Making Themselves at Home in their new teen-age lounge in St. Agnes Branch of the New York Public Library, the youngsters from the neighborhood, which has about 12,000 teen-agers, not only read, but play checkers and chess, chat, plan dramatic activities and listen to the radio. A sound-proof wall separates the lounge from the adult reading room.
