Every school system has its problems, and Earlville is no exception. But we're glad to announce that we have recently solved two of them--the monitor and the absentee systems. In previous years, three students were assigned to various posts in the corridors throughout the day. Their job was to supervise the halls while classes were in session. Assuming that students are aware of their responsibility for law and order, the administration has abolished the monitor system. Last spring a change was made which simplified the process of accounting for absenteeism. For many years, students had been required to bring a written excuse from their parents following an absence. Now the parents are required to phone the school office on the morning that the student will be absent. An unexcused absence is equivalent to a zero for the student in all of his classes. Mr. Wicke takes a phone call from a parent who is asking to have a student excused. New Absentee System Introduced Jerry Thome distributes the absentee slips which show twice a day the students who are absent. Bob Russell, who evidently is not aware that the monitor system has been abolished, peers suspiciously around a corner with the intention of sneaking through the hall. 13

John Cast and Dorothy Montooth watch while Tom Wicke illustrates factoring, one of the first things an algebra student must master. To make geometry theorums more easily understood, Allen Worsley, Carol Collins, and Kalah Dillbeck study designs which prove a few of them. Number of Math Classes Increases The fundamentals of mathematics, which include general math, algebra, advanced algebra, and geometry, are taught by Mr. Olson. Because of the large enrollment in the geometry and algebra courses, there are two classes of each--the first numbering twenty-nine and the second twenty-eight. Logics and philosophy are the basic ideas of all four courses . Mr. LeRoy Olson, Mathematics. Learning the use of the slide rule is not one of the easiest things Linda Gould and Ken Kreitinger must do in Algebra II. 15
