Visiting Classes Biology There comes a time in a biology student's life when he must bear the odor of formaldehyde and the gen- eral unpleasantness of dissecting. While some students are interested in dissecting, others have an aversion for it. Joanne Karasek and Bonnie Berro react quite characteristically as Mr. Karasek, biology instructor, points out some of the vital organs in the body of a frog. l-lorne Economics In early December pungent odors of fruit cake, cookies, and candy steal through school cor- ridors. The home economics classes are starting their annual holiday project. When the baking and cooking have been completed, the girls, in the spirit of Christmas, festively package plates of goodies for faculty members. Here we see Mary joas, joan Eimer, Faye Grignon, and Miss Loebe Wrap- ping spicy fruit cakes. Mechanical Drawing Have you ever looked admir- ingly at a giant superstructure and wondered about the origin of the design of such a build- ing?

Un Qur Campus PWR A Ever flourishing trees that shade our green campus on a warm summerls day . . . white pillars stretching to the sky, making our audi- torium dramatically exciting on concert nights . . . the complete inactivity outside the school on a quiet afternoon . . . the bustle of scurry- ing students inside , . . the slightly noticed change of our school campus from green to rust to White and back to green, marking the passing of the year . . . these surroundings will remain in our minds as vivid memories of our school days.

At the beginning of the year this little letter causes disagreement among quite a number of students as the puz- zled faces of Eileen Kichefski and joan Gunther plainly re- veal. By the end of the semes- ter this little x, now a familiar part of algebra problems, fi- nally seems to fit into a so- lution. Classes Feature Printing The hum of the presses, the sound of type sliding into position, and the odor of printer's ink-this combin- ation describes the M.H.S. print shop. Here we see two freshman boys in Mr. Woolf's class, locking forms. In actual shop experience the freshman students apply their class- room study of paper and ink, of typesetting, of proofreading, of locking forms, and of press work. Advanced Shorthand Dear Mr. jackson, reads Miss Acker as these alert sec- retaries-to-be strain to take down every word that is being read. While Patsy Bisping, Judy Gavinski, Sandy Krock, and Rosemarie Graner are taking dictation, they are com- pletely absorbed in their work. Nothing can stop the rapid movement of their pens except the sudden cessation of Miss Aclcerls voice.
