1 . K Despite conditions characterized by overcrowded classrooms and inadequate instruction space, Hamilton High's scholastic standards remain at a high level. Our cur- riculum stresses sciences to a greater ex- tent than in the past. For laboratory work the biology rooms will be larger and have better lighting and equipment. Similar im- provements will be made for the benefit of future typing classes, and art students three years from now will find more display and storage space than is provided for at the present. 'seeks eww . Improvements in office accommodations will include more space for first-aid facili- ties. Under the conditions now existing, the nurse is hindered in her work. Top right: The health of students is important. For this reason, the nurse is an indispensable member of the high school staff. The nurse's office, although crowded, contains all the facilities for practicing first aid. Our school nurse, Mrs. Grant, is shown in the picture bandaging Shirley Moe's wrist while Ann Stitzel looks on. Overcrowding Causes Difficulties Bottom: For those students who would rather not carry so many books home every afternoon, the study halls in the cafeteria and larger rooms provide the opportunity to finish some homework at school. In the picture below, iuniors Carol Colwell, Sandy Kalberer, Joan Getz, Joan Brown, Nannie Horton, Gerry Wyatt, Barbara Kroeger, and Betsy Martin study in the south lunchroom as Miss Gilroy and Mr. Cahill supervise.

Homecoming week end is always an exciting one for Hamilton High School Students. From the Homecoming assembly on Friday at which the Queen and her court were presented until the Homecoming game on Satur- day, school spirit reached its peak forthe year. Barbara Baker and her committees erected the im- pressive stage decorations for Friday's assembly in blue, white, and silver, and each homeroom was dec- orated according to the theme of Homecoming, Room 209 was this year's winner, featuring the attractive Alice in Wonderland designed by Lois Norcross and Mike Melhuse. Let's Shoe the Wildcats! This was the Theme of the Girls' Athletic Association float. This float, one ot the many elaborate floats in Hamilton High School's Homecoming parade, was constructed by student members of the club. The parade to the Athletic Field on Friday evening included six floats, and a special float for the queen and her court. At the game following the parade, 8,000 spectators watched as Springfield's Wildcats tied the score in the last 8 seconds. The queen also reigned over the Homecoming Dance at which a fine floor show highlighting Barbara Golden, the Elastic Four, and music by Bob Legg's band were presented. Kissing! Our lovely queen, Gayle Steigeg receives the traditional kiss after her coronation, a lovely salute to a lovely queen. Lett to right are co-captains Roger Burtraw, Bob Leshner, Queen Gayle and Neil Burtis. Ahhh! '1 it. 7. as inf fr at s.
