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

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.

It was the dream of the drafting teacher, Mr. Harvey Perrine. lt is one of the best facilities in the district and reflects Mr. Perrine's atten- tion to details. His attention is also directed to the speech department, where he has done much work on the new audito- rium where he will serve as technical director. But after many late nights at school, Mr. Perrine retires to his eventually-to- be-totally-remodeled home. Newly married, Mr. Perrine now has more time to build furniture now that he doesn't have to cook and do laundry, he says. Music and traveling take up most of the Perrines free time, or planning the details of things to come, llfkll im 611.5 rw ....

No, because you could turn your concentration to remodeling a store front, or design a house with energy saving techniques, or tackle a one point per- spective of the interior of a room. lf you designed a jig and fixture to mass produce a steel or aluminum nut-cracker, would all of the 50 made pass the quality inspector? Well, if not, you could switch classes and make a hardwood jewelry chest and learn how to make drawers, put in hinges, and join wood in a great variety of joints. And if everything worked out just the way it should, you might get to take your finished product to the Iowa Industrial Education Exposition in Cedar Falls in May. But if you don't win, don't use your maple, teak, or rosewood veneer hunting bow on the judge. Don't throw out your coffee table, book case, or end table, be- cause they will never let you back into the industrial Arts Department.
