Saluting JER:-:ATS comme ction Tech has a very special neighboring school. Some of its students take a few classes here at Tech. Which school does this? The James E. Roberts School, of course. The Roberts School was formed for the purpose of teaching handicapped children and giving them physical and occupational therapy. The school runs on the same schedule as all city public schools. Every child is trans- ported by bus to and from the school. There are three special buses assigned iust for the students in wheel chairs. These buses have a lift on the side that raises the chairs onto the base of the bus. The chairs are then tied down and the students have safety belts to hold them in. This year, Roberts School will be send- ing us six graduates. These seniors are enrolled in a senior roll room and all take at least one class here at Tech. Some of these classes include biology, house con- struction, child development, and classes in the Career Center. There are also other Roberts students attending here from freshmen to seniors.

FLFFFF flies higlitolielp students travel abroad How did we get to see such great shows as HEE HAW, WELCOME BACK, KOTTER, MARY HARTMAN, MARY HARTMAN, or STARSKY AND HUTCH, with only a little change in name? Through the courtesy of the Foreign Language Department's pres- entation of the annual FLFFFF show. Not only were there famous television shows, but they were interwined with Band-Aid, McDonald's, Alka-Seltzer, and Dial deodorant commercials. THE PRICE IS RIGHT, the EVENING NEWS, HAPPY DAYS, and many others were also pre- sented in the student version. The purpose of the presentation was to assist students in making a trip to another foreign country for the summer. It's an ideal format for student involvement and entertainment, a great program.
