Ecarders Settle In The beginning of a new school year is a period of change and adjustment for students everywhere. Many students that board at the Academy and Maur Hill have a more than average amount of adjusting to do. They must cope with the loss of summer freedom and the binding restrictions of school life and homework. Boarders must also adjust to living away from their homes and families, getting to know a whole new group of friends, and functioning in a school that is en- tirely foreign to them. Many boarder students have to ad- just to a new country, with its customs and traditions. An action-packed Wednesday night at the Vitaya Possitmonthol concentrates on his homework. Watching T.V. is a popular pastime tor many boarders. Lunch is an important event in the life of Maur Hill students. 8 Student Life Settling in

Dancers Hit the Tennis Courts The year’s first organized social event was the annual Tennis Court games and dance, held the evening of August 28. The games included the life-saver pass, spoon race, and toilet paper pass, among others. Competitions were held be- tween the four classes, with the senior class coming out on top, the juniors second, sophomores third, and freshmen last. A dance was held on the courts after the games.
