Farewell To Arms There is a person at Burns High that no one knows except Health Occupation students. Instructor Linda Jenkins commented, ‘’Miss Chase’s legs and arms have a habit of falling off. Several times students have been practicing transporting her and a leg fell off in the floor.” For all those who haven't figured out who Miss Chase is . she’s a dummy! Health Occupation student, Kathy Humphries added, ‘‘She’s a very cooperative person. She takes everything we do to her. But trying to give her a bed bath seems sorta funny.” The Burns High HOSA Chapter hosted the District 6 Leadership Workshop on November 10, 1979 from 9:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. The District 6 Advisor is Mrs. Linda Jenkins.
