Interesting, creative hobbies help Trojans took the saving All work and no play . . . to heart throughout the year as shown by the variety of hobbies they enjoyed in their spare time. The list of out- side interests included such unusual activities as practic- ing judo and developing film in a photography dark room. The conventional hobbies of collecting stamps or coins, and tinkering with cars were not forgotten. Many students found fulfillment in competing in speech meets, or singing in a band or folk-singing group. Others sought pleasure in outside organizations like church groups. Those with acting ability tried out for the school play, which required much time in rehears- ing and memorizing lines. Students also dedicated their extra time to worthwhile service to their community. As an amateur photographer, sophomore John Hoffman prints a roll of film in his darkroom located at his home.
