Emphasis On Physical As Well As Political Strength The Physical Education Department forsees a y a complete change in society's philosophy for Barbara BandStra the 80's. One member of the staff interviewed suggested that it will be a decade of increasing unity, and sees government as taking on new leadership roles and beginning more projects to help the common man. The staff member i also commented that this might lead to greater caring and lpnderstanding between people. The 80's will also see a return to the family unit, although women will be a larger force in the job market and play more important roles in government leadership. There will also be a greater interest in conserving our natural resources as we progress. The faculty mem- ber optomistically concluded that the 1980's will be an exciting decade, and hopefully one of unity and caring. RIGHT: The only direction you can move in physical education is up. ?'er Carmine Magnotta Michael Rodgers David Ruch Wayne Walton

Dolores Bradley Elizabeth Campanile Janice DeSarno I k , Merk Frankel, ' M We Are On The Road To Peaceful Socialism Our history department's approach to their subject is twofold, the romanticists view and its technical opposite-cause and effect. Most members of the department agree that we should take a more humanistic approach to the future based upon the events of the past. This could, in fact, subsequently lead to a more har- monious merging of the technological and educational worlds, and perhaps someday you shall be viewing history lessons on a type of computerized cable television. As for a cause and effective point of view, the history department feels that we should be on our guard, learning from our previous history and previous mistakes. In the com- ing years Ocean Twp. should be prepared to meet a more futuristic history depart- ment. FAFl LEFT: With the rise of our technological ad- vance will come the rise in social, psychological, and philosophical awareness. At stake is the sur- vival of our race and world. BELOW LEFT: The Social Studies Department will more and more meet the needs of students who are neither college bound nor academically oriented. Arthur Wankmuller
