McNeil enact the wedding icene from Thorton Wilder's play, Our Town, in an English III class. P a p e rb a c k books, themes, and s p e e c h e s continually engulfed every conscientious student who tried to meet deadlines and pass his required course in English. During the junior year an emphasis was placed on American literature and in the following year the senior studied the origin and de ve lop me nt of the language itself. The typical junior with notecard in hand could be seen in the library searching for references. Being vigilant so as not to be guilty of plagiarism, he spent many long hours p r e p ar i n g his well-written term paper. Reading vocabulary books, studying David Cooperfield, tracing the growth of the English language, memorizing lines of poetryz . .all were on the agenda that faced the senior as he began English IV. Whether he planned to further his education or begin work at the close of the year and his high school activities, the senior knew he was emerging with a well-rounded background in English- the language, the authors, the literary works, and an appreciation of his her- itage.

in Modern Development Linda Smith and Carolyn Kincaid found reference b o ok s, a type- writer, and India ink necessities in preparing the plant and animal classification system. Mr. joseph F. Oliver M. A. , A. S. T. C. Chemistry, Physics As long as man has been on earth, he has studies himself and his environ- ment. His curiosity led him first to determine his order and then to try and explain why there was such an order. As the science instructors at Hudson pre- pared the ir lectures and experiments, they trusted that th e y could originate more curiosity so that s c i e n t i fi c re- search and discoveries would continue in the minds of their pupils. Students in general science classes were ctu'ious and asked many varieties of questions that arose in every aspect of their lives. They gained an important knowledge from their classroom work and from participating in many experi- ments. Aristotle and Linnus became famil- iar names as sophomores searched for leaves, insects, and then attempted to classifythem by their biological names. The night before the deadline for these collections was somewhat hectic. There was always a missing bug and the dis- covery that a spider was classed as an Arachnida rather than Insecta. Physics and chemistry were advanc- ed science courses. Physics dealt with p h e n o m e n a which pertained to all classes of m atte r as long as they re- mained free of chemical change. Chemistry dealt with matter in the world, its makeup, and how this matter was constructed. From these c l a s s e s came students who were enriched with a better under- standing of their daily environment, human behavior, and universe. .19 These hands diligently performed the dissecting of the frog which was a long awaited dread of sophomores.
