Attending Lectures The buzz of wood saw and the odor of sodium bisulfate herald in the new year's classes. From the gym to the science lecture room, classes are in full swing soon after the beginning of the year. While the incoming freshmen get a strong taste of high school grammar, the seniors and iuniors receive in- struction on great literary works. Every student tak- ing a math course discovers once again how much one can forget over the summer, and searches for a student in a more advanced course to help him out. Strange, foreign sounds drift from the top floor language labs, where students try to master simple conversational skills. ln the art department, dexter- ous students perfect their skills in many different fields. The gym classes offer physical challenges to all freshmen and energetic upperclassmen. So whether the student's interest be music, business practices, home economics, or ROTC, Howe's enthu- siastic teachers aid the student in the development of skills in any field of endeavor. The foreign language lab is a great help to many students. The lab aids in pronunciation with the use of tape recorders. Building coffeetables, steptables, cabinets and cedar chests keep the boys busy everyday during woodshop.
