markable Incident a t Carson

is the dream of John Sharp, Jan-
uary Teen-of-the-Month.
A BOY of the great outdoors,
the junior class president likes to
fish, hunt, and swim.
In accordance with his love for
travel and na-
ture John plans
to become a
naturalist, stu-
dying the his-
t o r y of the
world’s plants
and animals.
“I will prob-
ably pick up a
major in ento-
mology or zo-
ology from Tech,” says John con-
cerning his educational plans.
BORN IN Nebraska, the tan-
ned, blue-eyed junior came to
Lubbock in 1953 after a short so-
journ in Albuquerque.
He was elected a vice president
of the sophomore class, and came
out on top as class prexy this
year.
"THIS IS the largest high
school I’ve ever been in,” he
comments. “A t first, I never
knew on which street I would
come out when leaving the build-
ing.”
The junior sums up his life
philosophy in one sentence: “Plan
your future, but be prepared for
it to be disrupted at times, be-
cause everything won’t go your
way.”
