This unity of our puzzle extends to ev- ery sector of Manual Life. The adminis- tration must decode the puzzles of loosely worded regulations such as Title IX and unwritten dress and conduct codes. Who is to decide whether a girl wearing a strapless tube top is properly attired? First the teaching staff must ad- just to the administrations ' idea of proper. Then, the faculty just alter their own beliefs to provide a working unity in the staff. When a boys ' team must ac- cept their female classmates as team members, the coach acts as mediator even if his beliefs oppose the inter- pretations. Willingness to accept change provides a challenging unity to all at Manual.

We were sent to school to learn, not nec- essarily academic knowledge but practical and vocational knowledge. The learning unity involves three classroom ties: the stu- dents learn from the teachers; the teachers learn from the students: but most of all the students learn from other students. When a student holds back knowledge, he destroys the links of learning. In vocational educa- tion the student-student exchange of knowledge was the most important. Here, they shared techniques they have devel- oped themselves. Giving a part of them- selves, through ideas, strengthens the unity of class which then extends through the school. No word is complete without every letter and no classroom is complete with- out every student participating. ABOVE— Senior Mark Owens finishes in first for the relay team at a Southport track meet. TOP— Mr. Dennis Jackson teaches artificial respiration in summer school swimming class. Junior )im Laetsch acts as the first aid guinea pig. RIGHT— Chemistry teacher Mr. )ames Walker portrays the thinker as he contemplates during one of his free periods.
