Librar makes many changes Throughout the 1981-82 school year, the library has undergone many changes. Since Tokay's opening five years ago, a second librarian has been added to the staff. Mrs. Gail Evans and new librarian Mrs. Elizabeth Ramsey are in charge of the services. Because of an increase in the budget, the library has obtained new books, and the due dates for books checked out have been prolonged. To better accommodate the needs of the students, books were checked out for three weeks instead of its usual two, said Mrs. Evans. The new system matched the system of the public libraries around the area. A circulation increase also hit Tokay's library according to Mrs. Evans. This year, students used the library facilities more than in previous years. This was due according to Mrs. Evans, to the contribution of new books on the shelves. 4. Surjan and Paula Singh take advantage of the library's quiet at- mosphere to get some homework done. 5. Lounging and taking advantage of the magazine rack are favorite activities in the library.

Students suffer crowded classes On a whole, it has been a pretty good year, reflected Stephen Berkowitz, historyfsocial studies depar- tment chairman as he referred to the ups and downs experienced by students and faculty with the department. On the downside, many students had to suffer with the pains of overcrowding, freshmen in their healthfsafety classrooms and juniors in their U.S. History themes classrooms were packed to capacity. Once again, senior gover- nment students had to con- tend with the outdated Magruder's American Government textbook. Mr. Daniel Mutch resigned from the staff during Christ- mas to pursue a career in in- surance. He was a good teacher and will be missed. Mr. Berkowitz explained. Mr. Mutch was tem- porarily replaced by Mr. Jeff Tracy, a student-teacher from the University of the Pacific. I really look forward to staying on a a permanent staff member, Mr. Tracy revealed. I like the students, and I think this school is the best. 6 4. Mr. Norman Walker lends assistance to junior Bryan Clark. 5.
