Sorting library pass cards, library page Iona Craig, jr., and Mrs. Marshall, supervisor, meet the challenge of keeping the library running smoothly. Librar provides place for research and relaxation Mrs. Marilyn Carey Mrs. Cynthia Marshall Hjust a library? No-we urge stu- dents to think of it as a center for in- structional materials, for we have more to offer than books alonefi These words expressed the thoughts of Mrs. Marshall, as she and Mrs. Carey, along with the clerical aid of Mrs. Atkins, worked to improve the library to accommodate increased student use. Most obvious additions were the art objects such as uVenus de Milow and i'The Thinkerf' One thousand books were also added, bringing the total to over 11,000 The library took on a classroom atmosphere when the narcotics and team-taught history classes met there for research work. The Audio-Visual Department made available many hours of mov- ies for classroom and home viewing, Student aids assisted in library tasks, and for the Hrst time ai student teach- er was trained in library work.

Fine arts students Work together and individuall XVlien a variety of high school stu- dents combined their musical talents under the direction of Mr. Boyer and Mr. Dwiggins, they stopped thinking as soloists and contributed to a group to transform it from a group into a productive unit. This unit could be Concert Choir or Clee Club. It could be one of the in- strumental groups: band, orchestra, dance band, or pep band. No matter which group, the harmony did not arrive magically, but only through concentrated effort of at least an hour a day, Art students worked individually to express their emotions visually. They were taught the concept that originality can thrive without break- 'A ing the basic standards that are neces- sary for good craftsmanship. From beginning art courses to jew- elry. pottery, sculpture. and graphics, ' t the Southside student was offered a wide variety of choice. As the band pauses in its marching practice for i a moment. drummer Cary Bolton, soph.. turns j to see or hear something interesting. As a part of her participation in the Enrichment Program sponsored by Ball State University, Bobbie Morris, jr., learns by practice to paint with water colors. Linda Branson, jr., and Yasmin Crawford, jr. members of thc Girls' Clee Club, watch atten tively for Mr. Boyer's signal to begin singing. 33
