an Administrative personnel The growth of the York Junior College student body from a total of 140 in both day and night classes in 1953 to a total of 501 in September of 1958 has necessitated changes in staff, in curriculum and in administrative or- ganization. Several members of the staff have assumed duties formerly performed by the Dean with the consequence that he no longer has the personal contact with each student that previously was possible. This is one of the unfortunate results of growth, one which elim- inates one of the more pleasant aspects of the task. It was a necessary move to take care of present numbers of students and to prepare an organization which will fit better the tasks which will present themselves when the move to the new campus is consummated. Dr. RoLLiNs-Deon Office Staff, seated: Edith Lookingbill, Virginia Hess, Nonie Sauder. Standing: Janet Toomey, Helen Petters. YORK DISPATCH 10

Guidance Counsellors READING CLASS— First row: A. EsheLman, J. Britcher, A. Preston, S. Kline, C. Lyons. Second row: R. Black, R. Stauffer, A. Hanson, D. Heberly, F. Wise, G. Korthaus, K. Zamani, Mrs. Kagan. Roger Reynolds— Reverend John Winter York Junior College has added a Develop- mental Reading program to its growing Guid- ance department. In this new program students who are plodding slowly, painfully through their studies because of poor reading habits, now have a chance to practice skills which will add up to faster reading, better understanding, and greater reading pleasure. A modern tachistoscope helps students ac- quire greater speed and accuracy of visual acuity. A Controlled Reader helps students develop better and faster reading habits. Our first groups are hardworking, eager and interested in this program. The mechanical equipment, plus daily checks on progress make this a valuable learning experience in such an interesting package, that it seems like fun to learn. 12
