r P^e 8 THE GRYPHON (Bib f 0iiC!A dui/foKdb Have you noticed anyone missing in the halls lately? Probably not, since it’s a mira cle to get from one class to another without being torn a- part, bet English IIX andJour- nalism-N students have noticed that one friendly, familiar face is missing: Mrs. Williams’. Have you ever taken an apti tude test for a job and discovered tliat you’ve forgotten how to add and multiply? The Juniors will soon be get ting their class rings. But al though they have worked for e- leven years to earn them, they will give them to their boy- or girl-friend almost immedi ately! Did you ever stop to think that with a student body 1500- strong, we could put into effect almost any policy that we wanted, if only we would pull together. Congratulations to the Jun iors who suffered through not only the PSAT but also the NMSQT (National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test) on Saturday morning, October 23. Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. - 3:05 p.m. seems like an eternity. But isn’t it mirac ulous how fast 3:30 - 10:05 p.m. passes? Yet it’s the same amount of time. And don’t Sat urday and Sunday slip by much faster thando Monday and Tues day? Have you evei noticed that by the time you struggle through translating a joke written in a foreign language that it is no longer funny? To show school spirit for Homecoming, Monday, October 18 was declared “sloppy- clothes-day”. But it seems that some people decided they should dress up on that day to show their school Spirit, since their normal dress was sloppy! Have you noticed the “Go Gryphs” signs attached to car antennas? We have our cheer leaders to thank for them. Thank-you, Cheerleaders! Mrs. Williamson says that when you dream in French, you really know the language. She says that she dreams in “French technicolor.” But the closest most of her students come to .that is dreaming about failing a big French test!
