The center of interest in Mrs. Cozzens' English I class tt focused on Donald Crews as he gives a reirori to his fellow classmates. You cant sec that time clock but rest assured it’s there since the worried expressions on the faces of members of Mr. Balshan’s Typing II class indicate that he is giving his famous 5 minute time writing test. Bees couldn't be any busier than the members of Mrs. Hiller's Sewing class. 14

'ou could staree in a neu; school looking for the cafeteria! Upon exploring the ground floors I stumbled onto the main office where one of the busy clerks had a huge, glossy, juicy apple on her desk. Continuing on my way I heard deafening screams and knew this was the girls' gym. The mouth-watering aroma of the cafeteria seemed near, so I scurried to the basement. Here I found janitors, sweeping and munching crunchy peantit brittle! My hollow stomach gave with a hunger pain that shot me up the stairs. Entering the Occupations class to hear about the taste-teasing career of a Dietician onlu increased my hunger for food. I wandered weakly into the Algebra class where they were discussing food budgets. Then came the Science class with a talk on the number of proteins in a tender sirloin steak. 1 staggered to the first floor and used my last spurt of energy to carry me to my destination—the cafeteria. Here I anxiously gobbled a sandwich and milk in time to hear the next period bell ring. “At ease there. Buddy. says our famous math teacher. Mr. C tamurro. General Science covers everything from the structure of a snowflake to the eruption of a volcano, says Mr. Perry. You either have your lunch and no scat or a scat and no lunch. “According to the last test, you re the most bashful group in the schoolsays Mr. Morris. Whenever topsy-turveu pic is served. Mrs. Flynn always has a caoacity crowd and a fine cash balance.

Mr. Cannon demonstrates cabinet making to an interested group. Eddie Ebert and Joe Dowling exercise diligently as George Zalan-Korossj looks on. My English teacher assigned some research work, so I climbed the stairs to the fourth floor and walked into the main room of the librarti where students, seated at long tables, were engrossed in reading. As I paused, unsure of myself, a member of the Librarti Guild asked if he could assist me. I thankfully agreed.. After we finished preparing my assignment, I asked the Guild member if it was hard to help in the library. He. explained that under the guidance of Miss. Lehlbach, the librarian, he and other members of the Guild learned to operate the library efficiently. Miss Lehlbach asked me to carry several overdue book slips to classrooms. Since that would give me a chance to sec what other students were learning, I was glad to do so. The first class I entered was Algebra I. There students were copying formulas and working them out. Next I entered the Typing class. Amid the mechanical efficiency of the typists, I felt small. They all seemed so sure of themselves. When I entered the Sewing class the sight of a room full of girls amazed me. They were harmless enough I guess. Mrs. Hiller was helping one girl with her sewing while the others were working alone. Leaving the room in a hurry, 1 headed to the next room. Miss Brokaw and Barbara Martin seem worried about Barbara's tcmjKraturc. Library Guild members arc always busy, even before classes begin.
