Ferrin Gurney. Finished in time for the start of school this fall was the completely remodeled and renovated library. The library space has been doubled and Included in the area are two conference rooms which are enclosed in glass so that activities can be supervised by the librarian. These rooms enable small groups of students to work together on a group project or report without disturbing other students who are studying in the reading room. All reading and reference materials are now on display on shelves around the walls of the reading room, within easy access of all the students. Mr. Gurney said that interest and use of the library books has increased since the books have been made accessible to the students, A new office and work area has been built for the librarian, which includes cupboards for supplies, a work area, sink and other necessary equipment. The old library room has been converted into an Educational Materials Center where all the school equipment such as films, maps, projectors of various types, tele vision sets, etc., are stored and available to the teachers when needed for a particular class. Another project that has been recently completed is the hard- -, surfacing of the parking lot, across the street west from the building. This improvement adds much to the area and beatification of the community. Also new at the school this: system year is an inter-cor- n which links all rooms in the building with the office. Calls may bei both received and sent from any station. This service saves much time and is convenient for announcements and instructions, and to relay messages. Music can also be sent through the system to any or all rooms in the building, Mr. Gurney said. One of the new programs inaugurated early this year at the school was the tutorial program. This class Is taught by Mr. Bab-coand is designed to assist students in math and English. Participants are selected on a similar basis to the remedial program and each one is given: individual attention and help to! improve his ability in these areas, Mr. Gurney said. At the present time an addition to the school is under const ruction.

Parents are asked to caution their children against throwing debris onto the pond, located on the Lehi Elementary School grounds, adjacent to the Hutch-inMuseum. With gs "Don't be a Litterbug," is the Lions' plea. 'Don't throw rocks, cans, cartons and other materials onto the ground, and especially, keep such things off the ice. The boys and girls evidently do not realize that they are spoiling the fun for themselves as well as for others. The Lions make a practice of flooding the pond in order to build up the ice to a thickness sufficiently strong LA"- - ' to support skating parties, as well as individuals. With the preparations which have been made and the basic construction of the - rink, Lehi could have one of the best ice skating facilities in the area committee members pointed out. KEEP BICYCLES OFF Please keep bicycles off the ice, is asked. Not only is this a dangerous practice, but it is bad for the ice, and may cause cracking and breakage and general depreciation of the surface. It is pointed out, that boys and girls are welcome to use the ice for ice skating, even at times when the entire rink is not frozen over. If the ice along the edge is strong enough to hold the youngsters, they are welcome to use it for the proper skating. purpose-i- ce Firemen's Ball Saturday At Guard Armory "Hi Principal J.
