Located on Newport Mill rd.. the $2.7 million school serves ninth, tenth and eleventh graders from 8 in the morning to 2:30 in the afternoon.

A student steering committee was selected from volunteers and worked the en tire summer (and are still own high school student govern ment and president of the state student council of his home state. (In those days he enter tained dreams of becoming a mortician.) working) on such tasks as the school constitution, class ring design, locks for the lockers and stamping of books. They have been assisting in the office, or ganizing class elections, acting as guides to the students and just about anything that needs doing. Another group of students, with rolled up sleeves, have also been helping in the new school. These students have arranged most of the furniture, stamped more books and carried hun dreds of books, and registered new students. Then there is the student body in general. Besides having to get up so early to make their 8 o'clock class, forming a pep squad, organizing school clubs and a newspaper, the students have suffered uncomplainingly the hardships of a half-built school. There weren’t even many gripes about lockers that were a week late. ‘ ' 1 "*'" F "" Preliminary Performance Pleases Judith Kennedy, 11, a seventh grade pupil at Broome Junior High School, seems impressed during her preview of a tape re corder and head set which comprise part of the newly-acquired equipment being used in the school’s new electronic library.

Thursday was Mourn Day and everyone wore black in sym pathy for the Springbrook team and the beating they were about to take. Funeral services were held after school for a poor, mis guided, Springbrook Devil who died attempting to take a foot ball from a team of Huskies. Attending the funeral were the students of Peary High, who cheered wildly as the Devil was laid to rest. Student Govern ment president, Brian Peckham, administered the last rites. Friday was Blue and White Day. and ended with a roaring, ear-drum-shattering pep assem bly. The football players were introduced to the school and the cheerleaders led the school in cheers that shook the roof. The Pep Club put on a skit depicting the Springbrook team and the horrible condition it was believed to have been in. Saturday’s festivities started at 12 noon with a car decorating contest. Blue and white crepe paper, scissors, tape, string, “Mush Huskies” signs, and laughter flew from ear to car. At 1 o’clock the bus carrying the team left for Northwood, where the game was held fol lowed by a caravan of 35 to 40 cars. Down Georgia Avenue they went lights on, radios blaring, students laughing, peo ple staring, and blue and white streaming everywhere. By 4 o’clock it was over and we knew the results. Strangely enough, we didn’t feel too bad— the glow was still there. Dr. Carter Elected Dr. Lee S.
