School Began on a Busy Note Freshmen entering new horizons of hope and promise, sophomores certain in the knowledge of a year behind them, juniors wondering of their future encounters, sen- iors dreaming of the future while treasuring their last year--these are students making up the year at Durant. Moods play a very important part in the school life of an individual. This year was no different. Although school is only nine months long, activities run all year. In the summer there is baseball and softball. Even before school begins, the football boys are practicing for the big games in the fall. On Monday, August 31, school be- gins for another term. New courses, speech, psychology, economics, and sociology, are added. A spark can be seen on the juniors' faces on September 3 when they receive their class rings. However, the mood changes to gloom on the ninth and tenth as the ITED tests are given. Eighteen students attend the FTA Convention on September 14 at which time Joyce Riessen is voted vice -president of the district. Perhaps one of the most memorable days of the school year is the twenty-fifth --Homecoming. Connie House is crowned queen with Janice Grunder as first runner-up, Janice Otto as second runner-up, and Carol Semsch and Lynne Wilson as the other two candidates. The football game ends in a O-O tie with Solon. A A ,lx 1
