LIBRARY LIBRARY PERSONNEL Seated: Mrs. Timmons. Standing: Vivian Ball. Pat Bailey. Anna Brc. kmridge. Patsy Graham. Mary Ann Fluke. Carol Lowery. At the beginning of the year six library assistants were chosen. Each was expected to help students find books, check books and magazines in and out, and collect fines. We were also assigned individual duties. Vivian Ball—Take care of shelves A through E and take care of overdues. Pat Bailey—Shelves F - M. Mend books. Mary Ann Fluke—Shelves N - Z. Search for lost books. Type filing cards. Patsy Graham—Shelves 100 - 700. File catalog cards. Keep shelves free of old magazines. Anna Breckenridge—Shelves 800 — 919. Write call numbers. Carol Lowery—Type catalog cards and book cards. Each day as we went into the library we looked in the desk to see if Mrs. Timmons had left a message which we quite often found. It usually instructed us to find a missing book or maybe cards. Sometimes we librarians left notes for each other concerning the library. During the year we have tried to stencil call numbers on each book. We have in- ventoried the library and added new books. Our special project has been a pamphlet file of material on different occupations. We hope the students were as satisfied with our work as we were in doing it. 2?

JUNIOR-SENIOR PROM OUI! OUI! Again, the Valley Senior High School gymnasium was the scene of the annual junior-senior banquet and prom May, 1952. A very oo la la French theme was elegantly carried out in colors of yellow and blue. I he front of the stage was bedecked by paper napkins. Blue ones spelling out OUI-OUI” and white ones providing a beautiful background. A small model of Pierre”, a French painter, adorned each table. A small velvet covered menu and program written entirely in French was found at each plate. The dinner was prepared by the junior mothers and was served by eight sophomore couples; the waiters wearing black trousers, white shirts, black bow ties and carrying a small towel over their left arm looked much like the French waiters to be found in the sidewalk cafes in gay Paris. The menu consisted mainly of baked ham. Jan Ryden was the Directeur des Toasts” for the evening. Between courses, the seniors were welcomed by Tom Gooding, the junior class president. Jack Martin, the senior class president, gave the response. After a message from Mr. Blout, and a solo from Rolland Howerter, the senior class will was read by Donald Sheckler, followed by the reading of the prophecy by Charles Luman. Next came a duet by Carol Kreider and Rolland Howerter. After some inspiring talks by Mr. Wood and Mr. Delabar the program came to an end with Gerald Van Tine singing some exquisite French songs. The dance music was furnished by Fred Oathout and his orchestra. The senior class sponsor was Harry Babbitt. Gerald Wine and Dorma Freeze were the junior class sponsors. 29
