October one surprise after another Many events, affecting both Heights students and the world, occured in October. Students found out, at the end of the first nine weeks, that the new tardy policy car- ried through the semester, not nine weeks. Other changes to the school came in the new UIL policies. Zoning changes added four schools to our dis- trict and divided the 12 district teams into two groups of six. In mid-October, the whole school tuned in to channel 5, where math teacher Paul Foerster was interviewed by CBS. Mr. Foerster, one of two Texas teachers who received the Presidential Award for EX- cellence in Teaching Math and Science, spent three days in Washington, D.C. Highlights of his trip included President Reagan speaking to the 104 winners and an all-day work- 22 Calender shop discussing problems and concerns of science and math teaching. October also brought publi- cized events from all over the world. The Interior Secretary, James Watt, resigned, and the first Polish solidarity leader, Lech Wallesa, won the Nobel Peace Prize for his work in Po- land. Elsewhere in the world, the Marines got much public attention this month. First, on October 23, the Marine head- quarters in Beirut was bombed. Over 200 people were killed in the blast, which was suspected to have been carried out by Iranian terroriats. On the 25th, Marines invaded Grenada, a small island off the coast of Cuba, to rescue Ameri- can medical students from the communist forces which were supposedly taking over.
