Courtir CHILDREN SHOULD BE SEEN/| were not given at the end of the TO SPEAK FREELY!” By Barabar Diaz It has been. sai, i that “Children pone or — and not heard.” But a few weeks ago Civics Class 12A (professor in charge, Mrs. Bond), and eS part of the student body of Key West High School, have altered that to “Children should be seen to speak freely!” It all began one day in the third period class when we were deciding upon our next six-week plan of work. Mrs. Bond was giving us a choice of selecting our own plan of work of being assigned a lesson. Naturally, we decided to make our own selec- tion. The class unanimously de- cided that debates of controver- sial questions would .be very in- teresting and exciting. Thus, two weeks’ later, our new assignment went into effect. Our first debate was based on the very touchy subject, “Is Com- munism a Better Government than Democracy?” We all picked our committees and I stated that I would be a Communist sympa- thizer (for the debate only!). My colleagues and I collaborated on our material and were very hap- py to be defeated. : Next day our class discussion was, “Should We Rearm Ger- many?” Yes! There I was again, rearming Germany allover the place. This also proved to be a futile task, as well as.a mistake. As I had been called “Red” the day before, now I was “Lover of the Fatherland.” On the following day we were all prepared for “Should 18-year- olds Be Allowed to Vote?" You can certainly imagine our quiet discussion, considering that most of the students are male and range fr 17 to 18 years of age. After that, we found ‘ourselves faced with! the ‘problem of “Ré*| arming!;Japan"—as if we could make our minds about what the rest of the country cannot decide. #owever, before that one could b@ completed, the bell rang, Japan will have to wait, awhile. This is a rough idea of our past six weeks in Civics 12A and I must say we had the most en- joyablessix weeks of school. As for Mrs. Bond, she has survived beautifully!

CAREER PROJECTS FOR NINTH GRADERS By Ray Winkle .. . Career projects have ,been the six-weeks’- assignment for the ninth-grade social studies class taught by Miss Sidney Anderson. Many different careers were chosen by. the 24 members of the class. Some of them were those of nurses, teachers, reporters, FBI agents, doctors, engineers, business managers, lawyers, and flyers. The students prepared an all-inclusive booklet containing the training needed for prepara- tion in their chosen fields, in- formation about their careers, and illustrations depicting acti- vities and material which one would expect to encounter in the profession.

The answer’s very simple, and one you ought to know before you investina car. The fact is that engine “improvements” happen every year ... but a basically mew motor car engine is a very rare thing. And FirePower is the most basic new development since Chrys- ler introduced high-compression in 1924! To get to the heart of the matter, just go to the heart of the engine . .. the combustion chamber where the spark fires gas into power. Here Chrysler brings you something no car has had till now ... a Hemispherical combus- tion chamber ... the only perfect and ideal combustion chamber in any passenger Car. Here the same amount of gasoline delivers vou ‘im UAT RT AL a8 Finest engine ever put in an automobile far more energy than it could in any other car, What this means to the man at FirePower’s wheel is impossible to tell you till you take that wheel yourself. FirePower’s 180 horse- power can outperform any other engine on the road, even on regular grade gas. Remember, too, that Chrysler now offers the wondrous road-ease of new Oriflow et absorbers with twice the shock-absorbin power of any others... and the exclusive safety and delight of Hydraguide power steer ing* which takes four-fifths of the work out of ‘steering!
