Realm Of Numbers Is From the reaches of Consumer Math to Advanced Calculus, the student of numbers can find his field full of adventures and excitement through the exploration of his courses. The department encouraged independent study of math by an open competition in math that gives the student a full range of mathematics to enable him to discover his level and competence. Regardless of the student’s direction of interest, the budding mathematician can find assistance to solve that numerical enigma. Explored Through Work In Mathematics L to R: Mrs. Deal, Mr. Almonrode, Mrs. Eyre, Mr. Busick, Mrs. Donaldson, Mrs. Hughes, Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Macklin, Mrs. Larrimore. 28

Library Supplies Resources To Students From Left to Right: Mrs. Moul, Mrs. Simmons, Mrs. Beachum, and Mrs. Bruno, head librarian, loak over another stack of brand nev boaks they have to shelve. Mrs. Buchanan adds new cards to the files. As the York High students entered through the double doors of the library, they encountered an unlimited scope of knowledge. The library enabled a student to escape from the dull corridors into a world of serenity. Whether you were writing a paper, selecting a book, or leafing through a magazine, the atmasphere in the library remained tranquil. Behind the pleasant surroundings, were the ever present librarians, who were always ready to lead a lost student back to the card catalogue or the shelf containing the desired reference. For enabling the students and the faculty to broaden their horizans, a small word of praise is in order for their hard work in the ‘‘quiet” job. Mrs. Simmons finds reading is not all work. 27
