A bystander who enjoys character study certainly could appreciate the between-class trek. Here they come---some slowly, perhaps despondently --,others briskly, filled with ambition---some abounding in energy, run---some dart to a near by store---by nofw the crowd is thinned to a few stragglers, the last bell clangs, a handful makes a final rnad dash to keep from paying the tar- diness penalty.

Unless the weather is too violent, there is always a crowd around this doorway. F lanked on both sides by expanses of 'verdant lawn and flower beds, it is no wonder that this entrance is a favorite gathering place, especially for jun- ior high school students whose debut into the scholastic and social life of the school was prob- ably made through these very doors.

t , J, '57 Stairway of Marble The grand stairway upon entering the high school building inevitably impresses the 'visitor with its gleam of white marble. It lends to the building a certain grandeur, a certain consci- ousness of the beauty of the building which a view of the exterior alone does not. And, stand- ing at the top ofthe staircase in a sheltered arch, is a large picture of the Great Emancipator, the school's favorite immortal, his kindly face beam- ing a sort of sympathetic, understanding smile of approval upon the panorama constantly pre- sented before him.
