FRENCH en, Miss Kauffman, F, Allen, Beck SOME DAYS WE SHIVERED WITH THE COLD: OTHERS WE HAD SHAKESPEARE ENGLISH CLASS Language is a priceless gift. The masterful use of language is a fine art. The correct use of our native language is a duty too often disregarded. In our English Classes we were not only being constantly retaught correct usages and the need tor clarity of expression, but we were taken back and introduced to the ways and lives of many of our English authors. We began the year with the study of the Shakespearian tragedy, Macbeth, and we devoted a considerable amount of time to poetry. The course would not have been complete without our share of writing, and so we worried through such assignments as investigative themes and auto- biographies. Michael Hozik was our English teacher, FRENCH CLASS French is where you find us, and usually the us referred to here was in the Driver Training Classroom. This room is iust a small room in the south wing of the building and was originally designated as the Men Teachers' Room. Either because of its size or because of the Drivers' Training sign now on the door, it was a difficult place to find. On occasions when all attempts to locate the room tailed, our teacher, Miss Ellen Kauftman, would assume the role of a detective and seek out the lost wanderers and return them to la salle de classef' Such cases of mass amnesia were always followed by rather severe symptoms of writer's cramp. It is understandable why, on certain days, we wrote more French than we spoke. YOU MEAN WE'RE NOT GOING TO WRITE ANYTHING TODAY? ENGLISH 'X Weaver, Hlavely, Chontos, Mr. Hozilc, Dowen.

DEADLINES NEVER DIE, THEY JUST KEEP COMING AT YOU THE ECHO THE ECHO Thirty-eight issues in a thirty-six week school year was mute testimony of the activity of Michael Hozik cmd his ECHO staff. Editor- in-chief Robert Berish and his crew had many a skirmish with deadlines. However, the Year ended with the outcome of these skirmishes definitely in the staFf's favor. The young journalists were well supplied with material for news stories, and it goes without saying that the basketball season produced plenty of material for the sports' page. The paper, which is one of two high school weeklies in the area, carried many regular features which were extremely popular with the student body. MECHANICAL DRAWING Approximately one hundred forty students were enrolled in the Mechanical Drawing Classes of Leonard Orange during the course of the year. Enrollment in the exploratory course for Junior High students changed each nine weeks. This course consisted of the fundamentals of mechanical drawing, blue print reading, lettering, planning, sketching, and learning the use of various types of drafting tools. Senior High students had more advanced work in drawing, and each student was required to complete a project. After having a particular proiect approved by Mr. Orange, they would make a drawing and follow through with the completed article which was usually executed in metal or wood.
