Editor . . . Lorene DeJarnette Classrooms were the scenes of various high school experiences--entertaining and pleasant, sometimes discouraging, always profitable. Each of the five classes contributed its comed¬ ians, athletes, beauty queens, and scholars who, with co-operation, patience and understanding, created, in four years, an institution which stands out in the minds of students, teachers, and par¬ ents . Every class had a job, and with its capable officers and sponsors, the students worked dur¬ ing the day and often late at night to perform their duties. Mr. Crews seems to have quite an in¬ quisitive History II class. Any night one entered the halls of H.C.H.S. he heard sounds from the Students Activities room or from the gym. Students were busily working on an assembly, play, school publication, or en¬ gaged in an athletic event. Certainly, there is more to school than studies. Students share in experiences, laugh¬ ter, and work which help mold their characters and which linger with them year after year. In the following pages you will see the faces of H.C.H.S. students, but you ' ll never know them until you, too, walk the halls with these students and share in their experiences. Students in this first year typing class take weekly speed tests to increase their proficiency. 28
