Slate History Mr. Harold Reade Chemistry, Physics, General Science Mr. Richard Baldwin Industrial Arts In our library, our faithful, patient teachers have a chance to use their few precious moments of leisure to check up on the events of the day as they meet informally around a library table. In the upper corner, several of our teachers are taking advantage ol our library s new world map facilities as they find the locality of the world events. Mr. Smith has evidently found the right spot, as he indicates with a pencil. Mrs. Webb, our helpful librarian, is agreeing, while Mrs. Beard and Mr. Williams look on with in- terest. Mr. Beard linds his own solution to the problem. Four of our coaches. Mr. Larsson. Mr. Peterson. Mr. Comet and Mr. Morris share the sport section ol the paper as they meet congenially around the library table. Mr. Peterson has evidently found a loophole in the strategy of one of our opponents. Mr. Lars- son and Mr. Cornett check the league listings, and Mr. Morris makes his calculations for the next guest guesser contest.

Those early autumn or late spring days of warm sun and deep shade, the feel of cool grass, companionship and hooks and plans. I hese are moments that we treasure. Ouick moments there are too . . . the brig ht ' Hello” in passing, the clattering locker doors, spilled books and Where’s my pen?” or I can t see over you! Some of us first saw these halls when we were grade school age. We peered in through the doors or were the fortunate errand bearer that tip-toed down the hall and felt the thrill of quiet classroom stir. Then we dreamed of these days that are now. and of ourselves as part of this gay and busy world of high school. And now. we re here and there is surely little time for reflection, but we will remember moments like these—full, hurried, hopeful, or dispairing —in another day that beckons to us now. 14
