at the day's end, As the day progresses, the end of each class period terminates the daily schedule for many students. Books and homework materials are gathered to gether, and the departure- begins. Crowds may congregate and exchange the recent gossip, contented sweet- hearts meet, and numerous others alone, in pairs, or groups are seen trudging across the field toward the north or joining the stampede to the waiting bus facing southward or add- ing confusion to the scene by withdraw- ing their jalopies and limosines from their daily resting place. Horns blast, voices yell out the last minute farewells, feet scamper on the pave- ment, and then tranquility prevails ex- cept for the usual whizzing by of cars on Evergreen. Inside the school, however, the end of the school day marks the beginning of many extracurricular activities, or responsibilities which must be corn- pleted before the evening arrives. Many remain behind to attend a meeting, to do extra research for a project, or just to finish a discussion. The traffic to the phone booth slows down, and a few weary students wait patiently on the bench in the main office to see the as- sistant principal or a department head. ln the journalism room, a few last at- tempts are made to meet the deadline. Perhaps the Student Council is decor- ating the cafeteria for a dance while gay banter bounces back and forth. The janitors join in the fun as they donate their advice and the tools of their trade to the worthy cause. This previously crowded and cluttered roorn begins to shed its old appearance and atmosphere as elegant mobiles, color- ful flowers, and stunning decorative placards transform it into a gay, yet romantic dance hall. , -544 .f- The office becomes a center of ac- tivity as teachers collect mail, read bulletins, and check out, Much is to be done before everyone is at rest! rfgfhl' . - -rzfgm fs , fi 1 im, ti . , .rm 4 L 45 T if
