Who is B.R.? Betsy is coming. Mys- terious signs popped up about campus, Get Ready for Betsy, and then came the pitch. If we can sell X number of boxes of candy, we will not only receive a video ape machine but X dollars for campus affairs. Despite candy sale maniacs and those understanding mothers, Betsy did not make the debut expected. We did, how- ever, get the equipment so even if we don ' t have a gym or auditorium, we can always be pretty classy with instant re- play for classes, sports, and drama. Although we no longer see anyone straining under boxes of intended prof- it, you occasionally see someone whip another B.R. out of his locker and munch happily on the leftover goods — choco- late always was a pretty good cure for the blues.

Detour to a Cutback) Ronald Clawson Advanced Bible Study Shifting administrative responsibility resulted in some teachers being unable to teach the classes assigned to them. In mid-summer some of these classes still needed an instructor. This problem was coped with in a way unique in the history of Lutheran High. Someone scrounged around the neighborhood churches and found pastors who ' d come and teach only one period every day. Not all of them had ever taught high school students be- fore and those who hadn ' t ran their classrooms in a very original way. Differing from the common procedures felt kind of uncomfortable for students during the first few weeks. Adapting to the changes helped students to look at things from a whole new viewpoint. This expansion of in- sight and awareness seldom occurs in the usual classroom situation. A man who teaches one class puts his best effort into it because it ' s the only one he has. He won ' t settle so easily for a dead-beat class as the instructor handling six courses. It ' s important to the one-period teacher that his students be caught up in the enthusiasm he feels. Having someone teach only one class makes that class a sampling of what Lutheran High is like. Realizing this en- courages students to work harder in that class. There are many advantages to having one-period teachers, and per- haps this phenomenon bears repeating in future years.
