More cj Memories In the largest Spanish Class in the history of the school—we find Jack Wray in deep concentration on his favorite subject—we wonder if it is the Spanish language he finds so interesting and absorbing or the Spanish women. Remember the mad trips to the library the day before book reports were due and the way we poured over re¬ search material for special reports? These are incidents we connect with our school iibrary. Amid the turmoil surrounding the life of a librarian, Miss Phillips still finds time to answer questions on all possible topics. Something new has been added! Yes, something new has been added in R. H. S. and if you have been in the lower hall third, fourth, fifth or sixth periods you have probably heard the clicking that accompanies the type¬ writers in Room 5. They are something we have been trying to get for a long time and now that they are here, the students are taking advantage of the opportunity offered them. The teachers, who are students from the Business Education Department of the College, are in¬ structing the boys and girls in how to become good typists without “hunting and pecking.” For those of us who dare to explore the field of higher mathematics, the one semester Solid Geometry class offers a welcome opening. Here the boys learn all the secrets of solid figures. They resort to polyhedrons, prisms, cones, and spheres as means of practical applica¬ tions to life situations in estimating areas and volumes of figures. This course is acceptable in any college and is emphatically advocated for future engineering students. David Branch and Bobby Foster with their instructor, Miss Fithel Roberts, seem to be able to hold the interest of all the senior boys. Where could all the girls be while this interesting subject is being presented? We wonder. [ 10 ]
