Tiny Hankins, circulation manager of the Southerner, and Miss Linda Nlier, business adviser, discuss plans for the first distri- bution of the yearbook. Represented by the band, choral groups, and orchestra, the music depart- ment was perhaps the most active depart- ment in extra-curricular activities. The band frequently played at school convoca- tions and made numerous public appear- ances, as did the choral groups and orchestra. However, public performances were not all the activities in which our music organizations participated. To pro- vide money for band uniforms, choir robes, and orchestra travel fund, the members of these organizations worked outside of class on fund-raising projects. When passing by the art department showcases, one might have seen anything from model houses to ceramics or designs in water colors. Besides learning the vari- ous phases of their work and completing their assignments, art students often helped other departments and organiza- tions with posters and drawings which were used for purposes ranging from ad- vertising school functions to adorning the covers of dance programs. Band members, Michael Hodge, Irma Wertz, and Ron Green, stand ready for inspec- tion in their new band uniforms. 12

Preparing home work was not so gruesome in the pleasant surroundings of our library. Terry Gaiser uses Southside's search for his term paper. 14 During Southside's first year in operation, Mrs. Cynthia Marshall was in charge of the library. Other library workers have been stu- dent helpers or practice students from Ball State. Well equipped, considering the short time of its operation, the library contains 27 sets of books for English classes, and 4800 books Cfic- tion and non-fictionj for regular distribution. In addition, the reference section includes sets of encyclopedias, various dictionaries, Reader's Guide to Periodicals, Stateman's Yearbook, World Almanac, Atlas, Album of American His- tory, and college guides and catalogs for stu- dents interested in further education. The audio-visual department has available many filmstrips for use in classes, and the magazine section is equipped with material for practically every course taught in our school, as well as subject matter on various student interests.
