Scott joseph and Mrs. Mary Foster puzzle over the complexities of that obstinate history aid, the film projector. New Government Course Compares Two Systems Comparative Political Systems, a new college-type govern- ment course used experimentally at Moline last year, was introduced into the curriculum this year in the Social Studies department. Seniors compared the political systems of the United States and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics through analytical questions based on readings showing the characteristics of a political system. This new approach to government enabled students to form their own opinions based on a knowledge of governmental concepts. Sociology, a study of human growth and behavior, was taught by Mr. Billie Gene Lee this year. Through the use of record albums, questionaires, guest speakers and open forum discussions, students searched for an understanding of human nature. Mrs. Carol Mickelson taught reading lab classes under the social studies department. The Foreign Language department initiated an independent study program which allowed selected students to work at their own speed. These students had free access to tapes and outside reading material. Although these students worked outside of regularly conducted classes, they were supervised by the teachers of the language department. ,,...-v'- Government class buzz sessions produce penetrating comments on the characteristics of national leaders.
