You really do have a choice Registration — Much ado about nothing. A waste of valuable time and energy; orgy of frustra- tion. That was Mrs. Ruby Watson ' s definition of registration. Scheduling was held on September 9 and 10 in the cafeteria. Teachers, counselors, security guards, and vice principals spent four hours each day admitting students into the cafeteria to sign into their classes. Those undecided were assisted by counselors, teachers, and student council representatives. Other faculty members had their views of registration also. Some, like Mr. Ed Lowe, ex- pressed dissatisfaction with the classes offered. Running for classes is a good idea but we ' re try- ing to give students a choice of classes and there really isn ' t much choice. We offer English 1, 2, 3, 4. What choice is that? There aren ' t many elec- fives either. For some, registration brought about new classes to teach. Two teachers who formerly taught English, Mrs. Cathy Hatch and Mrs. Marilyn Sabens, were now teaching Spanish. Mrs. Hatch stated that it ' s something she wanted to do for a long time and she is really excited about it. Security guard Austin Pulliams played an im- portant role in registration. He checked students ' numbers making sure they registered at the right time. All in all most faculty members were looking forward to the new school year. It ' s great to be back. San G. is the best school around and has the best students, Austin declared.

Swing your partner, promenade Showcase I think it ' s a lot of fun and good exercise. You meet a lot of nice people. Mr. Fred Plimley likes to square dance in addition to teaching algebra and trigonometry at San G. He has been square dancing now for about four years, but first got started in high school. Mr. Plimley was born in Detroit, Michigan and received his teaching credential at the University of Redlands. He had always liked school and the learning atmosphere. I always liked learning and I kind of just thought I ' d continue. I like working with people. ' ' Working with people and square dancing are two of Mr. Plimley ' s main hobbies. The main places in town to square dance are Pro menade Hall and Squaredance Land. Many different dance clubs offer different oppor- tunities. Mr. Plimley belongs to the Highlander ' s club which meets on Saturdays at Squaredance Land. What kind of people square dance? Most people who square dance are either middle aged or older. Usually couples or singles dance on separate nights. People should wear western type clothing and know some of the different pattes calls ' ' or oing calls that the caller may choose to call. Mr. Plimley recommends that people in- terested in square dancing should start tak ing classes at a dance hall. Classes usually are 30 weeks long and differ according to skill levels. A person is usually not allowed to join a dance club until he has completed a certain amount of courses. After a person reaches club level he may join a club and the fun begins. These are usually more classes a square dancer can take if he wants to increase his skill even more. Square dancing has changed a lot since the years when Mr. Plimley was in high school. But it still remains a great way to mingle with people. Grab your cowboy hat and skip your troubles away.
