OU R LOYAL CU STODIAN S Someone must have the task of picking up after six hundred students, sweeping, dusting and keeping the classrooms and halls shipshape, maintaining the grounds, rolling the lawn in spring, cutting the grass in summer, raking the leaves in fall, and shoveling the snow in win- ter in the early hours before school begins. This big job is performed by those good nat- ured men you see pictured on the right. Read- ing from left to right they are: H. McLauchlin, C. Hobel, H. Fisk, C. VVetzel, H. Niles, VV. Krick. Thanks to this group of good scouts who are responsible for our comfort the whole year around. DRIVERS' EDUCATION Danger ahead! Beware! Travel at your own risk! Here comes the Drivers' Education Car! This new course has been added to the curriculum in Sturgis High School and is open to any student who desires to learn the why and how about correct driving practices. The course is taught by Robert Finlay and Harold Bowdish, who took a course in Driv- er's Education themselves and are well-quali- fied teachers. This course is a very good thing, as it offers an education which, in this day and age, is almost a necessity for survival. The course consists of a series of ten lessons which are followed closely. Each lesson must be success- fully completed before the student is allowed to go on to the next. Drivers' Education is a course designed to last for a six-weeks period. The first trial of the course proved so successful that it will be offered at the beginning of each six-weeks period for the remainder of the year. s. if School In Session 3 K 1.

School In Session THE STUDY HOUR VVhen the warning bell sounds at the be- ginning of each school hour the crowd which has gathered to pick up books, or perhaps to chat a minute in G. S. R. with that special friend, disperses and off to class trudge those for whom that bell has meant another class. YVhen the smoke had cleared and quiet was once more reigning on the day on which We took the above pictures we found this group busily at work. For them another General Session Room hour had begun. Now donlt let the above picture deceive you, dear reader. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boyu, is an old adage which is also practiced daily in G. S. R. But seriously this room is the one set aside in which we students are to do our studying under the supervision each hour of some mem- ber of the faculty. TH F LUNCH HOUR Ting a ling, ling, l-i-n-gl I There goes the bell. lt's ll :ZO by each class room clock. Out of my way, pal. VVhe1'e am I going? YVhy, down to lunch, There's a mad rush down the corridor, down the stairs we go, around the next turn on one foot, through the gates and-puff, puff, puff. VVe made it! VVe,re first in line. lve? By we, we mean those three lucky guys whose pictures you see to the left with those loaded trays. Theylve made it again. Look at those trays, will you, heaped with that delicious food which the girls in the picture above helped prepare. Ah, yes, friends, 11 :20 by the clock is wel- come news for us all.
