Soccer, vollyball, softball-- these are but a few of the sports which students learn to play and play well. In their physical edu- cation classes students improve their physical prowess. But even the physically fit are not immune to slight illnesses, and that's what the health department is around for. Under the skilled direction of two nurses and a dental hygienist most students' grievances can soon be rem- edied . Under the guidance of Miss Hulihan and Mr. Wahler of the business department, students learn business arithmetic and shorthand. And in the many shops, students learn skills in mechanics, car- pentry and ceramics. Future housewives gain knowledge in homemaking. 10

Through the Junior High, En- glish introduces us to books like Kon- Tiki” and helps us with our grammar. As Freshmen, Mr. Stritch gives us Great Expectations” to read, plus the workshop. The sophomore year provides us with the the maligned Word Power . Upon becom ing Juniors, we study for the English Re- gents. In our Senior year we relax a lit- tle with literature and composition. Classes are only one part of the scope of English however. Mrs. Miller's speech therapy helps students with speech impediments while Miss Hoover aids slow readers. for a well-informed future, That gum will cost you five cents, says Mr. Peckham as he catches another student overanticipating lunch.
