These are the "Young At Heart" who must now learn to adapt themselves to the high school schedule. They will also begin to consider what they wish to do in the following years. This is the way they feel about their first year in high school: English, which includes spelling, has often proved to us how much we misuse our language and how we can improve our speech and writing. However, we eventu- ally get our fill of subjects and predicates, objects and participles, so we have liter- ature for the second semester. A book re- port every six weeks and an occasional theme or story are also part of this course. Because of the conflicts in time schedules the boys and girls are divided for this class. The study of General Science covers wild life, energy and space, and tends to show us the complex things in our world and universe. Frequent experiments help demonstrate the facts which we learn here. We really give our brains a workout in General Mathematics class where we learn almost everything that has to do with numbers. Our teacher also adds many new terms dealing with mathematics and its use. Girls who enjoy sewing and cooking find Home Economics a useful and inter- esting class filled with worthwhile infor- mation and many new experiences. While the girls are taking Home Eco- nomies, the boys choose either Vocational Agriculture or Industrial Arts. Agriculture is mainly the study of things useful to a good farmer. The boys learn about building and using farm equip- ment, They study livestock and get valu- able information for use in future years. The rest of the boys attend shop class- es where they learn woodworking and use the many new tools available. Here they may become interested in carpentry or other phases of this type of work.

Activity Section Full of Life is the spirit that should reflect from the lives of all high school students. This pep and enthusiasm that is present in the Alta High School is devel- oped mainly through our activities. These activities tend to build students into good citizens with strong characters and well- developed personalities. Although schools were founded for the purpose of studying and learning, the social aspects should not be overlooked. It is through the membership in the follow- ing organizations that students learn to work together and learn to appreciate and respect other people and their opinions.
