CHANGES IN OUR SCHOOL CONTINOED With our new gymnasium the baseball players were able to begin an earlier workout. A bit of basketball was possible for boys in grades 4, 5 and 6. This was done with the hope of preparing them to become better players later. Among many of our changes, was an increase in the faculty. We found many new faces on the faculty when school opened last fall, and we have found them all most cooperative. In summing up our new building and the many changes which have helped to clear many problems, we have not forgotten the taxpayers and everyone who made this possible. The students are very thankful for all that has been done to do away with the old inconveniences, and to replace them with newer and more modern facilities. |c lit I Northern New York s Newest and Most Modern Theater Compliments of RCKY THEATER Potsdam, New York AIR CONDITIONED THROUGHOUT FOR YOUR HEALTH AND COMFORT 4,1' , ALTERATIONS PRESSING ALFRED DUNBAR 17 1 2 Main Street Over Western Auto Store DRY CLEANING POTSDAM, NEW YORK SAM KAPLAN DEPARTMENT STORE Clothing) Furnishings.

CHANGES IN OUR SCHOOL The students and faculty of the grades 7-12 entered the new addition to the Parishville building on September 4. It was a big moment for us—one which we had all been looking forward to for some time. There were several differences from the old building. No more going to the town hall downtown for cafeteria, gym classes, assemblies, and ball practice. Instead, we are equipped with a fine and very convenient cafeteria, a very fine gymnasium, which accommodates a large crowd ax ball games, and is also a fine auditorium for our assemblies and other school activities. There is no more having to go without showers after gym clashes or a ball game, for we have been provided with locker rooms and showers. There is a great deal more room in the halls in which to move to and from classes with considerable more ease; the classroom space is also larger as well as more convenient. One room in particular is enlarged—that being the library. Not only is this room larger as far as space is concerned but the activities of the library and its circulation of books have also been increased. All books are now kept in the library instead of in the grade rooms. Books are also sent regularly to outside schools. Miss Bloomfield has been giving book talks this year in the grades. Included as an activity of the library during the year was the showing of films to the public. They were very well received by a large, appreciative audience. These movies were obtained from the Regional Library Service Center in Watertown, January 6 Second World War Our homemaking and agricultural departments have been increased in facilities. They are very well equipped with many modem conveniences. There is now no more opportunity for one to get out of study hall to take notices around, since Mr. Corbin now has a P. A. system on which he broadcasts from his own Inner Sanfetum.” Because of many changes brought on by our new building, there has also been a difference in the extra-curricular activities. The seniors were given permission to conduct the sale of candy during lunch hours, after school, and at ball games. The school had two plays this year in its new auditorium. Both the Juniors and seniors presented a play. February 1? March 15 April 16 Atomic Energy World Life India
