.. . But Sometimes It’s Too Early. During other class periods the French and Spanish students were trying to learn how to ask, “May I go to the restroom?” in another language. They were also finding out that even a computer could speak a foreign language. The O.W.A. students spent their morning hours in a classroom atmosphere while in the afternoon they went to work in the community. In study hall some of the students scurried to finish homework due next hour, while others caught up on lost sleep. Creating lasting treasures in Industrial Arts the students attempted projects in such areas as Light Construction and Wood Technology. In the Home Economics department girls and guys both learned how to; plan wardrobes, candlewicking, give demonstrations, understand small children, cook jams, and other such things that will help them both now and later on in life. As the last of the strenuous morning classes neared their end the students’ stomachs began to rumble and the students responded to the call with a dash to the lunch room. Morning Academics 13

More Than Food Daily when the bell rang at 10:30 a rush of feet came pounding down the stairs, through the halls and rushed in- to line for lunch. Once everyone was served there were a few minutes of quiet as the main activity was con- sumption of food. After the food was gone trays were shoved to one side and decks of cards or overdue homework were pulled out. By 11:00 a.m. another rush of feet came running down and the first lunch period was over. The entire process would repeat three times, with everyone fed and back in class by 12:00 noon. The menu ranged from pizza on most Fridays to the reliable old macaroni and cheese. There were oc- casional experiments like a salad bar and chocolate milk, but pizza remain- ed the favorite. Lunch time served purposes beyond nutritional substance. Students crowded in front of the mural in senior hall. While others escaped to the library and spent time studying in a quieter atmosphere where the muted conversation and rustle of pages were the only sounds heard. 14 Lunch
