The Christmas spirit ebbed just a bit as students faced study- ing for semester tests. In 5th hour study hall, Pam Green, Kenneth Carr, and Billy Wilson studied for the mid- year exams. Study Hall: Options— Sleep, Flirt, Cut-up, or Study MA timeto study or a timeto sleep. This de- scriptive phrase by Raylene Daniels pretty well fit- ted the students' idea of an ideal study hall. An- other student, Robert Mason, agreed. He said, 11. . . iust to get away from a book, I guess. Some students tried to spend the hour by get- ting in trouble. Said one study hall teacher, Mrs. Retha Curtis, They (study halls) are usually pro- blem periods for the teachers because the study time is not used properly. It could be a wonderful thing, but the kids just cut up and act silly. However, some students did spend their time well by actually getting some studying done— whether it was of the opposite sex or a printed page is not important. The style of the study hour depended largely upon which teacher and which students were put together.Some of the study halls were relaxed and fun for students and t ea c h ers, while others re- sembled a military barracks. But, study halls were handy. As Leigh Blodgett and Rita Brown said, They sure help before an American History test! Deadlines, Delayed Issues: Journalism JOURNALISM-STUDY HALL 23
