B att'n Around — Continued from page 4 were giving up too soon on some students—especially boys, who often don't mature as quickly as girls. In fact, he suggested we should separate boys from girls so the former don't have to com- pete against girls in school classes. His opinions warrant careful consideration by school officials, especially now that SHDHS has embarked upon the three-stream system. Perhaps we are giving up on some students too soon, although unfortunately it is most difficult to gear any system to the minority rather than the aver- age. At the reunion, we spent some time looking back over the 1952 Ink-Spot. Of particular interest was the fact there were only 15 members on the teaching staff at that time. Judging from comments re- ceived, many area residents saw the editor in his TV debut at the Zurich Bean Festival, Saturday. Unfortunately the oc casion prompted some uncomplimentary comments. One chap noted he now has proof that yours truly is full of beans. The Zurich event was a "gas- tronomical" success and resi- dents of that community now appear to have been successful in getting this annual attraction off the ground. The success of most of these events depends upon the first two years, and Zurich should be able to look forward to many more successful bean festivals in future years. We also pass along commen- dation for the fine showing of the Zurich Centennial Band. This group improves every time out and must now rank as one of the best in the area. Every parade needs a band, and we imagine the Zurich group will be featured in many area parades in the future. Greenway women see Stratford play PCE. LB.
