MllVllWlS'l'l'lATlUN Friends of the Radio Audience: This is Station PTHS bring- ing to you by means of its television system a survey' ol the work of the various de- partments which make up Proviso Township high school. Your announcer is Ruth Stilesg the scriptwriter is Elvira Fleck. Superintendent lfarl R. Sifert. whom we present hrst in this broadcast. is the head of thc administrative depart- ment of the school. He is ably assisted by' C. C. Taggart. who contacts the grade schools on behalf of the high sehool. su- pervises the making of pro- grams. and in a hundred ways renders himself indispensable. Miss Mary Carroll. as registrar. and Miss Martha Smith. secretary to the superintendent. attend to the multitudes of clerical duties ineyitable in a large institution. They have a corps of aides. The counselor group plays an increasingly' important part in the life of Proviso. You see here Miss Elizabeth B. Oakes. counselor for junior and senior girls. and john W. Hinds. counselor for boys of the same classes. They' are engaged in helping students who want to go to college arrange their pro' grams to that end. This is only one of their many functions, which include an endless variety' of social, educational., per- sonal. and clerical responsibilities. Individual interviews with many pupils is an integral part of their routine. Miss Ruth Beck and Otto llillner look after the well-being of the sophomores. Croup counseling is an important feature of their work. ln each session. one half hour is given to study' or to committee work: the other half. to group discussion. Participation by' as many students as possible under the leadership of the group president or an especially' chosen chairman is emphasized in all actiyities. The aims of the freshman counseling groups. with Miss Virginia Hayward and H. IC. Carr in charge. are to adjust freshmen to their new enyironment and to offer them oppor- tunities for individual development. This year. for the first time since the counseling system was established in Proviso. a freshman advisory board was organized composed of the chairmen from the yarious groups. lts purpose is to proyide leadership for group discussions. its a special project. 'the girls' groups made scrapbooks for distribution in Hines hos- pital during Christmas vacation. To provide an opportunity to participate in social life. both boys' and girls' groups held a series of parties. t'0l NSIGLOIGS t'l,lfIlllt',Kl. S'I'AI4'l4' l-llizaheth ll. Oakes. A. WI.
