There is no better way to relieve the frustrations that occur while sitting still than to move a little — or a lot. Pretend it ' s a teacher, pretend it ' s a student — a tennis ball will stand it all without a whimper. The athletic field allows plenty of room for scream- ing, and no one will object. Take the initiative and improve your body as well as your mind.

When students take part in their classes, a learning experience be- comes much more than an impersonal lecture. By explaining one ' s views, asking guestions, and lis- tening to other students as well as to the teacher, the student can find an excit- ing process instead of a mere acceptance of an- other ' s ideas. As a result the girl can guestion and become stronger in her own ideas and under- standing.

Personal initiative is the one factor that singularly determines what each will make of Harpeth Hall. In this year, the combination of activ- ities that went on were as numerous as the students in every grade. No doubt, each girl has evolved her own viewpoint on the events of 1973-74. But by sharing our viewpoints and our minds, we produced a unigue series of happenings that occupied one year of time.
