STUDENT INTERVIEWS Question: What do you think you are gaining out of high school? Question by: Faye Swope. Answer by: Audrey Ax. a Junior. Answer: I believe that next to the knowledge I gain from textbooks. self- confidence and an understanding of human nature are the two most important things I'm getting out of high school. is Pk Pk Question: What constructive change would you make over here if you could, for the betterment of the school? Question by: Phyllis Cunningham. Answer by: Reba Cline, a Senior. Answer: I think we should have a school cafeteria so that the students from the country could have hot meals at noon. The students who ate in this cafeteria could take turns planning and serving the meals. This would give them ex- perience which would probably be valuable in later life. ek ek elf Question: What was your biggest thrill or kick in high school? Question by: Marian Greenwell. Answer by: Bill Downey, a Senior. Answer: Why, ma'am. I got my biggest kick in M. C. H. S. upon the gridiron. Yep. one day I was playin' a hard game against some rival team when it seems as if I missed a very aggressive opponent who was charging through the line with the greatest of ease. Then Coach Powers yanked me from the game. And I'm telling you for a fact-he answered your question. Ik Pk Pk Question: Do you think that M. C. H. S. should have home rooms all the time? Question by: Marjorie Ax. Answer by: 'Frances Nelle Beabout, a Senior. Answer: I think it is more convenient to have an assembly rather than home rooms because the library is handy when references are needed and if one study is finished in a period we have our books in our desk ready for use, thus preventing a waste of time. 4: ,F X Question: What classmate do you think most likely to succeed? Why? Question by: Joan Devlin. Answer by: Robert Ryan. a Senior. Answer: I think Marjorie Ax is the most likely to succeed in the Senior Class. I believe she will succeed because she is serious and thinks things through to the end. She works when it is time to Work, but when time comes to play, she plays just as hard. ak 4: X Question: What do you aim to do when you get out of school, and why? Question by: Mary Hardway. Answer by: Henrietta Kannmacher, a Junior. Answer: I want to be a History or an English teacher. Teaching holds a fascination for me. I feel I would like to teach either of these subjects because I enjoy them more than any of the others I have ever taken. I like to be near boys and girls and would like to deal with them all my life. The Blur Streak-Page twenty
