Science-the open door With the important part science plays in our every day life it is entirely fitting to have the outstandingjScience Department that we have. Our future scientists will find general science, biology, chemistry, and physics to guide them in their future careers. All of us at one time or another have had cause to see and remember Mr. Mann at work, whether behind his little cards or around the lab. Tenth grade students find Mr. Burrows' smiling face and ready wit a welcome addition to the study of plants and animals. But if you should miss your pet housefly or ant, you may find it in some biology student's insect collection. Ninth graders get their introduction to science in Mr. Padgett's general science classes. All in all we are very proud of our science department and think that the young scientists of Winter Haven High School will add much to the World of Tomorrow.

This year the library has grown into a more pleasant and serviceable school organization. With the removal of the Junior High, Room 308 was made available for a combination library office, work room, and periodical room. Thus, the actual library has expanded to include a comfortable reading section, a reference nook, and a browsing section. Material and services are readily supplied by a group of student assistants who have been trained in the business by carrying on a well-organized library. The school is indebted to our librarian, Mrs. Scarborough, and her assistant, Mrs. Lewis, for the pleasure and services which the library provides. I STUDENT LIBRARIANS
