They come from all types of homes and backgrounds. To try to learn more about the background of B.H.S., letis start with two ninth grade sec- tions, 9-1 and 9-3. In 9-3 we find that there are forty pupils, ten of whom reside on farms. The occupation which holds preference among the fathers of the pupils is defense work. Some other vocations that rank high are factory, of- fice and farm work. The ma- jority of the mothers of these ninth graders are housewives, although there are six defense workers and a few engaged in factory work. The 9-1 section presents an altogether different back- ground. Twenty-one of the mothers are housewives, while the others are occupied in either factory or store work. The list of paternal vocations is quite different. There are only six defense workers and a comparatively low percent- age engaged in regional occupations. The remaining fathers make up this 'versatile list, an orchardist, tailor, lum- berman, engineer, salesman, truck delivery and an F.B.I. agent. Pupils enter this Hall of Knowledge anywhere from 6:45 until 8:39. The earlier arrivals shiver and freeze near icy radiators, debating wheth- er or not their education is worth the frigid weather and lack of sleep. The later ar- rivals dash recklessly to their lockers and homerooms, sink wearily into their seats and munch on their breakfasts and vitamin capsules. And so now you have an idea as to where our student body comes from, a student body representing all types of industry, a student body who have learned to Work and play together.
