Serving many purposes . Gur S Period Buzz s With Activit With scarcely a moment to catch our breath, we hurriedly iam our books into our already-crowded desks. We then spend a quiet moment in prayer along with our classmates before be- ginning the day's activities. At 8:06, S period flies in, heralded by announcements over our public address system-perhaps an ingenious commercial for a future class function, sometimes tol- lowed by an admonition from our Headmaster. Close on the heels of the last announcement comes the passing bell. Flinging a library slip on our teacher's desk, or perhaps mumbling some- thing about a committee meeting, we dash into the corridor which is already buzzing with excitement. Soon, however, the confusion diminishes, meetings come to order, vocal chords be- gin working in the music room, and ambitious typists can be STUDY STUDY, STUDY! The school library is a very handy place to go for stu- dents who have tests to study for, source themes to do, or extra time to read. y K . iiiffsif 255 heard pounding away at their keyboards. The school library is a typical example of S periods well spent. Some of us do last- minute bibliographies for our source themes while others study for tests. The art room also paints a colorful picture as commit- tee members work hard and fast to finish decorations for one of the school's big dances. Those of us who don't leave our homerooms to take part in S period activities are by no means left out of the business of the school. As we try to concentrate on our assignments, we are forever being called upon to donate to charity drives, pay class dues, or buy tickets for school functions. Tired minds, tired feet and worn-out wallets result from S period affairs. i i 1 t , , DISTINGUISHED GUEST! ln January, M.H.S. students had the pleasure of listening to Congressman Torbert MacDonald tell of his trip to Antartica.

At the ringing of the 8:55 bell, homeroom doors fly open and M.H.S. students dash to their various classes all over the five floors of our school. Some energetic girls rush to art classes on the top tloor. Others are off to math classes on the bottom floor, but, by some miracle, we usually arrive at class on time. Be- wildered Sophomores try to explain how a triangle happens to contain T80 degrees, others learn to summarize biology films in the dark. Jaunty Juniors are put in their places by complicated shorthand transcripts and exploding test tubes.
