Hobart way Barbara Burke and Bill Matan reigned as king and queen at the second annual school carnival this spring. The con- cessions provided many interesting pos- sibilities for a good time. Style shows, a sponge throw, fortune telling, and “Club ’55” were a few of the many activities. The junior class party, “Moulin Rouge, provided an interesting and entertaining evening for many of the junior students. Roosevelt Gym was transformed into a small cafe complete with can-can girls and a “soda-bar” for the gay party.

But Work and Play The Room 111 is filled with busy typing students from zero hour until the end of the school day. While the typewriters are getting a work-out, many girls and boys learn an important and use- ful skill. Besides general manipulation of their machines, they find that it is necessary to be accurate at all times, to follow directions, and to use good judgment. The learning privileges that high school students enjoy daily were extended to adults during the second semester. A wide variety of night classes enabled them to brush up on subjects that had become hazy or to learn more about the ones that seemed interesting. The response that was made to the adult education program was very satisfactory, with over one .hundred enrolled the first year, and it is hoped that in the future the demand and the accommodations will be even greater.

With Old Friends and This group of freshman students pre- sents a familiar sight to many of us. New friendships and acquaintances are often made over an “after school coke,” and conversation is usually directed to hashing over events of the school day. Manfred Osterode (center), born in Tunbergo, Germany, came to Hobart High as a junior this year. He is shown here talking with Dewey Bland and Harry Todd, two of his many new friends.
