STUDENTS STUDY BIOLOGY X ~ ■inerM*** ■ u ', Decatur high school students get a first-hand view of life in the study of biology. Here, Roger Fuelling shows Jack Daily pictures in his biology book about the organs and nerves which make up a frog. The biology class, taught by William Journay, is now studying the frog, which is easily available, and can be dissected right in class by each student.

The students, here are proud of the way you! (Spartans) play-! ed that game] with Geneva, so keep up the good l work fellows and be victorious ov-. er Ohio City Saturday night 0. K. !

—M.P.H.S.— Tails of mice, heads, of sparrows, feet of crows. Whoa! What s going on here? Oh, it is just Mr. Crisp with his F. F. A.’s. Each specimen counts so many points. The boy with the most points gets a ticket to a Zollner Pistons’ game. Good luck in your scavenger hunt, fellows! —P.M.H.S.— It seems as though “Mr. Gold” is visiting the teachers at Pleasant Mills. The students who have Mr. Monroe for a teacher were honored in having Rev. Kirtpatrick last Friday. His presence was appreciated and the students wish him back again. —P.M.H.S.— The junior class wishes to express its appreciation to those who helped them handle the concessions at the county tourney. A big THANK YOU goes to all who have helped them to make that important class’ trip possible. —P.M.H.S.— Speaking of concessions, every-; one believes that Donald Colter and Gary Shoaf will never look popcorn in the eye again. Honestly, those guys have popped corn until it ran out of their ears! They did a good job so please help relieve their suffering by not mentioning "popcorn”. —P.M.H.S.Hey J-E-L-LrO eaters! Are you having trouble keeping your cupboards filled with your favorite dessert? The sophomores will help you solve your problem and solve their own too. Be a sport and let them in when they knock on your door. -M.P.H.S.— ; > A new member is welcomed into the band. She is Carolyn Luginbill with a baritone horn. Also, a new bases drum has been added. The colors of the prize drum are grey, white and black. Janice Smith, the beater of the drum, sure is proud. - P.M.H.S.— Since the roads haven't been up to par, the driving instructor hasn’t taken his class out for lessons very often.

now, though. —P.M.H.S.— Juniors, have you studied the Time Magazine? This is just a reminder for the big “history in the making” Quiz, Friday. —P.M.H.S.— Tuesday the elementary grades, juniors and semi or high schpol students assembled to see motion pictures. There were two films shown, “Vacationing Wanderland” and, “Jerusalem, The Holy City.” Thank you, Dick Johnson, for running the projector. —P.M.H.S.— We, Kay Van Over and.Marabelle Wolfe are going try to fill the place of Kay Archer, who did a fine job for Pleasant Mills. It is our desire, for the pictures of both of us to appear, but due to space it is impossible. Kay will do the job of reading my writing typing the reports and being an encouraging friend while I unscramble the sound waves echoing from the halls of good ole P.M.H.S. —P.M.H.S.— Please be patient for this is our first column, we will try to improve. —P.M.H.S.— ADAMS CENTRAL HIGH By Barbara Flechter

Hurry, hurry, i hurry! Get yours now'! The ■ theme of the; “Big Top” has! invaded Central i because it’s Gazette subscription buying time for semester! s u b s c r ib ers. Morning inter-1

com apnouncemfents madte their Sts yesterday, and will continue until next Wednesday, to give the homeroom captains a chance to boost their owii rooms to hundred precent clubs — and treats. Besides the intra-room competition, homeroom pilots are challenging each other in boosting their own total subscription sdles. But it isn’t all fan fare and posters that are behind the campaign. Just hear a Gazetter’s salestalk! A weekly four-page newsheet about, and by, Central, for 17 issues (with two “specials,” which are still under the press’s hat, and one Easter extra) can be bought for 50 cents. It’s a real value, they declare since single copies sell for 5 cents each. —A.C.H.S.— Not just for school-goers, Gazettes are meant to travel anywhere in their neat white mailing folders. The semester rates by mail are 85 cents. Gazetters day, “It’s not just a hint; the — ? Gazette is recommended for anyone who

wants to keep In touch with Central — and it means you!" Why ' not take their invitation for a semester, and see? A note to the i Gazette, in care of Adams Cen- 1 tral high school, Monroe,, will secure a semester of school news, < -A.C.H.S.— Limberlost Bell has gone south for this year; fans hhve settled back to a fair normal for the time being; there is talk of “wait ‘till , next time!” Watchful waiting is still in the air: by these signs you can tell that the Adams county tourney is just over, and cer- ( tainly congratulations go to the winning Bears. It’s fun to reminisce over basketball, and the '57 tourney will provide its share of good times afterwards, too, as indicated by this paper’s “Tourney Notes” column. Thanks from Central go to the fans, players, coaches, and faculties who helped to make another tourney sup- 1( cessful. It was nice having you! —A.C.H.S.— Scarlet and Grey fans will see the Greyhounds go into action tomorrow night, as the regular schedule takes over from the county tourney games. It will be a week ago this evening when patrons and players were keyed up to the big games. It was then that the Central rooters held their breath (not literally; for the gym fairly rocked with spectators’ cheers) as the Greyhounds, after popping in the first two points, fell to Berne’s Bears after clipping the margin late in the battle. Between now and the sectional lie eight titles for the varsity and second teams of coach Cable. Bryant’s Owls will be the opponents in a road game tomorrow evening. Next week holds two tussles in store, both at the Central gym: the Commodores of Decatur Catholic on Tuesday and the Gorillas of Hartford on Friday. -A.C.H.S.— Though all clubs canceled their regular meetings last Friday because of exam-end-tourney week, behind the scenes activity found the Rifle club awaiting word of their acceptance to NRA. Hoping to become a junior rifle club affiliated with the National Rifle Association, the boys were required to gather a list of references, draft a constitution, and submit all names of club members and officers, to gain membership. Two more briefing and discussion sessions with conservation officer Jack Hurst, (sponsor) Doyle Collier,, and .principal Herman E. Frantz, will precede their first marksmanship session. —A.C.H.S.— These were "the weeks” the weeks of county tourney — and the week of exams. Research for term papers and last-minute review (commonly called cramming!) ran into last period Thursday, when the finals began. All day Friday the exams continued; and with the weekend, came sessions of grading and averaging for the faculty, in order to- meet their own Wednesday “deadline.” The report cards are half completed now, and there’s a brandnew semester in Centralites hands now. It’s something to make use of! Whether or not the results of Wednesday’s report card were satisfactory, try to make this new semester beat your own — it’ll be worth it next May to make that resolution now! —A.C.H.S.— Yet not everything around A. C. has been basketball or tests; Greyhounds found time to prepare for spring, great new friends, and think special thoughts of old ones. Let’s see, there were. .. . —A.C.H.S.— “Measuring up” took several homeroom periods for 42 seniors to take one more step toward graduation. With sponsors Mary Gallivan and John Fruth, the soon-to-be-graduates took ■ height, chest, and head measure-| ment for their caps and gowns. Oh I yes: you could also hear, “Isn’t |

Rock Hudson’s card the neatest?” or “I like the one with Audrey Hepburn’s name,” or even “You can’t beat the script in Grace Kelly’s name.” Os course, those were the seniors shopping in the namecard folders. It will be about two weeks until the name cards arrive, after the order is sent in. —A.C.HJS.— Central has been thinking a lot about two faculty friends and their families of late. Veda Crist, third grade teacher, is home now from the Decatur Hospital after a tenday stay. Writing a thank-you note addressed to the faculty and pupils, she said she’d be rooting for Central in the tourney. Mrs. Crist’s address, is tyonroe, Indiana. How about some cards to show' her that we’re hoping for a speedy recovery — and return to Central! — And Central also has been specially thinking of Elizabeth Arnold, wife of Central's former coach, Don Arnold. Mrs. Arnold was moved from the Fort Wayne Lutheran hospital to the Cleveland city hospital last week. Centralites received the story erf her transfer first hand via the intercom system and radio station WOWO last Tuesday morning. It was good to hear about the job the Military Air Transport Service and the National Polio Foundation teamed to do so that she would be able to have additional polio therapy. —A.C.H.S.— Taking a look into the classrooms now, there is to see. . . . Speech class members waiting to take their thirty-second cue from Miss Imogene Beihold, as they go into a round of impromptu speaking. A slip of paper containing the pupil’s name and a topic was to be the speaker’s sole help, besides the thirty-second interval he could take to think out an opening sentence. Readying to talk for two minutes without preparation stumped some who had subjects such as “fashions,” “cars," or “friendships,” and took some fast thinking. Even after long seconds of groping for the right words, or rattling off on tangents, on the pupils’ part, the general reaction was that “It keeps you thinking fast!” —A.C.H.S. — As the home economics department embarks on the new semester, there’s a lot of planning being done for advanced projects. Second semester study for the frosh girls is good grooming, which will lead later on into making dresses for a clothing unit. Sophomore home nursing, corresponding in the curriculum to boys’ health, will occupy the tenth graders, while senior cooking lab is already seeing complete dinners being concocted. Family relationships will be the next topic for the seniors, and this part of their home ec course will last from 2 to 3 weeks of this grading period. —A.C.H.S.— More contests have the FFA department in high gear, for February 6 and the big chapter contest at Urbana is not far away. In addition, there have been the entomology contest to prepare for, and state farmer nominations to be sent in to the judges. Advisor Martin Watson and senior Phil Moser, and juniors Richard Hirschy and Richard Meyers met their nomination deadlines this week, in hopes that these pupils will be chosen to receive the state farmer degree at a state FFA convention March 28 through April 1, to which the three boys will be delegates. Entomology specialists Tim Ringger, Larry Foreman, Jimmy Brown, and Phil Gerber are receiving to represent Central at the county 4-H-FFA contest two weeks from Wednesday, on February 6. —A.C.H.S.— , Latin at A. C. doesn't confine itself to Mrs. Glen Stucky’s ten i pupils; if you pass through the i gym corridor during activity perI iod on Mondays or Tuesdays, you

INSIDE OF FROG STUDIED aj E Pamela Walters shows a frog with its insides removed, while Jay DeVoss holds the stomach. All the organs of the animal are removed for study.

may hear the melody “adoramua Te.” With the help of several Latin and chorus members, director Don Gerig, and the 63 voices are polishing up the Anglo-Latin interpretation of this song. The why and wherefore of this concentration on “motets” and spiritual-can be seen on the music blackboard. Coming up within the next few months are appearance at several local churches, where the group will present a piano-voice arrangement of the Doxology, and spiritual including “Soon-a Will Be Done” and “Jacob’s Ladder." —A.C.H.S — “Start 1957 by Reading One of Central’s New Books" is the library’s suggestion to study hall bookworms. Waiting lists for books such as “Practically Seventeen," and “Susan Cornish” showed that Central was eagerly waiting to take advantage of the book-jac-ket display’s reminder! Before the new books were put into circu; lation, they were arranged on the built-in shelves back of the checkout desk, so that pupils could sneak a preview of the books. —A.C.H.S.— At Central's first chapel of 1957, the Rev. Willis Giehart of the Monroe Methodist church pointed out the value of having a real purpose, a sense of “being sent" in
