Driver Education I COULDN ' T RESIST knitting some booties for your new baby says Kathy Bartlett, an appreciative ex-pupil of Mr. Cargill. Aside from his three driving classes, he teaches a fifth grade class at the Daniels School. Started in 1953, the Driver Education Course, under the direction of Mr. Phillip Cargill and Mr. Anthony Guarino, provides the students of M.H.S. with an excel¬ lent opportunity to learn how to drive and to gain some essential knowledge of the mechanics and operations of the various parts of a car. Approximately one hundred seventy-five students enroll in this ten week course an¬ nually. During this time-period, they have thirty hours of observation and six hours of actual driving. Since the school has acquired one of each type of car, the pupils have a choice of either course, hydramatic or standard shift, for which they must pay $25.

These people are always ready to help with any problem from finding scenery to listening to the various difficulties of students. There is at least one custodian per floor, plus matrons.
