STUDENTS OVER COME Loss OE: CLASSROOMS AND SUPPLIES As students walked through various entrances it was obvious that enroll- ment had increased considerably. We found ourselves walking in back to back crowds, waiting to get from one end of the hall to another. The ad- ministration implimented the use of one way halls to try to alleviate the problem. Eventually each student de- vised his own plan to get to class and the one way system faded out. Throughout the year Garland High experienced several minor fires. They consisted of an electrical short caused by a squirrel climbing through the ceiling tile and a small fire in the cafeteria air conditioning ducts. Each time students were asked Opening to evacuate the building. However, never before had any school in this district experienced anything like the blaze that raged through the admin- istration and vocational wings just two days after Thanksgiving. Thus, once again students were sub- jected to inconvenience, thanks to the delinquency of four teenage ar- sonists. Students returned after the Thanksgiving holidays to see city work trucks, cleaning crews, report- ers, and all the remnants of an early Sunday morning fire. Crews of workmen had worked all through the night to try to repair what was neces- sary to hold classes Monday morn- ing. Students cooperated with all that was asked of them. They willingly emp- tied their lockers so that cleaning crews could salvage as many of the soot covered school books as possi- ble. New bell schedules were devised and students were forced to sacrifice their break time so the system could work out. Once again the students and faculty were able to overcome an obstacle. All this could not have been achieved had everyone not been will- ing to cooperate. Only by Pulling Together we can overcome any ob- stacle. That is the spirit that em- bodies Garland High and all the gen- erations who have walked through its doors.
