To start out the year, the Slide Rule Club was divided into two sections, which alternated meetings each week. Each section elected its own officers. For the first division, Ben Bruderly was elect- ed president, Walter lbele, vice-presi- dentg and Ruth Baltorinic, secretary- treasurer. ln the second division, the election went to Frank Carloss, presi- dent, Tom Williams, vice-president, and Sammae Lockhart, secretary-treasurer. Before many meetings were held, the members decided to have joint meetings once a month as social meetings for the two clubs. As one of their first activities, a Christ- mas party was held on December 13 in the library with records and games pro- viding entertainment. Refreshments were served. Various committees were set up for the party. On the entertainment com- mitte were Marty Brian, chairman, Bob Little, Betty Cibula and Don Chappell. Frank Carloss and Danny Smith made up the refreshment committee, while Harvey Walken, chairman, Duane Yeag- ley, Sara Serbanta, and Joanne Butler were on the clean-up committee. By January, the club was well enough settled, with some members dropping out, that a plan for the combining of the two clubs was formulated. When this plan came into functioning, new officers were elected, the club meeting once every week. The new officers were president, Frank Carloss, vice-president, Walter lbeleg and secretary-treasurer, Ruth Bal- torinic. At some of the meetings, when drill on the use of the slide rule was held, Miss McCready gave prizes to members for correct answers. A constitution was set up for the club at the beginning of the year, this set of laws governing members' actions.

Keepers ef the Books . . . For a jollie goode Booke wheron to looke is better to me than Golde. -John Wilson. A quiet room, flowers on the desk, a POPULAR SCIENCE magazine, a class- mate across the table-and Bill settles down for forty delightful minutes in the library. When he finishes the magazine, a helpful student librarian or Miss Leh- man, who is the school librarian, helps him choose a Howard Pease mystery thriller for a book report. Jane finds the magazines on the rack very interesting for a blue Monday. TIME, HYGEIA, SCHOLASTIC, and many of the forty other magazines sub- scribed to by the library have proved to be valuable aids and supplements to her various assignments. Besides, the cloth- ing teacher wants her to read the new teen-age magazine, SEVENTEEN. Joe comes in for material on Com- pulsory Military Trainingf' He is surpris- ed to find so many magazine articles list- ed in the READERS' GUIDE, and that the student librarian is able to show him how to use it. Bob needs some material for a psy- chology assignment on an outstanding personality. CURRENT BIOGRAPHY, WHO'S WHO and WEBSTER'S BIO- GRAPHICAL DICTIONARY solve his problem. Louise and Betty settle an English class argument over the pronunciation of secretive when Miss Thorp points out that WEBSTER'S INTERNATIONAL DICTIONARY, unabridged, is the best and latest authority. There is little time left until the end of the period, but pupils from the foods class manage to find several games in THE BIG FUN BOOK tfine arts sectionl The bell rings. Bill, Jane, Joe, Bob, Louise and Betty go to their respective classes knowing they can finish their lib- rary assignments another day soon, for they are assigned two library periods per week. Graduating this year are Betty Cibula, Phyllis Cozad and Esther Freet.
