ADMINISTRATORS ESTABLISH, EXECUTE POLICIES

By discharging various duties ranging fronn curriculum developnnent and disciplinary action to coordination of extra-curricular activities, these tou r administrators ac complish their often d iffic u lt task o f conducting each school year in accordance with county policy. Another phase o f

their

responsibility

includes

communication

between students, faculty, and community. Yet, a mere listing o f their numerous duties can hardly convey the administrator's scope o f influence on Crossland's development. Their true role lies in their active interest in the student body th a t is Crossland.

COUNSELORS GUIDE STUDENTS TOWARD COLLEGE, CAREERS

The personal questions and problems o f Crossland's students were capably met by- the Guidance Depart ment. Juniors were concerned with the PSAT in the fall. That ordeal over, the realization o f college require ments prom pted action in the way o f appointments with the counselors who resolved problems and answered questions to help the student decide his future goals. Sophomores, as always, were confused last fall by their new environment, and many consulted their counselor. Throughout the year, the sophomores discussed their vocational aspirations and the obstacles to future hopes. They walked out o f the Guidance O ffic e feeling more confident and better informed. The junior high students consulted their counselor fo r assistance in schedule and personal problems. The Guidance Department has helped students understand themselves and in so doing in creased the benefit o f Crossland to the student body.

One o f the busiest places at Crossland was the Infirmary. To the domain o f our school nurse, came scratches, bruises, sprains, fractures, and other assorted ills. The minor cuts were cleansed and bandaged; emergen cies received p ro m p t attention. Handling the speech, hearing, and diabetes tests, as well as providing a place fo r ill students to come, our nurse, with a sym pathetic word fo r all, made the infirm ary the most com forting spot a t CHS.

OFFICE ASSISTANTS PROVIDE ABLE ASSISTANCE

Efficiency was the key word and the key aim o f the o ffice clerks during this year. Their duties were various and v ita l fo r proper functioning o f the school. From ad m itting late students to granting early departures, from serving as postmasters fo r the teachers' mailboxes to run ning the lost and found fo r the students, from checking on absentees to delivering forgotten lunches, they served the administrators, the faculty, the students, the guidance counselors, and all other school personnel. A newly in stituted program by which Juniors could elect to be office assistants lightened the load o f the hard-working clerks, while teaching those students in the program o ffice rou tine and procedure.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE Success In school is the result o f the coordination o f ideas and the cooperation between students and teachers. To aid the student in a successful study o f English, the English D epartm ent o f Crossland has pooled its Ideas and come up with a method o f minimizing the old transition problem. They are now using standardized grading correction

A knowledge o f the world is our key to under standing it. A t Crossland, students are learning about the world through the study o f past events and peoples. W o rld H istory students concentrated on the de velopment o f man from ancient to modern times. Their study was sparked w ith panels, the plan ning and creation o f related bulletin boards, films, and special interest projects. In geography, stu dents also studied man and his progress. This course emphasized how man learned o f the earth and how the earth affe cte d the growth of societies. In Am erican History, students studied the be ginning and expansion o f our nation. Special attention was paid to the elections, and other cur rent events. H istoriography— how historians ap proach events in th e ir writinqs— was introduced as a method o f studying the C iv il W a r. Having learned ab out the w orld o f the past and present.

CROSSLAND CONTRIBUTES TO SCIENTIFIC WORLD.

The A g e o f Discovery is not over. In sci ence, it continues as long as there are people who research, experiment, and discover; and every discovery improves our lives. A t Cross land, modern laboratory classrooms make it possible fo r future scientists to begin their careers now. A p p lyin g the skills o f dissection and observation, Cavalier biologists studied the forms o f life. In physical science, emphasis was placed on practical subjects. Students studied such topics as atom ic energy, the phys ical phenomena o f m atter and energy, and astrophysics. Juniors were given an introduction to fo r mula w riting, balancing equations, gas laws, and problem solving in chemistry. Advanced chemistry students studied qualitative analy sis. Both classes supplemented classroom stu dies with laboratory experiments and obser vations. Focusing th e ir lenses under the d ire c tio n cover m icroscopic life In bio lo g y.

MATH PROGRAM OFFERS ADVANCED, FUNDAMENTAL COURSES. Letters and words constitute one ty p e o f language, b ut there Is another kind. This other language, called mathennatlcs, consists o f numbers, symbols, and fig ures. A t firs t glance, mathematics seems to be a rather odd system o f expression, b u t as soon as one becomes fam iliar with Its Infinite alphabet, only the universe provides boundaries. To enable its students to become facile with num bers, Crossland offe red an advanced, general math course. In this subject, students increased th e ir under standing o f the fundamentals o f math, and were in troduced to algebra and geom etry. A ll students were encouraged to em ploy m athem atical reasoning. For those Cavaliers who, perhaps, plan a future In science or mathematics, courses In algebra, geometry, trigonom etry, and elementary analysis were offered. In these subjects, the most modern concepts were added to an already firm foundation o f basic mathe matics.

A language is the vehicle o f a distinct cul ture. Part o f learning any language, there fore; is an acquaintance with its culture. Crossland's Language Departm ent has made languages more meaningful and usable through studies o f the people who speak them. The Spanish classes have used Spanish in situations created by its existence as a spoken tongue. Interesting activities in a Spanish a t mosphere gave students a be tte r understand ing o f the language and those who speak it. Developing the a b ility o f speaking their language like Frenchmen was the aim o f the French students. Students studied present-day occurrences from the French standpoint, read about France in the native tongue, and re ported on French culture. The classical study o f Latin also emphasized culture through its constant link with the Roman nation.

In Industrial arts, students developed skills In the fields o f drafting, woodworking, and metal crafting. They learned to cope with problems of advancement In Industry and technology as they gained experience by learning more technical procedures, solving problems, using modern tools and materials, and applying knowledge to projects. By using equipment such as d rafting and blue-printing machines, engineering skills were practiced. Mlnl-bike production headed the list o f items to be constructed in metal shop. Band saws, sanders, and lathes buzzed, hummed, and roared, as -students undertook varied wood projects. The presence o f new equipment.

Reading— comprehension o f the w ritten page— is the basis o f all education. To help students co rre ct reading problenns and fu rther develop reading skills, Crossland offered fo r the firs t tim e this term the popular Reading and Study Skills Program. The aim o f this course, to help students develop the best reading and study technique possible, was carried out through the use o f the latest reading machines and materials. It is the hope o f the Reading D epartm ent th a t this program can be expanded to include more students in following terms.

PRACTICE DEVELOPS SKILLS IN COMMUNICATION AND TRANSPORTATION Learning the driving laws o f M aryland and driving skills were not the only aspects covered by a student in Cross land's driver education courses. The program emphasized development o f good driver attitudes as a fa c to r in ac quiring both practical inform ation and skill. Thirty hours o f classroom Instruction prepared each student fo r prac tice driving. In a new 1965 Pontiac or a new 1965 Ford, each student com pleted practical behlnd-the-wheel experi ence under sound supervision and advice. Crossland trained its students to be careful and responsible drivers.

FIRST YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL CREATES SOPHOMORE LOYALTY The members o f the Sophomore Class o f 1964-65 readily assumed their positions in the C avalier ranks last fall, choosing unity as th e ir principal objective. This inter-connection and consistency in purpose was an essential medium fo r projecting the class plans and ideas into progressive, functioning activities. As a step tow ard unification and as a means of organizing procedure and collecting opinion, a joint meeting o f all sophomores was held in December. From this meeting and from the regular conventions of the Sophomore Class representatives, several inter esting and constructive ideas were disclosed, including the purchase o f school pennants and a dance in M ay. These projects, combined with the general willingness o f the class to do its share, most assuredly constituted a large part in making Crossland's second year an en joyable and fulfilling one.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT PUTS This Is the second year o f the Student Council at Crossland, and the organization had played a dynannic and Influential role in the workings o f our school and the affairs of, the regional and state student council organizations. The Council has functioned in the form o f the repre sentative assembly and the executive committee and has met during school to conduct the major portion o f Its business. It has been on the comm ittee level that most o f the Council's work has been accomplished. The standing committees o f the Student Council are as fo l lows: social committee, program and assembly com mittee, ticket committee, publicity committee, project committee, and the budget committee. For this year the Council has to its credit the C hrist mas dance, the G et-A cquainted dance, a mock vote o f the November national elections, direction o f the candy bar drive to raise money for the band's uniforms,

purchase o f a camera fo r the school, and the sale o f Cavalier booster buttons fo r the athletic teams. The Student Council compiled and distributed an inform a tive bulletin on the clubs and organizations o f the school. Also, it established the point system fo r athletic letters. A member o f the Maryland Association o f Stu dent Councils, the Student Council sent several dele gates to the annual state convention. Crossland hosted the February business meeting o f Prince George's Re gional Association o f Student Councils. The Council held regular bake sales at the meetings o f the PTA, and It directed the PTA membership drive which was successful in securing a membership o f some 1200 in the PTA, one o f the largest In the county. The Student Council has traveled fa r In a short time: and with extensive modification o f the Council consti tution completed, this organization is on the path to a brilliant future.

This year the Safety Council was organized

as a

separate council rather than a committee o f the Student Council as it had previously been. The Council was divided into two sections: "B " or boy section and ' G or girl section. Students were selected from both 10th and

I Ith grades, and each member had to maintain

average grades or better to remain eligible fo r serving on the Council. The duties o f the "B " section were to assist at fire drills, to supervise student parking lots, to detect hazards to the safety o f students, to assist at ball games and assemblies, and to assist with general order. The duties o f the " G " section were to maintain orderly flow o f tra ffic in halls, to assist at assemblies, to evaluate fire drills, and to assume leadership for Safety Week. W ith tw enty-four classrooms being added " K e e p to the r ig h t,"

encourages hall p atrol C in d y Lutman.

to the school next year, the Safety Council will expand to fifty members in order to accommodate the larger building and Crossland's expanding population.

W ords, copy, pictures, and memories were, the basic ingredients used by the yearbook staff to mold this first edition o f the Gauntlet. Recording activities a t Crossland fo r the years 1963-1965 was the task o f the staff; and since Crossland was a new school, the yearbook staff incorporated this idea in the theme. The edi torial staff was selected and organizational meetings were held a t the end o f the 1964 school year. Upon returning to school in Sep tember, the staff found their work cut out fo r them. First o f all, the yearbook needed a name. From the three choices presented to the student body. The Gauntlet received the m ajority of votes. A dditional staff members were chosen and assignments were allocated. These members worked in the sports, academic, activity, class, copy, typing, organization, and business branches. Photographers were dis patched, and work began on the writing of the copy. Formal pictures o f various organi zations were taken in mid-November. Each branch worked diligently to meet its deadlines. The yearbook staff gave a special vote of thanks to the journalism classes fo r helping to develop the '65 Gauntlet. An after-school autograph party crowned the year's effort.

"Extra! Extra! Crossland Ties for Independent Title!” If it were not fo r the newspaper, probably no one would have known this except fo r the team. W ould you have known? The Cavalcade harbors a two-fold purpose: first, to inform students; and second, to help students become more aware o f their school and community. The Caval cade thrived on news items which were gleaned by Crossland's three journalism classes. These young writers were told to "snoop fo r news," and because of their inquisitiveness. Crossland now runs a six-page paper. A cquiring the news is only the beginning fo r the hard-working journalists. W ritin g , editing, typing, re writing, galley proofing, and page editing are a few steps th a t both editors and Cavalcade must survive before publication. For one o f the year's activities, the journalism classes were taken on a tour o f a large metropolitan newspaper building. The visit was defined by one student as "view ing the Cavalcade on a larger scale."

FOREIGN CUSTOMS AND CULTURES INTRIGUE LINGUISTS

Le cercle frangais was organized by third year French students to provide a testing and improving ground fo r those hoping to attain sonne degree o f fluency in comprehending and communicating in French. To ac complish this purpose, the members took field trips, saw French movies and theatrical performances,

and

generally familiarized themselves with the French cul ture. They also attended a French church service. The participants utilized classroom French in all situa tions by organizing discussions, playing games, and pre senting their own dramatizations and films. The films presented by the club were not only o f France, but of Jordan, the Philippines, Italy, Austria, and New Zealand. To increase its rank the club had a small induction cere mony fo r those students in French II who were eager to join.

ASPIRING ACTORS DISPLAY THEIR TALENTS

Aside from giving birth to future John Waynes and Betty Grables, the goal o f the Drama Club was to bring a greater appreciation o f the fine art o f drama to the students o f Crossland as well as to entertain them. To accomplish this purpose, two main productions, "Charley's A u n t" and the musical comedy "Carousel," were p ro Â duced. In addition to these, a number o f shorter plays including "Sorry W rong Number" and " A Christmas C a ro l" were presented during the year. All segments o f production, including makeup, stage props and lighting, publicity, directing, and acting were handled by the seventy members o f the Drama Club. During the year,

members o f the

Drama Club

also attended

various plays produced by high schools, acting groups, and colleg es in the NAf^ashington area to obtain a greater knowledge and apprec lation o f drama. N e il Evangelista, M ark G o o dm a n , James Hyd e , and James Sake rehearse a scene from "C h a rle y 's A u n t."

W ith this in mind, plans were made fo r purchasing photographic equipment.

It is b etter to debate a question without settling it than to settle a question w ithout debate. Joubert's Pensees Throughout history, man has developed and improved his ability to reason quickly and logically and to ex press his ideas through debate. A debate is an or ganized, regulated discussion o f a resolution between two matched sides as a test o f their ability to logically present their views. W ith the philosophy behind the above quotation in mind, a group of interested students form ed Crossland's first debate team. The aims o f the team were to promote interscholastic debate and to establish Crossland as a high school ■ recognized fo r its debating. These students believed that only through debate can ideas be formulated which will stand the test o f public criticism and analysis. The team members mainly concentrated on developing into a group o f experienced and skilled debaters who will act as a nucleus fo r next year's team. Through inter-team de

must be able to identify ten wild flowers and Maryland marine life. To achieve the last rank. Master Biologist, a research paper must be compiled and dissection of a cat completed. The projects fo r this year included one on Gibberellin, a jelly-like substance th a t if spread on plants, enlarges the cells. The results o f the enlargement were graphed and charted. The club has also visited the Suitland bog and the Chesapeake Bay where they furthered their biological studies.

BIOLOGISTS DISCOVER GREAT WORLDS IN SMALL REALMS

For those who have an insatiable curiosity about amoebas and paramecia, the M icroBiology Club, with nnembership open to all Juniors and Sophomores, is the proper club choice. The club was founded with two basic goals in nnind. The first was to familiarize stu dents with the microscopic world around them, and the second, to instruct students in the proper use and care o f the microscope. Meetings, which were held Tuesday after noons to examine and discuss microscopic organisms, were augmented by several guest speakers. Men from the Washington Sanitation Commission, fo r example, discussed topics in

The purpose o f the Audio-Visual Club was primarily to present a service to the school. Throughout the year, students were trained in the mechanics and operation of the

Crossland.

Members learned to use the tape recorder, the 35mm projector, the overhead pro足 jector, the opaque projector, and the 16mm projector. Audio-Visual Club mem足 bers thus were prepared to show films or operate the other equipment in any class足 room at the teacher's request. The main goal o f the club members fo r the 1964-65 school year was to increase the extent of their service to the school.

FIRST-HAND CLASSROOM EXPERIENCES

Future Teachers o f America is an organization de足 signed both to prepare its members for teaching careers and to provide service to the school. The year's program was established around these goals. The best way to find out what it is like to be a teacher is to assume the role. This was done by the F.T.A. members on both the elementary and secondary levels. Crossland's future teachers kept a busy schedule o f activities. Throughout the year various panels and discussion groups composed o f teachers and other persons in the field o f education provided enlightenment fo r the members. Combining self-education and service, the mem足 bers helqi^ tutoring sessions fo r interested students. On several occasions, such as "Back to School N ig h t," the members o f the club served as hostesses and guides. The F.T.A.'s traditional School Spirit and Teacher Appreciation Day was concluded with a tea honoring the members o f the faculty. Films, service projects, meetings with F.T.A. Chapters on

KINGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S MUSICIANS The Crossland Band has again accomplished its undertakings. The first job this year was to pay the remainder o f the d ebt on the uniforms which they purchased. Last year, in two weeks o f avid candy bar selling, the band members with the help o f the rest o f the student body earned almost $3000 toward this goal. This year there was a repeat perÂ formance leaving a small balance to be paid by means o f smaller projects during the year. The band members performed fo r the first time in full uniform a t the last two home football games. Their marching and formations with the help of the Majorettes and Pom Pom Girls provided the halftime shows. The band appeared again fo r their annual Christmas C oncert and later in the year for their Spring Concert. A t the Lions Club and County Festivals, they competed favorably as an entire body with other bands from the county and were represented by outstanding members in the form o f soloists and ensembles. O ther performances were fo r such occasions as H onor Society induction and P.T.A. meetings. Band serves as an opportunity for students to excel in the playing o f a musical instrument and to develop their musical ability. It avails the student a chance to contribute to the school not only work and ability but also their own special talents.

HARMONIOUS VOICES INSPIRE AND ENTERTAIN Harmony and rhythm were the ambitions of these warbling Cavaliers. The Chorus was organized as a means o f fostering more and better singing by teaching the students to use their voices as a form o f relaxation both at home and at school and by emphasizing vocal training and increased reading ability. The results o f this training were apparent in the public performances given by the Chorus.- Their first major appearance this year was the Christmas program where they sang alone and with band accompaniment. They also worked hard to put on their part of the Spring Concert, which proved to be Im pe n d in g perform ance demands mastery o f musical score.

TRI-HI-Y CULTIVATES BROTHERHOOD Tri-H i-Y is a girls' club affiliated with the Y W C A organizations. Its purpose is to create, maintain, and extend in the home, school, and community, high standards of Christian character. W ith a membership o f about eighty girls from the ninth, tenth, and eleventh grades, the Tri-Hi-Y took part in many activities. The club performed service projects, sponsored the "H illb illy Hoedown," and planned special projects fo r Brotherhood Week. Among the inter-Y group activities were the sports tournaments, such as swim meets, and a state convention in Baltimore. One of the principal projects, "Youth in Government," was a meeting in the state capital of all the Maryland Tri-Hi-Y groups. The Crossland Tri-H i-Y saved money to purchase a plaque for exceptional members and to start a scholarship fund. Above all, TriHi-Y is a club where the members learn to work together and appre ciate each other.

Neither the odor of burning toast nor the misery of a fallen cake will be the plight o f these Crossland lasses, for they were the members o f the Future Homemakers o f Amercia. This club was established to develop a wholesome individual, capable of creating a good home. The members were active, participating in county and local activities. Representatives were sent to the county meetings o f F.H.A. at Buck Lodge Junior High. The major project this year was to raise money fo r D.C. Village and the School o f Hope. A bake sale was held, the Snow Ball Dance sponsored, and cookbooks were sold to raise money fo r this project. In addition, the members made candles and stockings for Christmas,' and modeled fashions created in home economics. N ew business' on the agenda brings a th o u g h tfu l discussion led by Betty Eckard, president.

The Future Nurses o f Am erica provides its members with a view o f the future in professional and practical nursing. In the first year o f its existence, the members com pleted a course in Home Nursing and were awarded pins. This year the club attended a tea at the Washington Hospital Center School o f Nursing. Included in this tea were a to u r o f the hospital and dormitories and a lecture on nursing careers. Christmas caroling at Hadley Hospital and collecting food fo r a needy family's Christmas dinner formed part of the agenda o f this active organization.

It was the sole intent and aim o f the zealous Pep C lub members. Designed specifically to cooperate with and to assist the cheerleaders in cheering our football and basketball teams to victory, the club had a mem bership o f approximately ninety students. The girls, wearing red corduroy jumpers, white blouses, red tennis shoes, and white sweat socks, along with the boys attired in black pants, white shirts, and red V-neck sweaters, used pom poms and flash cards during games to arouse the student body and promote school spirit.

Surely the first edition o f The G auntlet would not be complete without a few memorable high lights o f Crossland's beginning year. Teams took their places in league competition with other area schools. This new, modern school attracted wide interest: it was visited by parents, local school officials, and foreign students observing our educational system and facilities. As the year progressed, so did the organization o f spe cial interest clubs, service projects, and social events.

SPIRITS SOAR: CROWDS ROAR

The roar o f the crowd, dramatic tension on the bench, a player's look o f grim determination, cheerleaders sparking an enthusiastic crowd— these are the sounds and feelings of a football game, and such were the sounds and feelings at Crossland last fall. A new coach and a virtually inexperienced Junior-Sophomore team, playing as a team for the first time, would seem a se vere handicap. This was not the case for the Cava liers! Undaunted by these would-be adversities, the spirited team Initiated football a t Crossland with a winning season. Under the guidance o f Coach John Merricks and his fine staff, the gridders reaped the rewards o f long hours o f practice and play planning as they completed an Inspired season with a 7 win-3 loss record. Crossland is ready to move into the A A class next fall. W ith such a tremendous first season be hind them, the Cavaliers can look forward only to a winning season.
