Peanuts Figures Invade Sociology Classes at MHS Good grief! It's Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang! This year the Peanuts characters came to life for the students in sociology classes and gave them a broader background in the study of human nature. Students studied the various personalities of the characters and compared them with people living in our society. Campaigns, bulletin boards and newspaper articles gave the students an opportunity to witness the responsibilities of electing a president. ln November, a mock election was held which correctly predicted Richard Nixon as the next president. With this interest in the national government, economics students learned how to make stock transactions that are an important function of our government. Juniors, in their American History classes, searched back into their family histories and came up with everything from rich-great-uncles to these skeletons in the closet. World Geography and World History gave fresh- man and sophomores a chance to learn about the social and cultural environments of man. A globe and an overhead projector assist Mr. H. O. Tolson in teaching map work in his World History class, fabovej Student teacher Mr. Bute lectures his American History class on famous past political figures. 68 Academics
