Fol- lowing is an assignment in the class of Mrs. Lillian Thomas by Bernard Spaulding. The underlined words, part of a spelling list,were to be us- ed in writing a composition., WHY I AM PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN It is a privilege to be a citizen of this great democracy. There are many advantages you have that you wouldn't have in a communist-gov- erned country. There was an item in a newspap- er that stated that the American dip- lomats in Russia had to take down an automobile and tell what each part was before they could get drivers' licenses In America it is pretty easy to get a license Of course you should have the radiator speed ometer and steering wheel checked You should be sure every instrurnent is in working order You should al ways be courteous to the pedestrian You should try to keep your car at a safe temperature You should be sin cerely studying the vehicle code be fore your test You wou.ldn't want to hear the familiar phrase Pull over Therefore you should obey the laws You would not want your license sus pended Being an American you do not have to read a certain newspaper or magazine You may get a subscrip tion to any one you happen to like You may carry out the type of legiti mate business transactions you wish You have freedom of speech You al ways have the right to question You may make an advancement in many fields These examples are some of the reasons I am proud to be an Am erican citizen, and they should be the reasons for any American to be proud of his country Sepulveda Wins Award Enrique Sepulveda is the 1952 winner of the Bausch 8: Lomb Hon orary Science Award Medal for a chieving the highest scholastic re cord in science subjects during his course at Jordan High School By winning this award, Enrique becomes eligible for three scholar ships each of which is valued at S 3 200 , I O .
