Our garden full of pretty flowers We would work on them for hours. We water, hoe and pull out weeds, And then we start to plant the seeds. We watch the pansies as they rise, And watch our pear tree hit the skies. We hope next year the Seventh Grade Will care for the foundation we have laid.

FOREIGN FRIENDS by Nevada Brooks The most interesting thing the Seventh Grade did in English this year was to write to pen pals in foreign countries. First, we learned how to write letters in proper form. After our letters reached a certain standard and were approved by Mrs. Evans, we selected pen pals. Some of us wrote to people in Japan, New Zealand, Australia, Germany, Canada, and Malaya. As we received answers to our letters, we brought them to school and read them before the class. Now many of us have regular pen pals in distant countries. From them we learn the customs of their towns and countries. It is pleasing to note that these pen pals are as eager to exchange thoughts with us 8.S we HPS. AN INTERVIEW WITH A NEW by Carey Rose Sally Findlater entered Grade in the Fall of 1963. Before Sally came to Berkeley Hall, she attended three different schools. She says ourschool has many more subjects to learn. Sally especially likes the students and swimming pool. She also likes the Fortnightlies. Sally has been having fun this year and learning many different subjects. STUDENT the Seventh Shop by Val West Three times a week We have lots of fun, For we meet in the shop And the wood work's begun. Mr. McGee is our Shining light. He does every thing But make us a bike. ART by Sandy Smith In the Seventh Grade Art Class we have made many projects with the help of Mrs. Richards. Some were working with colors like the color wheel, and others were with paper like collages and mosaics. Finally, we did the decorations for the Sixth Grade Invi- tational. Our theme was HSurfing and Fun at the Beach. A TRIP TO THE L.A. COUNTY MUSEUM by Bunnie Swan, David Cole, Patricia Waldman, Gary Hansen A few mothers kindly offered to drive the excited Seventh Grade to Exposition Park. The trip to the Los Angeles County Museum was educa- tional and interesting, but the best word for our field trip was Hfunn. With Mrs. Richards as our guide, we saw a contemporary art exhibit which included Expressionism and Impression- ism. The climax of our whole trip was the Mexican Art Exhibit. These paintings gave us an idea of what life was like in those days. Among some of the things we saw were funeral masks of clay dolls, jade and many different Mexican clay or wood, gold figures, gods, and Mexican jewelry. The guides kindly informed us of the background of each article we saw. At noon the disappointing moment came, we had to return to school and leave wonder this ful world of magic. SPORTS by Kathy Kelleher and Debby Carnesciali Every year a new class comes into the Junior High and with it comes the excitement of many things. Among them is the thought of having gym clothes, lockers, and being able to play with the Eighth and Ninth grades. As in the preceding years, Mrs. Jeffries and Miss Letts direct the girls' sports. Through the year we play basketball, volleyball, soccer, and baseball. The boys' director is Mr. McGee. They cover football, basketball, soccer, and baseball over the term. We all swim during the warmer months. I am sure everyone is looking forward to games next year, and wonder ing who wil take the place of Dale Crow and Susan DeWindt as the Captains of the Whites and Blues.
