.7 red man Cfadd The entrance into a different phase of education was eagerly an- ticipated by me and probably by the other boys graduating from grammar school who were about to enter high school. A vocational high school. being a place where one is to learn a trade for his livelihood, undoubtedly made many boys take it very seriously and frightened them. Of course I was no exception. As I entered our school, I had hopes that someday I would graduate as a mechanic who knew 'his business and who, after some outside experience, would start my own enterprise or work for some large concern. Upon receiving an oflicial class. the boys started to mingle in groups. Friendships soon developed among us and many of the boys, at this writing, are 'numbered among my good friends. The majority of the boys were clean cut and did not lack in sportsmanship. In all we made up a good class. Days and weeks passed rapidly and we progressed very wellg in the auto shop our work was to write up some notes and to take apart and put together the units assigned to us. The end of the first term found us in the sheet metal shop where we were shown how to solder and make useful objects from sheet metal. Later we had a taste of the electrical and machine shop. Not to be neglected for mention were civigs, English, mathematics, general science, and health education. Many of the boys went out for athletics and succeeded in making teams. This phase of activity has proved invaluable and recreational to us. To 'help support the teams a majority of the boys paid the necessary dues to the G, O. organization which aids in the maintenance of tl'e greater part of our activities. One fact that the ninth termers should be proud of is that they will be the first second year group to enter the new building arid to have it as their otlicial residence for three full years. With such an honor awaiting us, it is up to us to show that we shall be able to shoulder an important responsibility and do .1 good job of it. jmeltlfv Szerz'c:jl TLD. -, .
