Our fate appeared, just then, to depend on how well we mastered the tests. Two and one-half months later we went to register and obtain our books and schedules. How disappointed some of us were to find we had no classes with our closest friends! At the end of our eighth year, we had been given a subject sheet from which to choose our classes. Besides the courses available the year before, three new subjects were added to the program of studies. I suppose it was because we were more intellectual than any other class.

Wizffzem' Well, sir, it seems our only privilege has been the honor of being the largest freshman class ever en- rolled at Rochelle High School. Even this is questioned as a privilege.
