FRESHMAN BIOLOGY students-to-be decided to beat the fall frosts by getting a start on their required insect collections during the summer. Three months intervened between final exam¬ inations last June and the first day of the new school year, but they were such activity-filled days for most of us that they passed quickly. Many of us had the opportunity to travel, but, although we scattered from Paris to Kyoto, there were still plenty of activities in our own community — Y open houses, summer reading lists, picnics, swim¬ ming, Shakespeare at Antioch, summer jobs, and, of course, summer school. Football practice under a blistering August sun was the prelude of organized activity that signi¬ fied the beginning of regular school life. After a night at the Y’s community social, schedule cards in hand, we returned to another nine months of classes at Oakwood High School. MISS HOLIDAY, Daryl Chase, was selected from a field of thirty-six entries and chosen to be the first Oakwood girl to reign over Kettering’s Holiday at Home festivities. MISUNDERSTANDINGS OVER a series of articles in the Dayton Daily News about Oakwood’s youth and the proposed family guide finally resulted in a student picket line on Schantz Avenue. 5
