Mr. George Morris, the conductor, will soon enter upon his seventeenth year as instrumental music director in Richmond. Before coming to Richmond, Mr. Morris studied conducting in Chicago and Europe, and specialized in the clarinet, oboe, and French horn. GIRL RESERVE OFFICERS: FORUM OFFICERS: B. Dornan, V.

Garr: ITH AN unusual number of club reporters making up the larger part of the staff, the journalism classes have issued 16 editions of the Hi-Nus this semester. Miss Frances Bradley, new journalism instructor, made several improve- ments on the paper. A new headline style was followed, and various new types of makeup were introduced. The publication date was changed to Friday in order to lessen the pressure on the print shop and journalism classes. Carol Hunt proved a competent editor, guiding the work of her staff of reporters. Catherine Craig worked efficiently as business manager. On October 31 representatives of the Shield and Hi-Nus staffs attended the Central California Scholastic Press Association Convention at Stanford Uni- versity. They submitted the Hi-Nus and Shield for criticism. With this issue of the Shield, the journalism class of 2-12’s leaves Room 72 to the “cubs” fe eling their work well done. Library Girls KiAc PERIOD of the day a “library girl” is in the library ready to help students find material and books, and to check student attendance.

Library girls for the term were Jane Johnson, president; Elsie Johnsen, vice- president; Mildred Walker, secretary; Ermenia Casazza, social chairman.
