D isecver a new species Twenty-eight potential future veter- inarians and biological scientists were members of a new class formed this year. Now Zoology, the study of the an- imal kingdom, is being taught by sci- ence teacher Prentice Dupins. Dupins said that the class is popular because it's hard to find someone who doesn't like some type of animal. The class is recommended only to those who have taken Biology I.” Dupins said. They sould have done fairly well in that course to be eligible. Many students have taken Zoology to further their career plans. Junior Sue Ann Clayton, who plans to be a veterinarian, said that the class is preparing her for her future. I feel like I'm getting a good solid background, she said. The class has helped to show me some of what being a veterinarian is like. Other students have taken the course just for the fun of learning about the animals. I really like animals and enjoy learn- ing about them, senior Christy Low said. The class is great as it is, but I especially enjoy it because I love an- imals. — by Mark Barr SING IT AGAIN SAM.

Essential ingredients Forty members of Beta Club attend- ed the state Beta Club Convention at the Camelot and Excelsior Hotels in Little Rock on Friday and Saturday, January 29 and 30. Sylvan Hills' Betas won two com- petitions. Junior Lisa St. John won the math competition with a perfect score, Beta Club sponsor Kathryn Young said. “Even before we went to convention, I was convinced that she would win, Mrs. Young said. Other winners performed a skit in the talent competition which consisted of a satirical look at life in school. By winning first place, they qualify to go the the national convention this June in Little Rock. Practice was a factor for the winning talent group, senior Christie Schlieff said. We had to give up our lunch to practice for this skit.” Schlieff said. To win talent was the best. It was exciting when we knew we were going to win, and they hadn't announced it yet. After we did our talent, we knew we had won, and that was a great feeling. — by Melissa Mount PEER POWER.
