PhysicaI Education Physical Education by law was a requirement up until two years ago, now it is an elective course. P. E. was divided into four different sections this year each lasting a nine weeks. The first section was Tennis Vol- leyball, the remaining time was divided between Social Dance Bowling Slymnastics, Tumbling Gymnastics, and Outdoor Recreation. Outdoor Recreation was made up of archery, softball, and flag football. This was the first year P. E. was co-educational. In bowling this year the bus served as trans- portation to the bowling alley where they learned the different techniques of bowling. Dancing proved to be a rewarding class in which the students learned many new dance steps. Some of these steps in- cluded the fox trot, polkas, and the jitterbug. Slym- nastics also included many different activities. Doing exercises, running and working out on the weight machine. Bows and arrows went astray as students practiced the art of arch- ery. The instructors for P. E. were Miss Rendall and Mr. Garvey. Above: Kevin Baloun gets ready to spank Corinna Harvey for put- ting him out while Scotty Benson daydreams in the background.

Science-Math Highmore High School's Math and Science department is very im- portant especially for those pupils who plan to go on to college. Mr. Larry Larsen taught Biology, Bio-Chem- istry, Human Physiology, and Field Ecology, the first semester. Mr. Mel Jennings came at semester break to take over for him. The Biochemistry and Biology classes had a lab each week to gain practical experience. Mr. Jack Vetter taught General Science and the more advanced Science and Math classes of Alge- bra II, Trigonometry, Chemistry and Physics. The Chemistry class spent many hours in the lab; at times the entire student body was made aware of this by peculiar smells coming from the second floor. Mrs. Sally Whiting taught General Math, Al- gebra I and Geometry. Top: Dan Mewes, Darda Barnes and Deb Oligmueller settle into another General Math class.
