18 THE HIGH SCHOOL HERALD A Driver’s Training Course, under the direction of Mr. Ernest Weeks, was pro¬ vided for students of sixteen years of age or over. Thirty-two students took the course. Twenty-one of these students passed the written examination. Fifteen out of seven¬ teen students passed the road test. A dual control car was provided for this course by Jack Quagliaroli. Because classes had to be held in the gymnasium for part of the year, not very many assemblies were held this year. Recently two very interesting motion pictures were shown. After reading the list of school activities, you can see that the school year has been a busy one.
