yur Care ree Qzqffer . . Voices mingling with laughter, hurrying figures eagerly swarm- ing the halls, bright patches of colorful clothing dotting the campus, jubilant shouts ringing through the crisp autumn air after a Friday game . . . this was ll-IS life at its liveliest, its most typical, and its most revealing. This incomparable' spirit, was echoed especially in our laugh- ter. Singing in our hearts, freshening our outlooks, and filling us with comradeship and boundless optimism, laughter gilded every school activity with a special magic. It cascaded from our classroom doors and windows and permeated the halls. lt filled the empty shell of silent rooms in early morning, giving it life and warmth, and lingered whispering after the last stu- dent had departed and the red-brick buildings lay hushed in darkness.

The purpose underlining our broad curriculum was to instill in us a desire for knowledge that would follow us through future education, into future careers, and throughout our lives. In our search for knowledge the classroom was our laboratory: teachers, our guidesg and our own inquis- itiveness, our inspiration. It was this profound in- quisitiveness that led us to seek additional knowledge through outside reading and study, and to explore the Why's behind principles. We recognized that our limited information was small in comparison to the vastness of man's accumulated learning, and through steady progress, we found actual proof of the axiom the desire for knowledge increases ever with the ac- quisition of it. ...s-- 'A.'
