Science of All Kinds Holds Their Interest CaO+H,O:CaCOHJ2-well, we could go on and have an equation with several steps, but for most of us one step is complicated enough. It is because of equations like this that people join the Newton Soci- ety. Who knows? Maybe some day a present member of the Newton Society will present to the world a theory, like the one Einstein recently brought to light. fBut let's hope if he does that he puts it in language we can understand, because it would be terrible to have to look ignorant about something one of our former school-mates wrote, particularly if he had been your best friend.J Not Frightened By Bugs and Smells Page 100

Say, do you know of anything more aggravating than a break in a moving-picture film just before the final clinch? Neither do our movie operators. The hero looks deep into the heroine's eyes-the film begins to jump-it staggers on for a few yards more and then dies in total darkness. But we sit patiently and wait for it to start again, don't We? Yes, we do! We object frankly and earnestly. We speak C?J unkindly and in an uncomplimentary way of our movie operators-how are we to know that such breaks are due to careless handling of the film before it came to our movie operators or to the great age of the film? We think that we can't exist during the lunch hour unless we see the movie. Reel One!--Lights, Please Their Works Give Us Pleasure We get all excited and angry if anything goes wrong in the operating room and we don't get to see the next reel. But the boys mend the film and the show goes on. We settle back comfortably once more to read captions aloud. Sometimes the film breaks two or three times during a picture and we think we are abused. Think of the poor movie opera- tors. The boys get lots of valu- able experience from their work. Running a movie isn't the eas- iest job in the world. They have to roll the films, unroll them again, operate the machines- Lakewood High has two kinds of machines, one for slides and the other for moving pictures. Remember when Mr. Raine talked on Alaska in assembly? Well, then the boys used the machine for slides. Sometimes teachers wish to show films for their classes-Spanish, Chemis- try. History, or Latin classes. they usually are-then our movie operators help the teacher run the picture machine land per- haps earn an extra A J. In con- nection with our Lakewood High history department we have American History films shown about twice a month. Our movie operators show these movies for the 12-B's Cmaybe they hate to get up in the morning, tooj. Then, of course, at noon these boys show the movie-they are a hard working bunch. The movie operators are organized as a club. If you want hard work but valuable experience, be a movie operator!

Play Melodies and Tunes of All One, two, three, play! Let's hear the strings by themselves. All right, all together now, play. If a stranger should wander into the auditorium some day dur- ing ninth hour, he would probably hear remarks of the above nature made by Mr. Jewell, director of the orchestra. Yet again he might be greeted by the strains of Dreams of Love or some other equally beautiful piece. The orchestra alternates with the band in practicing in the auditorium, but anyone is sure to find one or the other organization there, with its members working for all they are worth, for no matter what the weather or anything else, the orchestra must go on and be prepared to play, any time and every time, any place and every place. Any member of the organization will admit that this hard work is worth it, because the orchestra was asked to play for the J unior League produc- tion, Treasure Island, besides at many other places. The orchestra, in addition, participates in the Annual State Orchestra Contest and always comes out near the top of the long list of contestants. Descriptions 1, ',-fi' f' Page 101 wax
