SSSSS S SSSSSSS Academic life in Iohn Burroughs School is diverse and stimulating. The sciences and humanities are recognized as interdepend- ent: so a Well-balanced program of studies to stimulate interest in the practical and esthetic aspects of daily living is the core of the curriculum. From an understanding of the general concepts of intelligent living, the pupil gradually gains a clearer insight and acquires the desire to investigate beyond generalizations. As a result of his intellectual curiosity, the lohn Burroughs School pupil is well prepared to study effectively in college and to plan his education so that he contin- ues to become an increasingly effective mem- ber of society.

47 in '42, '43 and Page Twelve El SS HISTUHY ln the autumn of 1941, the United States was forced into war by lapan. ln the autumn of 1941, the Worst storm ever to hit Florida devastated over 3,000,000 dollars in property values. ln the fall of 1941, President Franklin D. Roose- velt was ending nine years in of- fice four history teachers insist that there was another President but We are still unconvincedl. Also in the fall of 1941, the class of 1947 entered lohn Burroughs School. This was a memorable year for the United States, President Roose- velt, and Iohn Burroughs School. Not realizing the importance of such world affairs, we elected as our Chairmen, Lewis B. Stuart and Nancy Paddock, who still are part of the class. lt took the school some time to realize our capacities, but by Christmas six angelic faces were discovered among us: so Ioann Collins, Ioanne Draughon, George Fiske, lack Wiese, Ed McCulloch and George Rendleman appeared in the 1941 Christmas Pageant. Then to make things more impres- sive, in the spring elections our class elevated Dodie Conant to the Student Council. While the laps stormed Manila, we stormed our advisors, Coach Staten and Miss Damon, with questions indicative of our ever- growing interest in Student Gov- ernment. The revision of the Con- stitution Was greatly helped Cor hindered?l by some of our more interested classmates. Like previous classes we were delighted by the antics of Coach Staten's memorable Ole Olsen. As the second year of the war began, we began our second year at Iohn Burroughs. Minus Pat Bixby, we noticed the addition of Mary Roddewig, Nancy Dreyer, Ralph G i l de h a u s, Courtney Shands, Bill McCagg, and Francis Gross. This was the first year we elec- ted class officers democratically.
