Homeroom teachers stood by the doors, herding in their charges be- fore the late bell. A few latecomers straggled along and tried to tiptoe into the room -hoping not to be counted late.

But there it was, and the club over our head would fall if we didn't 550444264 embryo, or examining mice, snakes, fish, and what-have-you, or maybe it was just listening. Some people went to com- mercial science and took in the factsf or tried to. For those who really had something to do in the way of reading, the library stood as a shining light.
