Freshmen hold a very definite po- sition in Garrett High School life, and if they were Too Young to Drive they were learning the ways of high school life and how to ration their time and talents to the best advan- tage. When they become ration book holders, these freshmen will know how to make the best use of their op- portunities and will further the glory and sportsmanship of G. H. S. Everything was very different to these newcomers, when they enter- ed high school, and they were per- haps awed by what they saw and by what they were to do. Never before had they to contend with what x • — • v — 2 equals, or with how many legs a centipede has, or with the meaning of memoria teneo, but these stu- dents learned fast and have become masters of many situations. Guid- ance periods gave the freshmen a time to discuss useful topics among themselves and with their advisers. Some of these topics were: How to Study, What is Good Citizenship, and The Qualities of Real Friend- ship. Throughout G. H. S. freshmen have blended into the atmosphere of student life, and have established themselves as up and coming citi- zens. Freshman girls sold war bonds and stamps, freshman boys played on Garrett ' s athletic teams, and the band was well supplied with fresh- men. Mr. Woodcox, Miss Macklin, and Miss Haffner were sponsors of the class; and Joyce Barnes, Edwin Mor- torff, and Ned Schlosser were home room presidents. 20

In these days of gasoline rationing, A books are issued by ration boards to every one who has an automobile and who is license to drive. As A book holders, the Soph- omores are comparative beginners in high school life, but after han- dling school activities and classes for three years, the members of the class will be entitled to C books and the responsibilities and happi- nesses that go with them. Installation of officers afforded a time for the three sophomore home room groups to meet jointly. The pro- gram for the occasion was based up- on a patriotic theme and gave mem- bers of the class a chance to show their talents. Sophomore home rooms ranked first, second, and third in the total amount of money turned in dur- ing the Junior Red Cross drive held throughout the school. This is a fine showing from the underclassmen and worthy of recognition. Freshmen were treated to a skat- ing party given by the sopohomores at the Silver Moon. A good time was afforded for all and co-operative re- lationships between the classes were firmly fixed. To share the Yuletide spirit during the Christmas season, the sophomore English classes pre- sented, before the student body, a delightful Christmas program. Officers of the class are: Richard Drews, president; Gerald Johnson, vice president; Mary Lou Smith, secretary; and Audrey Lazenby, treasurer. 19

With two years of Garrett Junior High behind them, the 8 Pointers are preparing themselves for high school entrance. They have concen- trated much time and effort toward planning their high school courses, which are based on the type of study and work they wish to pursue. To these students a number of courses and subjects are available. Their choice depends largely upon the interests and abilities they have shown during previous school years. A College course prepares students for advanced training, including more mathematics, language, and science than the other courses. To acquaint students with business life, Garrett High School ' s Commercial course affords a chance for them to gain a knowledge of shorthand, typ- ing, and bookkeeping. Industrial Arts course equips boys with knowl- edge and skills in manual arts and mechanical drawing. In the Home Economics course, girls are taught cooking, sewing, and the fundamen- tals of home management. As a pro- gressive measure, the Agricultural course provides careful study of the best and latest methods of farm care, and production. Students are advis- ed and directed individually by their teachers in maki ng choices of their courses. With these years as spares com- plete, the eight pointers look forward to entering the Senior High School, where they will ration their interests not only scholastically but also socially. 21
