P.E. PROMOTES FITNESS IMIAXK :iu-n:u ILAIIIi HITT» A IK8KTON Physical Education and Health instructor at MHS for three years, Jeanne Forrette was a cheerleading advisor and a coach of track and gymnastics. The efforts have been more consistent this year, said P.E. and Health instructor Jeff Kosier, a graduate of SDSU. Most of his extra time was spent as an assistant coach of foot ball, track, and wrestling. A six week course in Health, which emphasized growth, first aid, CPR, and nutrition, was man datory for freshmen. The remainder of the year was dedicated to P.E. in an effort to get stu dents to appreciate and strive for physical fitness. Upper Left: Get ready for table tennis!

BAND INSPIRES TALENT Al Stewart directed Band, Jazz Band, Stage Band, and led Drill Team. He graduated from Southwest State University. Mr. Stewart based his grading system on merit and demerit points. Merits were received because of good playing and attitude, concert attendance, and for playing at out-of-school activities. Demerits were given if students didn't do the expected, or for not going to weekly sectionals. Another part of Mr. Stewart's direction was Drill Team, which received new flags this year. A small fuss was made because the flags weren't school colors. Eventually multi-colored flags were settled on. Above Right: S. Mueller, H. Richardt, J. Torgerson, T. Smith, 0. Giesert, C. Myers, S.
