FRI., MAY 11, 1962 ROGUE NEWS PAGE THREE Typical Day In Biology Classes "All right, we have to get busy because today I'm going to give a lecture on the heart and cir culation," said Mr. Johnson to his fourth period biology class. The day of the lecture was April 19. Instead of having their minds on the lecture, most of the stu dents were more interested in observing a little bird that had been brought inside half-frozen. "Mr. Johnson! Mr. Johnson!" exclaimed Lynne Jameson. "What's the matter with the poor thing? It's legs are twitching and every thing." "Oh, I guess it's dying or some thing," replied Crystal Ruth non chalantly. Further discussion was interrupted by the tardy bell and the students scurried to their seats before Mr. Johnson could mark them tardy. When Mr. Johnson left the room for a minute, the girls hurried back to the bird's cage to see if the bird was still alive. Yes. the bird was still twitching. When Mr. Johnson returned, the lecture began. The sopho mores learned several interesting facts. For instance, there is a dog running around somewhere in the United States that has a plastic heart and there are several people in the U.S. that have only Honor Society Elects Officers National Honor Society, Ash land Senior High, Alpha chapter, has elected the following officers for 1962-63: President, Jim Lamb; vice-presi dent.

This is all very in teresting, but what has it got to do with the . human heart and I circulation? After digesting such terms as tricuspid, auricular - ventricular, and inferior vena avca vein, the students saw a pickled beef heart. That is, some of the students saw the heart. A few of the girls re fused to look at it. After all, they had just eaten lunch. Finally the bell rang. Thank goodness, the periods were short ened today!

School Tries New Lunches As an experiment, a new pro gram has been started in which a la carte lunches are being served in the cafeteria. Until now, class A lunches, prepared at Lincoln Jr. High, have been served at the high school. Class A lunches are meals with certain amounts of food, partly provided by a government subsidy, planned to give each student a balanced diet. Because students have not approved of the old system, the administration plans to try the new way until school is out. If the p an is though to be satis factory, the program will be cont inued next year.
