All right, girls, twenty times around the track and then we'll plunge into our folk dances after five-minutes of collapse-time!! Girls' Gym! Then there is the Commando Tactics Course for junior G-Men used by the boys to system- atically demolish and sling together again the gym on their days. For girls of a practical nature there is a course in Home Nursing. Here the girls be- come model nurses and learn how to make beds that bear no resemblance to the Rockies. They search for pulsesg they take your temperatureg yes, they even give first aid when needed. Page 16 Inmuetzonr To make ez hed, for the To the left-fall! To the righf-fo!!!

Now my tmnrlalion remix- I FIFTEEN J It is not difficult to find at East High students who know that Omnis Gallia tres portes dividit, for some students take Latin. It is also easy to find students who can give literal translations of Besame Mucho, for some others read Spanish. Parlez-vous francais? readily brings an answer, Mais oui, from the French student. Upperclassmen understand when one inquires, Sprechen sie Deutsch? In fact, East High is just full of talent for conjugating and declining. Classes of the Language Department do not want for variety. One day brings a movie of Mexico, the next a concert of Spanish music, a dramatization of Caesar, or a recorded lesson in French diction. Then sometimes for more serious purposes, text books are used too. In postwar days when we take our own heli- copters and go out for a short spin to see our friends in Mexico or Paris, how nice it will be to understand the traffic signals and be able to get around without using sign language.

!,dZ,afM4 ,Z!uJ1 East High offers an invigorating course of brain-blitzing subjects in mathematics. For in- stance, as a teaser, the young and innocent stu- dent may take Arithmetic, or if he chooses, Algebra, a bracing subject for a beginner. This he either Hunks or passes. For the sake of a happy ending, we'll say he passes-and so, feeling gay, he signs up for Ge- ometry, Plane fif he wants college creditj, Prac- tical Qif he's machine mindedj If the student comes through this with flying colors-or even banners at half mast-it's a sign of definite success. Now he can afford to be reckless. Conse- quently, he has a brief fling at Advanced Algebra. If this ordeal is survived the student is usually mathematically impervious to all failure, so he signs up for Solid Geometry and Trigonometry which slide by with no effort at all-well prac- tically none!
