llssemblg Something for every student in Hampton to look forward to is the assem- bly, presented every two weeks. Each club gets an opportunity to show its accomplishments when together with the sponsor, they conduct at least one program during the year. Some of the other features on these occasions are movies. speeches by educa- tors on English. marionettes, puppets, and other subjects. This valued tradition has been carried on for nine years and has bettered itself each year. Alternate with Home Room, Assembly has proven to be a prime institution of education. recreation, and relaxation. Assembly time gives Mr. Sarver and members of the faculty a chance to ap- peal to the student body, as a whole, on problems arising in the class rooms. on the buses, and in the halls. lf, in the next nine years, the assemblies continue to improve as they have. Hamptons assemblies will always be something of which to be proud. The 1044 Talbot

Uur Chapel Early in l94'5. a Chapel program. scheduled for every Tuesday and Thurs- day morning with a time limit of approximately twenty minutes, was started for the Senior High School students. Each of the Home Rooms has the opportunity of having full charge of the program for one week. They select songs to sing which follow the pattern of folk songs, spirituals, novelties, or songs in tribute to our service men. Introduction of the speaker of the morning, who speaks about his voca- tion which he has chosen for his life's career, is properly announced by a stu- dent. The speaker gives the students, especially the Seniors, a wide source of information, and enabled many to select further studies upon graduation. For the program. the students present small items of entertainment such as skits for advertising a coming event. singing by the Chapel Choir. a dedica- tion for a special holiday, or an instrumental solo or group selection. The programs are for entertainment only, and not to display talent. As Chapel is perhaps one of the most serious activities in Hampton. the students enter the auditorium with serious thought and light hearts. Chapel was originally started as a trial experiment, but upon its first pres- entation it was requested by the students as a regular event of Hampton. which now holds a high spot on our list of favorites.
