Theme due in English, report assigned for history, science experi- ment to complete. But we dig in-Shakes- peare, Keats, Bismark, and Cromwell be- come familiar figures, and HZO, law of gravity, and isotopes are soon part of our vocabulary. Yes, we store away much use- ful knowledge for the present and future as we attend our scheduled classes. Yet, help- ful as these sessions may be, our energy and attention run low about eleven, and when, at last our lunch period arrives, it's a wel- come break. But there's another aspect of our classes, too. Such electives as art, music, and jour- nalism, although frustrating at times, offer a pleasant change in our daily routine. The school day passes and it's 3:08-time for those special doings we've been eagerly anticipating! Stiff assignment requires concentration 13

Congestion reigns i Ili I ll bramlnar lesson dese, dem, d0ZLl1e Our Day Comes to A Perfect End The banging of lockers, piles of books, and excited talk on what's to come seems to be a signal that the formal studies are com- plete for the day. Lockers are the only space one can call his own and the extent of mak- ing it homelike is varied. As we leave the school for unknown des- tinations the work and talk of the day is far from forgotten. Some participate in sports or clubs while others sprinkle in a bit of laughter and fun over a coke or with friends. Then to bed, but no-the books must be cracked' despite droopy eyes.
