AMERICAN HISTORY, past and present, became real with the maps, globes, and other materials available for Olll' USC. SOMETIMES WE DID THE INFORM- ING while others listened and learned. tr ' if -gig Of Knowledge Gained in the Classroom Although we were lousy with many extracurric- ular activities throughout the year, our chief pur- pose was to obtain an education. With the advice of our teachers and the aid of excellent facilities, we increased our knowledge in many fields. Be- cause of this friendship and these aids, studying was an enjoyable and not just an everyday rou- tine. The use of laboratory equipment, extra projects, ,V ,LII maps, and modern books made our classes interest- ing. Even though the methods of study differed with each student, all recognized the need for an education. All of this, the preparation for the next class and probing the unknown, made up our aca- demic life at Fair Park. REPORTS, THEMES, AND VERBS added to life at Fair Park fun, knowl- edge, success, and the joy of understanding and being understood in our communications.

WE LIKED WHAT WE SAW of Fair Park and its people and ways. Its assemblies found us appreciative listeners. WE APPLAUDED the success of our classmates and en- couraged them to make greater efforts. We championed those who tried. Of Things We Observed Daily uActions speak louder than Wordslw We at Fair Park expressed ourselves openly in all phases of school life. Whether at work or play, there was an atmosphere of enjoyment. Things were made interesting, amusing, and educational at the same time. It has been said that a picture is Worth a thou- sand Words. Fair Park may be thought of as a huge picture. During the year we were constantly influenced by our surroundings. Each portion of this picture told a different story. Some views were amusing, as the days the Pow Wow was sold, while others were more serious, such as the learn- ing of some phenomena in the field of science. WE ENTERED INTO EVERY ACTIVITY with enthusi- asm. We gave the name 'Tair Park Indians meaning. TO EVERY STUDENT was available additional informa- tion and entertainment in a vast array of books in the library.
