I9 mev'tQ,qvx I-ltsl-or Ines gotpct la le. Why do we have to take history? .., I lost my notebook, it's death for me! Who cares about a dumb book report anyway? As a required subject for juniors, American History is inescapable. Mr. Leroy Griswold, Mr. joe Murtha, and Mr. Wayne Valentine try to teach the class in a more interesting and appealing way. Economics was stressed much more this year, due to the present outlook of the country on inflation and the recession, said Mr. Murtha. Mr. Griswold and Mr. Murtha are in a team teaching situation which enables them to teach approximate- ly fifty students each hour. Giving the students a variety of studying methods, such as lectures, discussions, study guides and inde- pendent studies helps the students relate more to the subject said Mr. Valentine. International Relations Club, sponsored by Mr. Murtha and Mr. Griswold held several discussions on countries and peoples, reporting on the different life styles. The countries discussed included Germany and Mexico. Some of the military schools for dependents in Europe were also discussed. 11 Mr. Griswold and Mr. Murtha 1 discuss history's importance in stu- 2 3 dent lives. 21 Mr. Valentine answers questions put to him by his students. 3f IRC: BACK ROW: C.

This year as in all years past, sen- iors, much to their chagrin, were re- quired to take American Govern- ment to graduate. Mr. Robert Wil- liams and Mr. Charles Black, govern- ment teachers, had the job of teach- ing apathetic students which is not easy. Despite apathetic students and hardworking teachers however, go- vernment is still required to teach students to become better citizens and be more understanding of poli- tical activities around the world. V Mr. Williams grades the study guides from his senior government 1 I 2 classes. 2! Averaging grades is an- 3 other tedious task and Mr. Black is not exempt. 3f Students in Mr. Black's third hour, spend much of 4 their class time answering questions out of the government book. 4f Studying diligently, Mr. Williams fourth hour government class tries to completetheir study guides on time.
