Beside the inner and outer offices is a clinic which serves not only as a first aid room, but also for such purposes as eye tests. Science students are impressed with the $12,000 lab and its adjoining dark- room. Study halls are held in the cheerful library which has a large capacity for many new books.

STUDENTS ENTER NEWLY-BUILT ADDITION Freshmen Carol Moon, Anita Moore, and Di- ane Merckx cover locker door with pictures. Since the school is a township school it is known to some as Jackson Town- ship, but in sports and to most people it is Roanoke School. Regardless of the name it is a fast-growing institution. Five years ago, within the P.T.A., the steering committee, composed of Bob Ferrel, chairman, Charles Hinton, Mrs. Kenneth Eisenhut, and Bob Welker, worked to arouse the community to ex- pand Roanoke High School. Soon, par- ents, teachers, businessmen, and officials met to discuss, plan, and dream. In the spring of 1957, under the plans of archi- tect Albert Heeter, the Bultimeir Con- struction Company began the $121,0 00 addition.

Whether a school day has its begin- ning with the old alarm clock or Moth- er ' s call, it ' s off to school by bus, car, or on foot, and often with one eye shut. The fog is cleared (or should be) by first period class. Classes range from recita- tion and tests to group discussions or study periods. Between classes is a five minute break for brief chats, rushing, locker visits, or paint jobs for the girls. After lunch, either in the cafeteria or downtown, there is a relaxing time for walking the halls, talking, perhaps scan- ning the bulletin board which always has something interesting, or watching an intramural game in the gym. Terry Smith receives first aid treatment from Mr. Hinton in the clinic. LIVING AMONG FRIENDS, WORKING DAILY ASSIGNMENTS Fads this year were D.A. ' s, flat tops, French rolls, initial chains, bulky knits, Perry Comos, leotards, senior skirts and slacks, desert boots, and trench coats.
