LANGUAGES One day. Caniehe. a eute little French poodle. whispered to me in a low. soft voice, Mje vous aime heaueoupf' l smiled rather kindly and hoped that she was saying something complimentary. How- ever. as soon as we parted company. l seampered down to Mrs. Smithis room to find out exaetly what Caniehe meant. Mrs. Smith persuaded me to take an elementary course in French so that l could converse with Caniehe. Elated hy this idea, l trotted into Miss Augeifs room. She heguiled me with her fascinating aneedotes ahout the people. places, and dogs she had seen on her travels.

MATHEMATICS Alter several torturous hours of trying to make my budget balance, l decided to seek assistance from Mr. Smith of the math department. With a few deft strokes of his pencil Mr. Smith totaled all my columns and settled my accounts. Then and there I decided that I must take one of the excellent math courses offered at Classical. Since I was anxious to meet the other fill'llllQy memhers of the department, I took a whirlwind tour. meeting Mrs. Flanagan, Miss Marston, Miss Parkinan, Mr. jermakian, and Mr. Oillonnell. Mrs. Flanagan was buried deep in tho midst of a cookhook, look- ing for a new and tempting recipe. Not Wishing to disturb her. I tiptoed quietly out. In the hall, I met Miss Marston, who was busily rushing to a Red Cross meeting. I quickly jumped out of her way and trotted into Mr. lermakianis room. I-Ie was thumbing through piles of envelopes, look- ing for different types of stamps. After talking with him about stamps and sports. I hriskly seampered out of his room and down the hall. As I skipped along, who should I see hut Mr. Oillonnell, armed with camera and film. He mentioned that after school he was planning to take some candid shots of Springheld. l hurried away. thinking what interesting teachers there are at Classical.
