In the class rooms and begin the same
old routine. But IL isn't the same
any more You see report cards were
issued this week and some of US
don't feel so well. But you can't say
we didn't try. Why, for a whole
hour before we took those history,
English and Spanish tests, we stud
led like slaves. But seriously, we
have a mind to do it if we want to
and we will--although getting good
marks does get boring after awhile,
doesn't it, We kids who know?
As | said last week Joint meet
ing Of the Student Council and the
Student Patrol was held Wednes-

is that a person on the student patrol,

have six points every six weeks
which means he can have AS -four
points, BIS Uhrcc points,, but no

Trying TO organize a student gov

backed up by the student body is a
hard job, and credit must be given

have accomplished thus far Given a

verSity which is also part Of the
University of Virginia.
She has taught mt the Shenandoah
