Geometry Studes Fulfill Assignment With Creations Shovving Imagination

Orig inality, imagination and a few ot her qualities are obvious in some of the creative works t urned in to Miss Martha McCready, solid geomet r y inst ructQr, last week.

Befor e Thanksgiving vacation her fourth year math students wer e assigned t o make models of two of the five regular tJOlyhedrons. _

P at Harr ing t on came up with a wir e "bird cage" with a modern­istic dodecahedron (solid with 12 faces having five sides each) su s• pended in' it.

A tet rahedr on (pyramid) with t iny light s at the vertices and a

bell inside obviously is a product of Dick Buta's scientific interests.

Marilyn Cameron combined music with math to arrive at a simple but differ ent figure ma:de from i:iheet music and another wit h silhouetted musicians on wh ite backgrounds.

Time ··rells. Fate :Of ·Tln Heroes, Louisiana Lover, Crockett; Others

Elvis Presley jackets, bracelets with his picture, "I like Elvis" badges and all kinds of clothes and gadgets to appeal to his fanatical female fans are on the market.

Several years ago it was Johnnie Ray, crying and tearing down the stage curtains during performances. Then they swooned over Eddie Fish­er and Julius La Rosa in ;a slightly less violent fashion. Then the late Jimmy Dean. ,

The kiddies weren't left out. They 'wanted their clothes, their toys, even their beq , spreads and lamp­shades to be embroidered with Howdy Doody or Hopalong Cassidy. More recently Davy Crockett be­came the idol of the moment.

In the little ones it's more or less understandable, but why teenagers - including some of the 18-year­olds who consider themselves mature enough to vote?

There are all kinds of theories ex­plaining the hysterical behavior

from neurotic personality on down·. But whatever the cause, it's there,

and after the Elvis craze dies down someone else will take over.

COh is one of the moS!t injurious chemicails to human. hea-lth.

CCL• fumes attack the internal organs, damaging beyond r epair. Many _such · un­fo1,tunate cases have been cited in Mc­Call's, Radio New.s and :the Reader's Di­gest.

The spray ext inguishers ~eing solicited by the busy bees fo, Hi Tri are safe. They contain freon, a nontoxic chemical app·rov­ed for such use. Being very effective for all types of incipient fires is indicative of its · usefulness . ·

If I wer e t he ·only one · left out I'd bla me it on 1J11ys·elf, but hardly ariy of ,the gi1'ls were asked. Boys <l.11I1'1t all be ·t ha t bashful. They're just stubboi·n. ·

Most gir ls dori't bHe and even if · we aren 't a ll te.rrific dancer~s we can· ·still have a good time. That's what we go for but t he boys don'•t cooper at e. Om · they really enjoy 'themselves · "st andin' .in ' the corner watching alll the · g irls go by?"

Miss Hanna Keeps FuU-Fledged Zoo By Sandy Gray \

That old worn phrase "teacher's pet" has found a new meaning among Salem High's "animal-lover" teachers. By questioning some of them, it has been discovered where many members of the animal king­dom have found homes.

Did you .know that we practically ·have , an experienced zoo-keeper amongst us? Miss Ada Hanna, mechanica1 drawing instr.uctor, is the proud possessor of six pets with a seventh on the 1way!

Two of these are her famed . horses - . Bess, a quarter horse,

and Becky, the ·pacer who is ex­pecting a colt in March.

Miss Hanna's canine frie~d, Gill, a toy shepherd, and Sam, the 15-pound, cat, a re surprisi'f!gly g ood friends. (This cat should take up dog chasing!)

Lucky to he' alive is Lucky, the canary, who resides with Shakes­peare; a parakeet, above the door

yet,"· says Miss Hanna, giving an inkling that perhaps someday they will be.

A great day has arrived! If you bring an apple to the teac.her you are a teacher's pet, but if the teacher brings an apple to you­you are probably a teacher's pet .
