We were cenfawed lm t, excited +?,.ig?i, 7 ,,v ,:! Before homeroom and before fifth period the bookstore is open, providing a place where students can buy every- thing for their school needs, for less. There is almost always a line of stu- dents patiently awaiting their turns, and occasionally Miss Anderson, who is in charge of the bookstore, must help out. At any time during the day, whether they're busy or very busy, the ladies in the administration oflices can be de- pended upon for helpful and polite answers to almost any problem. The ladies are seldom left alone to do their work, but are constantly answering students',' teachers', or visitors' ques- tions.

with it the fi:-At day of Aclwol og,-H A daily gathering place is at the lockers. Each morning finds a group at the center stairs of the three fioors, the group membership changing slightly from year to year. This year the tradition of the lockers was broken with a new ruling from the ofiice, say- ing that all lockers shall be assigned according to the location of the home- rooms. At the beginning of the year many students came to school only to find their locks had been removed for being on the wrong lockers. But once habit is broken, it is soon forgotten. As the day begins and ends students pass through the main lobby beneath the tower. This lovely and impressive part of the school is seen and frequently used by the community, also, for the various programs which are held in the auditorium. An often heard phrase is, I'll meet you at the tower en- trance.

and glad tv 6e Mak. The Jackson High cafeteria can be commended for the quality and quan- tity of food which is sold each noon. Room 25 is filled with studying, talk- ing and laughing students from high school and Junior College. Because of the great number of students who use room 25, or the Social Room, during the day, it is a favorite place to put campaign posters. The tables and chairs can be cleared out or pushed aside for dances and dinners, and the court just outside the Social Room is used for the spring and early fall parties. Some students study in study hall. But mostly students use room 225 for gossiping, just talking, laughing, throw- ing paper wads, and combing hair. In the morning study hall is used for a homeroom, and at noon students are free to come in to study under the more strict teachers, or to enjoy their friends under the other teachers. Gen- erations and generations of names are etched into the desktops for posterity's sake. FUI fir 7
