WATCH WHILE TEMPUS FUGITS
(By Associated Press)
DENVER, May 31.-John Haynes, ninth grade teacher, has what he says is a sure remedy for students who sleep, dawdle or waste time in classes.
He requests them to stay one hour after school and forces them to sit squarely in front of a clock and watch it constantly as each second flows by.
It is particularly effective, says Haynes, in the springtime when the classroom window is open, birds sing and the air is balmy and classmates laugh and shout at each other as they romp on the school grounds.
