R. Morey M. O'Neill M. Sanders M. Voigt WITH THE CHRISTMAS holidays ended, jun ior chemistry students Evelyn Olsen, Susanne Ryan, and Mary .lo Norman remove the unusual decorations from the Christmas tree in the chem- istry lah. Susanne reaches for the glass funnel used as a top piece while Mary .lo friglitl looks on in amusement. Evelyn holds an angel made from filter paper which she designed when the tree was first decorated. A Bunsen burner, with its long cord trailing behind, took the place of the usual electric train which encircles the base of ai Christmas tree. Some of the more unusual deco- rations were chains of red and lmlue litmus paper, various colored measuring spoons, and pieces of rubber tubing. J. Muehlebach A. Osornio E. Singh M. Wallace P.

AT THE BEAUTIFUL La Jolla Country Club the juniors paid their official farewell to the seniors when they presented the Junior-Senior Prom. May 14. After an enjoyable evening of dancing, juniors realized that in the space of a few weeks they would become mighty seniors. AS A FINAL class project, the junior drama class presented the play, DUB LADY OF FATIMA, on Maryis Day. May 28. On June 7, at graduation the juniors dressed in pastel formals formed the traditional Guard of Honor for the seniors. The joys of junior year are past, but in a short time the happy days of seniors will be theirs. F. Green, M. Norman, M. Moser, B. Fleetwood, president vice-president secretary treasurer J. Henehan L. Hernandez .l. Hersey C. Irvine A. Kane D. Lesher .l. McDonagh P. Miller AS MARCARITA VVALLACE prepares to mark an ac- cent while scanning a line from Virgil's epic poem, the AENEID, Jean McDonagh and Joan Henehan smile their approval. The AENEID ranks among the greatest literary works of all times and is a very important part of the ad- vanced high school Latin course. CONTINUING THEIR THIRD year study of Latin, seven juniors have spent this year examining the works of the famous Latin authors. These girls feel that in studying Latin they gain a better foundation upon which to build a modern foreign language. Latin, they believe to be of value as a disciplinary measure, for a cultural background, and as a means of attaining mastery in English. FIRST YEAR SPANISH students, Patricia Miller, Joanne Waiituch, and Marie Prinos, exhibit unique Spanish art pieces. Their attention is focused on a red and white bull, made in Mexico, representing their class mascot, Ferdinand. By closely examining brightly colored pottery vases ob- tained from south of the border, the girls develop a finer appreciation of the artistic abilities of the Spanish-speaking countries. Sister Margaret Alacoque, instructor in Spanish. believes that a study of the Spanish people themselves, their customs, and recreation is as important to the students as learning their language. AS A RESULT of a French vocabulary bee, students of the first year French class retired to the Point, where cokes were served by the losing team to the winners, refreshing their tired minds. Proud of their victory, Mary Beth Harri- gan and Charlene Borgerding offer a toast to their defeated opponents, Jean Weber and Louise Myers. The conversation at the get-together drifted to the absurd possibilities of the junior French students ever arriving in gay Paris. These girls have taken an active interest in the culture of France and have enjoyed analyzing the quaint customs of the French peasantry and nobility.

X, 3 w rs Wllllili STllDYlNC THE Revolutionary Vllar period juniors were aided hy copies of the original documents which included the Declaration of lndependence, the Con- stitution of the United States, and the Bill of Rights. Pat Mulcahy lleftl, lean Muehlehach, and llcverly Snow find that they must handle these crisp parchment papers with particular care. While examining scrolls. the girls noted with interest the peculiar spelling and odd shaped letters. The Declaration of Independence showed the many cor- rections rnade hy Thomas Jefferson before he arrived at the final draft with which we are familiar. fl0N'l'ElNlPORAliY POETRY BOOKS constitute a large part of the first semestc-r's work in third year English. ln the above picture, Margaret Farrell finishes her typing. while Gail Graham and Louise Myers discuss their coin- pleted hooks. As a result of compiling information on con- temporary poems and their authors, the girls ohtain a deeper appreciation of modern poetry. lfndiscovered artists were revealed when some of the poems were illustrated with stndent's free hand drawings. Besides an opportunity to display their ingenuity, juniors also became more familiar with the technique ol' library research in doing necessary reference work. Their hooks also fuliilletl specifications for a regularly printed hook, preparing: them for similar assign- ments in college. -u.. svn. 7
