Clyde is modest about his achievements achieve-ments and often downright shy in discussing them. I hope all this sejiousness doesn't paint the picture pic-ture of a dull boy for Clyde is not dull! He has a sense of humor that laughs at himself more often than not. When a subject begins to get difficult Clyde can perk it up with one of his applicable sayings. This senior lists his favorite classes as office practice, Spanish, and Seminary. Clyde is proficient in both type and shorthand. He is working toward a 60-word pin in shorthand. Clyde plans to become a teacher, as is his father. He will attend the BYU next year to begin his training. train-ing. With his good studious attitude, atti-tude, blended with fun and good will, Clvde will assuredly make an interesting teacher. -SALLY JOHNSON 7.500 Read It In The CHRONICCE KRISTIN TALBERT Kristin Talbert is, as a member of the faculty put it, "Quiet, but a lot on the ball." This senior girl is fun, very considerate of others' feelings, and willing to work. There is something very friendly about her. Mr. and Mrs. Dale H. Talbert, her parents, should be very proud of Kristin. She takes school for what it really is, an institute of learning. This teen excels in all classes, but she is exceptionally good in math, her main interest. During her high school she has taken geometry, Algebra Al-gebra II, Trigonometry, sets, and is now in her second course of calculus cal-culus all through Temac, a program pro-gram in which "a student works and piogresses alone. Aside from math Kristin enjoys horses, walking, and knitting. Many people comment about how beautifully she knits. At school Kristin is a Seminary officer and,' of course, her favorite classes are' calculus and physics. When Kristin graduates she plans' to study math at CSU, training in1 education.

One of my favorite habits is that I always put off until tomorrow what I should do today. I believe this is a universal habit ha-bit and there really isn't a cure for it. But we who persist in this constant putting off always have good intentions. We constantly resolve re-solve to do better, and we may for a while but we can't quite kick the habit. In high school this habit seems harder to eradicate than it was in earlier years because there are numerous things to put off doing such as: history, algebra, English, and biology. There are so many more important things to do first and it's lots easier to put them off, unless of course, you flunk out and ha'e to make up work plus doing a little more for extra credit.
