Dr. Gordon Pyle, Vice President of Isothermal Community College and in charge of the operation at the Jervey-Palmer Building, presented the Commissioners with a plan for expansion and improvement. He hopes to have a full freshman year given beginning next fall. Since the back parking lot fills up full, he would like to have lights put in the front parking lot and a stairway fixed so students can come in that way. He plans to have an electronic piano for 6 students, in which each student hears only his own music. He would like to move the snack bar into a larger room with chairs. Part of this will be done by carpentry students and would cost an estimated $542.15, and the rest done under contract with an estimated cost of $4569.10.

The PSAT/NMSQT is annually administered by the Educational Testing Service to interested Juniors, and Sophomores. The purpose of the test is to help prepare the students for the important Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) that they will take in their Senior year; as well as to find out which Juniors qualify to compete in the national scholarship competition, which is conducted by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. The scores, which reflect the student's verbal. and mathematical abilities are on a scale from 20-80 for each of the two sections, which is comparable to the 200-800 scale similarly used for the SAT Student reaction to the test varied, with comments ranging from: "...very hard test." to “...amusing little quiz" At any rate the students will receive their scores, and have their test booklets returned (which is to be a new practice) in about six weeks. — Reporter A broiler or fryer duckling is a young duck usually under eight weeks old A roaster duckling is usually sixteen weeks old and still quite tender.
