With the coming of fall, Mr. Scott becomes a soccer coach for his son Matt. He and two other men coach the boys in the eight and under age bracket. Coaching the boys takes up Mr. Scott's week- ends for about ten weeks. This schedule gets a break in the winter, but resumes in the spring. ln the winter, Mr. Scott is Vice-president of the West side swim club, to which his son, Matt, is also a member. Mr. Scott's summer nights are also filled as he works at the Quad-City Downs race track in East Moline. He has been selling tickets there for about eight years. When he gets time to him- self, Mr. Scott enjoys a variety of activities, including canoe- ing and bicycling or almost anything that takes him out- side. A season's pass to the iowa Hawkeyes basketball and football games is yet another chance that Mr. Scott has to travel in different directions.

ln math John Skaala takes a needed break Ormulasi equations and varia- bles: terms that students in 5 one end of A hall work with every day. Two new things marked the beginning of the new math year. One of them came with the arrival of new books. Students in Senior Math and Algebra ll had the privilege of being the first to use the new books. The other new arrival in the math department is Mrs. Julie Crahm. Be- fore coming to teach at North Scott, Mrs. Grahm taught three years at a school in Dumont, Iowa, and three terms in Pittsburgh. Also included in the math depart- ment is Computer Programming. For the computer classes this is the second year the Apple Computer has been in use. All people in the Computer Pro- gramming classes went on field trips to AEA 9 and Caterpillar. Finishing an assignment, Mike Wehde awaits the final answer.

Known for his body language, Mr. Scott lectures to an American History class with his usual style. Although not one of his social studies duties, Mr. Agosta served as one of the judges for the pie- eating contest at Thanksgiving, iii , '45 W2 he major change that the social studies department experienced this year was the development of the Close-Up club. While students in the past had been able to travel to Washington with Close- Up, this is the first year that the club had been organized to assist in the prepara- tions. With the help of the club, nine stu- dents made the plane trip to D.C. in May. Since this was an election year, the de- partment invited Jim Leach and Jim Larew, the candidates for the first con- gressional district, to speak to the stu- dents. Speaking on seperate days, each man outlined his platform. A mock election was also organized by Mr. Lake and Mr. Agosta to determine the students' preferance for president. And, as in the national vote, the students chose Ronald Reagan for the office. SOCIAL STUDIFS - W 35 .r-- -if
