Perhaps one of the best ways to find out about the life of a Freshman is to be one. That is what 18 boys are experiencing this year. During this eventful year of fun, the Fresh- man class is doing its part in upholding the school standards in the academic and sport worlds. An event of which the Freshman are proud is the winning of the high-school spelling bee. This year, as in previous years, the Freshmen have been greatly aided in their academic achievements by the efforts of our ever-helping faculty. There are several good swimmers in the Freshman class who will help the school swimming team during its long, thrill-packed season.

The Sophomores have been prominent in many activities on the Flintridge campus this year, so that it would seem that the prospects for next year's junior class are bright. In consideration of such amphibians as Spence McCartney, Chuck Little, and many more promising swimmers like Bob Adams, jon Mathews, Graydon Oliver, and Bob Smith, it is evident that the Sophomores will not meet their Waterloo in the water. This class also seems equally agile in other fields with Ken Norris and jack Hecht playing A basketball, and Keith Nicol, Mansfield Smith, Fred Kresser, and Francis Cobb playing B , while on the baseball diamond Ken Norris, Fred Kresser, and jack Hecht were noticed.

When Mrs. Chatterton's room was combined with the old study hall to form the present spacious room, the fourth and fifth grades moved into a room in the main building, facing the garden.: Miss Gusweiler, in turn, was given the sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. Although she does not teach everything to these classes, Miss Gusweiler practically controls their work. The excep- tions to her rule are: Mr. Faskin, who, with his grand sense of humor, teaches the eighth grade history, Mr. Jardine, who, unlike last year, teaches the sixth and seventh grades in mathematics, and last, but not by any means least to her spelling students, Miss Hooser. It would be very inappropriate at this time to omit mention of Mr. Jardine and his nerve-racking but persistent effort to teach shop to those who don't know what a ham- mer is. As if this werer1't bad enough, the sixth grade also takes shop this year.
