In the classroom, new books, new teaching methods and new and creative ideas on the part of many teachers all helped to make this year unique. In the area of sports, the Bengal athletes proved that it's quality and not quantity that counts. Competing with much bigger schools, the Tiger athletes proved victorious time after time, making up for their size and number with heart and determina- tion. A rekindled sense of spirit pre- vailed, as students and teachers alike supported their school by wear- ing orange and black and attending the various functions in and out of school. On the whole, it seemed that a new direction and a new sense of pride was reborn. Hopefully, this trend will be nurtured to a full maturity next year. Themel3
