BASKFTEALL Basketball is a very im- portant spo t rt Franklin High School.', at leas ;, I think so. Of cource that s only my opin- ion, ai,d probably tbe opinion of anyone sl3o w,o pLays bas- ketball or i3 interested in it. At tho beginning of the year we thought we might not even have a team this year} buc Mr. Harris worked hand and faithfully to schedula enough games to make it vorvhvbile- putting all the time and ef- fort into organizing the boys' and miris' basketball teams. Playing basketball takes good sportsmanshio and a lot of patience. Some of the pupils that don't olay basket- ball seem to think they know the game a lot better than the players themselves, and if they start telling you how to do this and hov to do that, just when you have finished a hard game or even a lining game, it takes a lot of will power not to 'blew yrur top. So if some of those people would throw a few good things at the players once in 1 while, it might make the ol eye ’s iee'1 more like playing instead of feeling that they can't do anything right. We do appre- ciate constructive criticism, but ple a se ti'y not to abbot off your destructive criticism at us. We are looking forward to this season anc we a o going to do our best this year,, both boys an! girl3, and try to win every game. Shirley Emch '66 THE PROBLEMS OF OUR SCHOOL The main factor why our school is not progressing is that we do not have the money to buy, and to maintain the bills and expenses which occur. It is not the town's fault, because of this, but it still does not help the situa- tion. Right now the question is Would % e like to join other schools and have or9 place for all students to go? But another problem which some of tho peoole have is that the studants will not get a fair chance, not only in studying but also in sports too. The way it is now all students who wish to participate in sports are able to do so, but in a school of a thousand or more you would have tryouts and if you didn't do well enough you would be left out. Getting back to studying; if you are in a class of thirty or forty you either learn your lesson the first tine or rr e just left behind , because the teachers at such a class cannot take the time to go over and over the sane thing for four or five students. In the sane situation in a 3tr.all school you can have help vrhen you need it . Bo yo i learn the same as the rest without the headaches, In my estimation 8 small school is a better moans cf learning than a big one. Roger Wright '67 « « ■

THE CLEANING UP OP VERMONT JUNKYARDS Up until now the beauty of our Vermont highways was in jeopardy. Our highways are being cluttered by unsightly junkyard eyesores. Lady Bird Johnson recent- ly proposed a Beautification Bill which Congress has now passed. The Bill will penal- ize states in which junkyards are less than 1000 feet away from an interstate or any principal highway. Vermont will likely have to purchase crushing machines to aid in the disposal of these cars. These machines are expensive but they seem to provide the only answer to two important problems’. (V The beauty of enr highways is greatly reduced by -sheas eye- sor S«; (2) hiphwny construc- tion i s also hindered oy the jun-cyerds- About ?0,0C0 cir'i are junked each year Vermont.

Joyce Benjamin '67 ««a» » WHY YOU SHOULD FINISH SCHOOL It is a known fact • that in this modern day and age you must have a high school diploma to make a normal liv- ing. The high school dropout who has gone at least as far as the eighth grads makes about a third to a half es much of the yearly wage3 of a nigh school graduate. And a high school graduate makes about one half to two thirds uho yearly wage3 of a college graduate. The average wages of a high school graduate is around six to ten thousand dollars a year, a college graduate makes aoout eight to ii.ltnc.s thc'.i iand dollars a yoo.ry Grpe ndlng upon his job. Ih, higa rc-ioci drop- out. make.'- about -i.hrea to fire thousand dolUora a year...
