Mr. Albert Whitney Adelphi, N.Y.U Athletics Co-ordinator You just can't cheer on the field while the boll’s in ploy. “ARTISTS” ARE FOUND One-two, one-two, and our able gym faculty developed Schreiber boys into better athletes and ovid sports enthusiasts. It was here that the physical fitness program was run ragged, as Port boys suffered the tortures of the Spartan (or should we say Viking?) in training for the rigors of life Football, basketball, baseball, track, and other sports occupied our athletes, while gym teachers kept a watchful eye out for potential team players. Schreiber girls returned to school this year to find that their gym teachers had been infected with what doctors call calisthenics mania. Those leg lifts, jumping jacks, and sit-ups spread the charlie-horse fever, yet it was these very things which aptly prepared the girls for maximum efficiency in such seasonal sports as hockey, archery, volleyball, basket- ball, and softball. Boys start off gym in the usual way—with a backoche Miss Warble joins her graceful volleyballers for on exciting game. Miss F. Leora Warble Ball Stote Teachers College G.A.A.

Mr. George Christopher Illinois Wesleyan Keep those cornets up. Mr. Harold Doughty Pot$dom, Queens College Senior Closs Advisor 'Altos, that wos VERY interesting. Mr. Richard Rusack Potsdam, Indiana University Oh! Those good old army days.' COURSES WHERE A Doughty a doy keeps the gloteral stroke oway. Well known throughout the community for their melodious sounds, Schreiber's music deportment has been a source of much enjoyment and pride. The band, orchestra, and chorus, directed by Messrs. Christopher, Rusack, and Doughty, re- spectively, gave separate concerts during the year, and com- bined harmoniously for the annual Christmas concert. They also provided the vocal and orchestral backgrounds for the fall musical, performed in the Memorial Day parade, and recorded concerts for presentation over NBC radio. Our music department is one which has earned its fine reputation for high quality performances in competition, and is a valuable contribution to Schreiber's extra-curricular life Who would have thought that we would be given the oppor- tunity to gaze at the work of future Van Goghs and Rembrandts while eating our lunch! No one but Miss Rooney and her industrious art classes. We also owe them thanks for many beautiful showcases around our halls and for lovely holiday decorations Our art classes certainly made our high school a more beautfiul place to live and work in.

LIBRARIANS OPEN DOORS TO LEARNING Mrs. Kent ond Mrs. Begenou select new book titles for the llbrorv's shelves. MRS. E. BEGENAU MRS. M. KENT Library facilities were used more this year than ever before. This was mainly due to the fact that teachers emphasized library-oriented assignments and gave outside readings in overnight books. In addition to required readings, the library offered a wealth of other books which were geared to student needs and interests. We can all thank Mrs. Begenau and Mrs. Kent for having made our lives a little easier this year.
