3. Nh, A tiresome half-hour is spent by Warrenites each semester as they complete the seemingly never- ending task of filling out schedule cards. The last day of school is filled with final exams, fond farewells, and the annual Wigwam sign'um party where the students receive their yearbooks and take a few moments to share their feelings with friends before summer vacation.

But That's Not All. For nine and a halt months, teen- agers in The indianapolis area spread Their Time among school, homework, iobs, extra-curricular activities, ball games, and dances. They spend Two and a halt days having a good Time, and The next tive days recovering. Week-ends are busy Times. Activities range from doing homework To doing unmentionables. They give students and Teachers a chance To relax and re- cover trom each other. Friday nights tind most students aT- tending a ball game and sock-hop, cli- maxing The evening with a Trip To Frisch's. While some students spend Saturday doing homework, others are found aT Their jobs, participating in school activities, or catching up on lost sleep. Saturday night is traditionally date night, but tor Those breaking Tradition, a visit To The Flame Club is often customary. Sundays give Warrenites a chance to enioy what is probably the quietest day of The week. And, students and Teachers alike panically prepare for The coming tive days. Although no students are present, the ianitors remain busy during after school hours cleaning the building and preparing it for another day. Dennis Ose, one of the top pupils in class stand- ing, makes good use of the Irvington public li- brary as he prepares notes for his term paper. Lett: Yearbook deadlines present problems as Dayna Rodewald, Janet Hillier, Mrs. Hawthorne, and Paul Neumeister rush to beat the clock. Miss Susan Merrick, a recent graduate of Warren and now a math teacher here, grades some of the many papers she collects during a day's Time.
