Well, another sketch and 1 will have completed my duties. Steve West did most of the an work featured in every issue of the Icon Copy, pictures, and extremely hard work all lead to the publication of the Icon. Mr. Parker, new to Chopticon. headed the staff of fourteen students. Ninth period in room 107 everyday of the school year was the newspaper's headquarters. Reporters were writing stories and typing them into the computer. Other staff members were busy taking pictures, developing them, and measuring. Just clean up the spelling and it will be great copy. Mr Parker. Icon advisor and also tenth grade English teacher, gives his approval. Fifty minutes was not enough to successfully work on an edition of the Icon, many after school hours were put in to finish deadlines. Work was not over after the paper was sent to the printers, a new issue was yet to be started. Through the hard times and the good times, the CHS newspaper always seemed to be completed.

Under the direction of Mrs. Kit hie, approx- imately 30 students were active in JETS. JETS stood for Junior Engineering Technical Society, the club made up of students in the higher science classes. Each month JETS members received newsletters, containing articles on other schools' Jets clubs. On the agenda for the 86-87 season was a tnp to Calvert Cliffs on Dec. IS and a trip to Walter Reed Hospital on Feb. 2, 1987. The club also featured the Science Fair and the Physics Olympics. A large majority of JETS members par- ticipated in these activities. If you had an interest in a science or mathematical field then the JETS Society was for you. Demonstrating how to light a bunsen burner is a small task for Mrs Kablc compared to her work with JETS, Chemistry classes, Physics, and the Science and Engineering Fair Hey Jody, wake up, quantum numbers aren't that boring. Roger Squires and Jody Willet are two students that took the challenge of college prep Chemistry And they say college is harder and faster, Oh no! But Kathy Lallande doesn t fear with her background in her work with JETS and Mrs Kablc s science classes. 118 JETS
