Hose M.A. I Social Studies Assistant Coach Problems Of Tomorrow's World According to Mr. Miller, the student in order to cope with the problems of tomorrow must think independ- ently, have courage to stand by his convictions, and appreciate other person's point of view. Miss Nelson thinks the teen-age style is practical and neat, but to her why unkempt shoes are in vogue is still an un- solved mystery. A student in order to solve the problems of his times, Miss Obye feels, should have the qualities of honesty, ingenuity, and an under- standing of history. ln Miss Ollman's opinion the qualities needed by a student to solve the problems of tomorrow are common sense and strong moral character. Miss Pearson enjoyed the movie depicting the life of Chopin, for not only was the story skillfully told, but the music was superb. Miss Pierce thinks the present day school dress is very democratic, sensible, youthful, and attractive. Because of the historical value, Immortal Wife is one of Mr. Pratt's favorite books. Miss Ralston thinks a student needs to understand the rights and duties of the citizens of a democratic society and the effect of modern science on our way of living. Mr. Robeson considers per- sonality, Judgment, and the ability to separate the truth are the qualities needed by students in the future. Since we are entering a period in which we will all live and work close together, Mr. Rose feels the qualities most needed in tornorrow's world will be openrnindedness and tolerance.

Timm 5 1 Many Instructors Select A Song To Remember As The Best As his favorite book Mr. Sabin selects On Being A Real Person for its good philosophy. Miss Sapo- riti's favorite foods are thick, juicy steaks and coco- nut crearn pie. Among the many radio programs Miss Sauber listens to are the New York Philhar- monic, and Charlie McCarthy. The picture which im- pressed Miss Scandroli most was A Song To Re- member. Because of the course Miss Sheetz is tak- ing, a physics text book has taken most of her read- ing time. As the best recent motion picture, Mr. Shumate chooses Rhapsody in Blue. ln Miss Slade's opinion, a student must think for himself and not just follow the crowd. Mr. Trumbull, when not working devotes his time to his hobby. woodworking. How we use atomic energy will depend on the de- gree to which we have developed, according to Mrs. Vincent. Because of the music, color, and casting, Miss Walker liked the motion picture A Song To Remember. Mr. Weber thinks atomic energy will eventually revolutionize industry, transportation, and medicine. The Song of Bernadette, was chosen by Miss Weinschenk as one of the best movies.
