SUNSETHILLS RESTAURANT Famous For Our Steak Specials Anderson Supervises Distribution Of Books With the beginning of school comes the issuing of books from the book room under the super vision of Mr. Lacy Anderson. The book room, located on the second floor across from the li- day, is open four periods a day. Each day there are books to be counted, numbered, and issued. Four boys, one for each period the store is open, help Mr. Anderson keep records of the books and assist him in issuing them. These boys are Peyton Neal, Sidney Oliver, Robert Turner, and Tony Schiffman. Their job is a very hard one and deserves much credit. This job is not one that is done for pay, but is done chiefly for the school. The book room contained around 16,000 books before school started, but now the majority of the books have been issued. September 2 and 3 were the busiest days. Over 10,- 000 books were checked out and issued to the students. Each student has an average of five books. For the use of these books, he pays a book fee which is collected during the first week of school. Only a few students have not yet paid their fee and they are urged to do so as soon as pos sible. INlsny books that are issued this year will be lost, damaged, or dis carded. Each ■ semester between 75 and 100 books are lost. For this reason, students are urged to place book stickers and numbers in their books. These help locate lost books. Many different kinds of books can be found in the book room. The commercial department alone has 42 different kinds of texts. Some other departments are vo cational with 47; the English with; 21; the home economics, 42; the mathematics, 12; and the history. 10, The book room is open every j Ed Murrow LiFe Story Told In School Paper “This is Edward R.
