FOBM THE PICTURE . . . A typical study hall shows most of the students really studying. Some of the braver souls seem to be trying their lurk at talking in low tones. Stud im' is a ver im ortant iece of our D Y 1- t Y P P U picture puzzle. It IS also the hardest PICCC to fit into place. Some students go through all of high school without putting it into position. This- is why many of our picture puzzles have a blank s Jaco where studvin should be. I . g Studies take a large portion of a student's time. Most students know that studies should come before pleasure. For it is the grades they receive from this work that will decide their vocational interests for years to come. Studying doesn't seem to be too much of a problem here at U-School. Almost every student is assigned to a study hall for one period a day. There is an assigned teacher to help the stu- dent when he has difficulties. This relieves the student from a lot of work which he would have to take home. Some students forget to study until time for finals. Blaine Johnson, Janet Martin, and Carol Cason are not necessarily cramming, but they do look studious! Page niwv
