Top High School Honors

the country's top scholarships.
Credit for Walter Johnson's
winning streak, the principal
says, goes to a combination of
exceptionally good students and
good staff. School morale is I'M
usually high, he feels.
Gregory's personal explana-
ton for this is that the tough
days which the school lived
through at its beginning cement
ed the school spirit.
Walter Johnson students and
teachers were housed at B-CC for
the first month of the 1856 school
year. In October they moved into
one wing of the uncompleted
building and for m on t h S were
without cafeteria, gymnasium, Ii
brary, etc.
Living through the difficulties
without gripping or complaining
also made a strong bond be-
tween his students, Gregory says,

rates are based partly on 10
cents per quarter mile whereas
meters were set to operate on

Walter Johnson, the county's
youngest high school, opened in
October, 1856, is fast becoming
serious threat to the older
schools leadership in scholastic
achievement and athletics.
The number of prizes Walter
Johnson students have won this
year is quite startling for a two.
year-Old school.
Henry c. Gregory, the schools
principal, proudly points out that
beauty, brains and Drawn have
all been recognized in the honors
bestowed on his students.
In the Miss America beauty
contest, not only was a Walter
Johnson girl, Roberta Page,
elected Miss Silver Spring. but
another student, Joan Barnhill,
was runner-up.
It's football team is number
one champion in the metropolitan
area having remained undefeated
for the two years of its existence.
Since education is, after all,
the primary purpose of the
school, Gregory is proudest of all
of the high quality of his
scholars.
There is young Ed CAM, the
mathematical genius, who shared
the grand prize at the Montgom-
cry Science Fair with Robert
Stephens of B-CC and then went
on to a win a second prize in the
National Science Fair at Flint,
Mich.
Two of the three county pub
lie school students who won Ma
tional Merit Scholarships are
Walter Johnson's David French
and Donald Olivier.
Olivier and Michael Hobbs
were two of four county winners
in the National Honor Society.
This, Gregory describes as zone
of the toughest competitions in
the county" and places these
boys in the 1929 percentile for
