Harmony between the individual and his unique role in school affairs was a main concern of Miss Gene Criley, Mr. Harold Gersh, Mr. Philip Larson, and Mrs. Vinita Stevens in handling pupils' indecision in class schedules. Each counselor administered one of the stand- ardized tests which detected aptitudes in learning and determined inclinations toward college life.

The Parent-Teachers Association met to combine ideas from all phases of high school learning to form a more efficient system of educational communication. To recruit members and introduce parents to their children's source of education, the PTA held its annual Back-to-School night. On Octo- ber 23 more than three thousand persons at- tended the third consecutive college clinic. Re- presentatives from over seventy universities and colleges assembled to explain requirements of higher education. The February career clinic gave students guidance in choosing an appro- priate profession. The topic of discussion at the April meeting was college drop-outs. While acquainting parents with the admin- istration, the Parent-Teachers Association pro- vided adults with a more lucid understanding of relationships between youth and faculty.
