Where's my excuse-oh, I forgot that . . . Handling the matters pertaining to the attendance of about 2300 students is Mrs. Seeman who manages the attendance office, checks on cut classes and publishes the daily attendance bulletin. Have I enough credits for a major? May I change these subiects? When's our class dance? . . . It's the job of the class counselors to answer these first questions as they hold office hours in the counseling room where they guide and counsel puzzled students. The management of class parties through the years, and finally the senior commencement is the work of the class sponsors. History's my maior! Latin's mine! Who teaches Composition IV? May I be in a play? Day after day, the classroom teacher answers questions and tries to fill heads with knowledge. He answers with patience numerous questions about the subiect and innumerable ones not about it. Everything from advanced mathematics to clothing I is found in Roosevelt curricula. Consumer classes to give more practical information, and extensive ad- vanced classes for those who want to specialize are organized. MATHEMATICS-Earl E. Kirschner, Dept. Head, Landon C.

To develop individual talent and new interests, there are classes in play production, photography, sew- ing crafts, art, music, cooking, and manual training. This year because of war conditions two innovations were developed: The first was the new air-raid drills, an interruption to classroom work but a serious and necessary precaution against unforeseen attacks. Right in line with the first was the organization of First Aid classes for everyone. The most ardent students in this subiect were faculty members who had their own course. Many classes took up defense proiects and also paper drives were held throughout the semester. I got an A in Comp. Wish you were in my new history class-it's really super. Where's my C-27. Well, this is the last time I sign in--in June I am graduated. COMMERCIAL-J. E. Chamberlin, Dept. Headg Marion Candee, R. E. Leaf, Grace Melville, Flora L. Nadeau, Freda Pelz, Myrtle J.
