in the office, but they are also provided with an oppor- tunity to see what occurs in the office during school hours. 113

LIBRARIANS Dedicated to the serving of Oxford Hills students and faculty members, the library contains approxi- mately seven thousand books. Mr. johnson, our head librarian, and Mrs. Harter, his assistant, are aided by eighteen student librarians. The library is rich not only in book resources, but also in periodi- cals. There are currently eighty-nine periodicals to which the library subscribes. A new microfilm reader is already seeing much use, and the back issues of thirty-two magazines are now represented in our files on microfilm. Student librarians aid in all phases of library work, both before and behind the scenes. They have not only the opportunity of helping the school, but also furthering their own knowledge through an understanding and appreciation of both libraries and books. 112

Officers A Downing C Hill D Dullea, Mr. Hacker, Advisor. The purpose of this organization is to promote safety within the jurisdiction of the school. Al- though it is primarily concerned with regulating traflic in the school parking areas, the Safety Coun- cil is also interested in preventing accidents in such school sponsored recreations as archery and rifle practice. Periodically changing the material on its bulletin board to accommodate the various seasonal activities, this industrious body of students, com- prised of representatives from each class, attempts to keep the school aware of potential hazards. Past projects have included road rallies, safety assem.- blies, and trips to the state police barracks. Future projects envision traflic court, a dance, and hope- fully, a system in the new school that will provide each student and the faculty drivers with his own parking space. This year the council has registered all cars parked on school property and prosecutes violators of the traflic rules. Ano-ther of their duties is to sand the walks in winter since icy pavements often prove dangerous. The Safety Council does not, however, involve itself in work alone - color movies are shown stressing the importance of driv- ing carefully. Thus the object of this staff can be summed up in the following manner - enjoy school life while promoting safety. 114
