FRESHMEN FRESHMEN CURRENT AND NOT SO CURRENT EVENTS And once again it ' s time for our five question ' Behind the Lines ' quiz, but first our honor roll of participating Schools. Seemingly without failure, Social Studies students heard newscaster Bruce Twineman repeat these immortal words every Friday. Unfortunately, television was not the only place stu- dents heard about tests and quizzes. Tests prevailed in the Social Studies class. So too did current events reports. Every Friday students flocked to the library and shuffled through magazines and newspapers for reports. Besides studying current and not so current events such as civil and World wars, students never failed to sway lectures to more humorous subjects such as drunk drivers, lively mountain folks and bygone college days. Searching for current events articles keeps Chris Jones and Tommy White busy on Friday mornings. Observing a film for an upcoming history report, Tony Robertson takes notes while Mrs. Cocks watches. 112 Social Studies

It almost equalled the feeling of finishing your English project ahead of time, or of discovering the right theme for your short story. Never forget how cunning you felt when your English group finished a thirty minute assignment in five minutes, or the time you made a report on a book you had never read! Yes, you played a few slippery stunts on your teacher, but usually you did what you were told. Sometimes you even had fun in English class! Trying to escape Mr. Buchanan ' s English class, Doug Biggs awaits his teacher ' s Zzz! Bobby Covington dozes off in English class; little does he realize that he attention. will awaken to a daily grade of zero. English 111 FRESHMEN
