Ralph Prahl is intent on a weight ex- periment in physics while Mack Schrib seems engrossed in a collection of bogs. Jan. 4, 1960—We returned from Christ- mas vacation, ready to get back into the old grind. Today practice for the Senior Class play began. Jan. 14—The annual Thespian banquet was held at the Diamond Horseshoe, where new members were formally ini- tiated. Don Miller did an excellent job as M.C. The Sixteens furnished enter- tainment in a reverse of the old saying, Be seen and not heard. The sextet sang in a cubby-hole where they could be heard, but not seen. Jan. 15—All the fans from Laramie, es- pecially those who had come to Chey- enne on the bus chartered by the Junior Class, couldn't provide enough spirit to cheer our team on to victory, and, as a result Cheyenne renewed the old rivalry by defeating us. Jan. 16—The Seniors chartered a bus to Ft. Collins for the wrestling match there. Wo were surprised to find that the Lara- mie kids could make just as much noise as the Ft. Collins rooters did. Jan. 22—The first semester ended. After having tests all week, it was certainly a relief! Jan. 23—The Elks' small ballroom was the scene for Fantasy in Ice, the theme for the Senior Sno-Ball. Billie Jean Lock- hart and Dave Wensky were crowned king and queen of the dance and reigned over the fifty couples who attended. Jan. 25—Certain Senior boys exhibited their excellent taste in clothes at the Senior skating party tonight. Most of the kids really had a good time, even though some of them spent more time sitting on the ice than skating on it. Jan. 27—Report cards came out today, showing the results of our first semester's work. Jan. 28—Another first was held to- night. The faculty from Laramie High School played the faculty from Casper High School and they seemed about as good (?) as our own team. They lost. Jan. 30— Each of the three upper grades helped with the March of Dimes Drive. The Sophomores and Juniors helped distribute literature to homes. The Seniors sponsored a Buy a Litter Bag Drive, to Help Clean up for the March of Dimes. They collected $55.39 in four hours. The French classes held their an- nual banquet tonight. The students dressed in costumes and ate and ate and ate and ate. Pntertainment, in a French style, was presented. 16 This English II class is doing group work in locating, identifying, and interpretation of words and information. Varied Educational Opportunities Offered Students Basic courses in a wide variety of in- terest areas are open to the students They arc offered instruction in the fun damental courses of English, mathematics history, science, languages (French, Ger man, Spanish), in addition to commerce speech, art, shop, physical education driver's training, general business cours es, distributive education, mechanical and architectural drawing, agriculture, home economics, music (band, orchestra, vocal), and journalism. Each student chooses his own track program to identify his general goal and to give him the necessary background for his chosen life's work. Mr. Stephenson, driver's training, seems to say, Do you see that nice steep hill over there? Well, you're going to be going up it in just a few minutes. If you keep calm, you'll have nothing to worry about. Finding the idea intensely amusing, Shelby Ames sits in Journalism class and thinks about writing a sports story covering a game she's never seen.
