Everything was second or “11”. Just a review of last year we thought. But— a new evil appeared on the scene. Dissecting, memorizing, sketching, discussing and smelling the forms of life became an obses¬ sion with us ... a required obsession under the unpretentious name of BIOLOGY. We survived. And besides, we handed in nine book reports, took the Nationwide Latin Examination, learned to sew with dexterity, laboriously descended and ascended the “gym hill” for the last time (we vowed) and began getting our drivers’ licenses. By the time we had grown quite immune to Midterm exams, typewriter ribbon, and strained wrists achieved from too much diagramming. And suddenly— we were Juniors! Armed witii compasses, rulers, and sharpened pencils, we attacked a year of plane geometry. The Einsteins and such gathered second period to bear up under the strain of physics ... We all sat daily under the auspices of Mr. Noble and learned fact after fact in U. S. History. The Junior class meetings became more and more frequent.
