See) English Means Plays, ee Contests and Debates — )ft ORM AOL bs Freshmen or senior, both studied Shakespeare. DG. ise Petian 2 hy ‘| =) Freshmen learned of life, love, and tragic misfor- Pa aI © tune through Romeo and Juliet. King Arthur stirred the memory banks of seniors who ventured into learning about the Medieval and Elizabethan worlds. On the unconventional side, dramatic scenes were acted out by juniors; they attempted to por- tray witches and judges in The Crucible. More conventionally, they analyzed Puritan religious principles of sin and punishment in The Scarlet Letter. Sophomores learned to cuss in mythological Greek when they hurled the phrase, “By Zeus.” Their reading ranged from the epic poem The Odyssey to Cry The Beloved Country, which gave them an outlook on South African life. Fifty juniors and seniors enrolled in the increas- ingly popular Public Speaking classes. There, students wrote and practiced speeches in prepara- tion for contests against students of other schools. They debated current controversial subjects: should minors be tried as adults in serious crimes and the abortion issue.

R P Tops the List of Library Uses for EHS Mind-expanders R D, otherwise called research and development, was the sign of a good busi- ness. R P known as research and projects, was the mark of students who used the library for term papers, reports and other assorted assignments. The more than 15,000 books in the library helped the authors of such exciting term papers as: ‘The Compar- ative Analysis of Artillery Firepower in the Second Battle of Savannah.” Mr. Robinson's audible articulators of the English language were video taped during the year. Forensically inclined students truely benefited from seeing themselves in action just as others saw them. The reading tastes of students varied. For those into the body beautiful, the Teen Age Body Book was appealing. Too Young Too Die impressed those who read it with the seriousness of teen suicide. The library really had something for everyone. RIGHT: SHEILA BOWLER seems to pay attention to some thing else rather than doing her work.
