Students em find s ome wietd plms fot theit studying Getting a sound education is the primary purpose of Central and every other school. But probably the last thing most of Central ' s students want to do is study. So, usually with almost everything else pos- sible out of the way, students finally settle down to do their homework. Studying is done in a variety of ways and in as many places as students can find to either hide away or to combine it with something much more in- teresting. Every student has at least one study hall every day, but many things other than studying can be found going on there. One of the more popular places for doing homework is at the lunch table in the cafeteria during noon hour. Study hall i;; not only used for studying school subjects, but for studying the Spotlight. Sharon Burch enjoys reading the Christmas issue of the school paper after she has finished her homework.

lunch houf Ms students he din in emy dhection Eleven-twenty and twelve-rwenty- bell are a signal for Central students to run, run, run! Some students run for the cafeteria to get in the lunch line; some snidents run for their cars to drive around; some stu- dents run for one of the nearby restaurants; some students run for downtown to eat and shop; and some students leisurely ivalk from their third and fourth period classes. Lunch hour also finds teachers strolling to the cafe- teria for a leisurely lunch, to their cars to drive home for lunch with their wives, or to the teachers ' work room to make out a last-minute test. All in all, lunch hour is filled with eating, studying, gossiping, sleeping, and just relaxing. Not all smdents eat lunch during their lunch hour. Some students, like Bob Walworth, enjoy doing im- portant shopping instead of eating their lunches. Most students spend their lunch periods stuffing them- selves or just relaxing. Spotlight workers however use their lunch hours to finish extra stories. Teachets as well as students eat in the cafeteria during lunch hours. Mr. Baughman, Mr. O ' Brien, and Mr. Yager are enjoying a wholesome meal.
