Everyday, seventh period, stu- dents interested in public speaking and drama gather in room one to display their talents. T,A.L.K. mem- bers also hold monthly business meetings and participate in many speech meets. T.A.L.K., in it's titth year sent three members to Warren Central to .Var K ' 1 participate in the regional, they were: Betsy larvis, poetry, Stephany Liby, poetryg Kevin Troy, extempo- raneous.

GX 25 Large enrollment in math and sci- ence classes must be triggered by something, and that something could be interest and the desire to learn. Putting knowledge into a stu- dent's mind is possible only if that mind is open. Give a mind some- thing interesting to learn and it auto- matically opens up, ready to receive anything taught. Although the math and science classes have a reputation as two of the most difficult subjects in the school, most of our ambitious col- lege-bound students major in these subjects because of the knowledge that will later be useful during ad- vanced schooling. 64 fMath And Science
