CHRONICLE The Chronicle has proved through the years that it is of vital importance in our everyday school interests and activities. Under the able leadership of Mr. Sampson, the faculty adviser, and its ever-capable staff, the Chronicle serves as a medium to promote interest in recreational activities. The ever-popular “Scene Around” has for many years held much interest in the newspaper alpng with the numerous articles. Those who work on the staff deserve a great deal of credit for work that certainly has been well done. The student participation has grown consider- ably in the past years. This proves the Chronicle is im- portant in bringing together everyone in Arlington High School. Furthermore, the Chronicle has done a terrihe job in crediting all athletic teams and clubs for wonder ful sportsmanship and ability in their fields; whereas, very little praise has been given the staff of the newspaper. Now is the time for us to give credit to all who are behind the scenes in the business, editing, typing and advertising departments of our school newspaper, the Chronicle, whose staff greatly appreciates the work of the student contributors.

President Paul Seery TT ' pC ' TO A President Rouert Daley Secretary Earline Faulkingham Treasurer Terence O’Leary “The best orchestra in years,” says Mr. Einzig about one of the better known or- ganizations in the school. If you passed room 7f) on Thursday or Friday during the sixth period, you would hear the orchestra rehearsing for some school function. This club fur- nishes music for assemblies, the Dramatic Club slunv, and graduation. This year, for the twentieth time, the orchestra and the Gilbert and Sullivan C.lub ha e oiven their annual o performance. Presented in . pril was Babes In Toyland, the peak of achievement of the year’s work. For the first time last year, officers were chosen for the orchestra and dues ivere collected. The dues finance the pur- chase of pins, which are presented to the senior members of the orchestra, rvho are completing their third year as a member. The orchestra of 1955-1956, which will soon become a thing of the past, will long be remembered as one of the best orches- tras Arlington Fligh has ever enjoyed. a c3 tz □ ede peop 4 Eighteen

To (]nalily ior tlie training tlie student must first take a course in Driver Education; most pupils do so in the jimior year in order to be ready to go behind the wheel in the senior year. The first day at the wheel finds the student with mixed feelings of fear and delight while his fellow passenge assurances, Mr. Frank Kotchin, onr patient driver overcome his nervousness, . lthongh tf periences, he is soon surprised to find that he rs share a leeling of horror. W ' ith calm re- nd understanding instructor, helps each new e student encounters many frightening ex- is able to think calmly and make his own decisions. The majority of the students be- come proficient drivers within the six-week course; then they go through an agonizing test day on which most receive their li- censes. The informal atmosphere of Driver Training makes it a most enjoyable class. Seniors are fortunate in having such in- valuable training offered so pleasantly. T iventy
