Miss Hollister ' s stapler gets a good workout from behind-the- scenes workers like Nancy Carter. Kathy Brunner and Babs Slatcher find that putting away choir robes is a tedious job that must be done. Cooperation Is Basic to Shaker Success Polly Ham and Mike Hays take advantage of Honor Study Hall library privileges. Perhaps the most significant development of the 1957-58 year was a result of the two previously mentioned elements: a large student body and a greater than ever emphasis on in- dividuality. This development was the cooperation which made school enjoyable rather than just endurable. Cooper- ation is a vital factor to human relationships. When we an- alyze it, we see that it is responsible not only for our peace of mind, but also for most of our accomplishments. Fortunately, this year cooperation existed at Shaker in abundance; it could be found everywhere: athletic teams that employed team spirit in competition, cheerleaders who sparked Shaker ' s enthusiasm, dramatic and musical groups that strove to put forth their very best work, committees and councils which accomplished everything from revamping the Honor Study Hall program to cleaning up after school dances, and all sorts of people who contributed their time and talents to every activity under the Shaker sun. Responsibility was dished out in big doses to the many who were willing to ac- cept it. In general, every person worked with every other person to overcome any handicaps imposed by our increased size and to make this school year the best possible. Here, then, are the results and, more important, the people responsible for the results — faces in the crowd. 10
