Stoneham High School - Wildlife Yearbook (Stoneham, MA)

The alumni of Stoneham High School, an erudite and energetic bunch, have found numerous outlets for their pe- rusal. For instance, on any given day a student may be found coverting with a peacock at the zoo, meditating at the beach or enjoying a smoke at the teacher's desk . . . while carrying a heavy load of courses in Latin, Philos- ophy. and Advanced Calculus. Group jumping sessions are very popular and enjoyed by all. Some of the students may dress a little strangely, but they are never the less accepted by their open-minded peers. We have just been informed that this page may be more fun than hu- mans should be allowed to have Cor notj, so we'Il be sneaking in other snaps at irregular intervals throughout the book. ,gif WW W m e f ,.
