We have a staff that is concerned about all students and proves it by continually attempting to devise a wide variety of instructional programs to make learning both challenging and interesting, a staff that is sincerely interested in preparing young citizens for an uncertain future, a staff that is com- petent, cooperative, and creative. We have a studentbody that is concerned about individual as well as group welfare, about problems now as well as those of the future; a studentbody that is actively involved in school and community affairs, that is interested in making a real contribution in the search for excellence; and finally, a studentbody that is interested in achieving high standards. In short, Orem Junior High seems to project a spirit of growth. Everyone is interested in growth and improvement and this attitude results in creativity, enthusiasm, and excitement; all vital ingredients of a successful institution. u Wouldyou believe................. . . . In the peace and quiet of the halls. LAND OF SPECIAL SERVICES We first enter the Land of Special Ser- vices. This is a land of special sounds and smells. We hear the muffled whine of floor polishers, the chirack-chirack-chirack of the mimeograph machine, the u'c-tic-ping of the electric typewriters. We detect the familiar scent of peanut butter along with the delectable smells of fried chicken, chili, pizza, and many other pleasant odors. For a hard bright shine, may I recommend Arro- wax...? Mrs. Stratton oversees the budget. A11 registrations and transfers are taken care of by Mrs. Mann. Farr Hatch Alice Jensen Don't become emotionally depressed, Mr. We'll figure something out.

LAND OF CORE Some of the pioneer creations of the Core students. Core students also made goodies using pioneer recipes . Robert Carter Margo Lake The method of travel is unique in the Land of Core. These people travel in can- vas covered wagons pulled by oxen. They are self-sustaining and extremely ambitious, demonstrated by the fact that they build their own homes, make their own candles, con- struct their own furniture, and sew their own clothes. A unique architectural style is pre- ferred by the people of this land ---- logs with mud chinks. -'.I Alexander Lott Lucille Peterson Wayne Reynolds 12 LAND OF MATH LeRoy Loveridge Shirl Loveless Ray Roeller F rank Thompson The land we are entering now is the mysterious Land of Mathematics. The pencil-thin inhabitants of this area speak a strange language which is unintelligible to many people. Words like polynomials, hyperbola, quadratic and abscissa defy interpretation unless you have qualified interpreters such as the four pictured on this page. Besides the strange language. this land is known for numbers one can- not even write down and for unusual learn- ing techniques. Maybe we'll find the Spirit of the Jaguar here. . . . . . ,7 lb bi l fa .x, N ' r Mr. Thompson sure has a lot of problems. . . . . . Or is this the other way around? The great American cover-up. f. ACTIVITIES 3 PAGES LAND OF LANGUAGE ARTS We are entering the Land of Language Arts. This land is known for its big people -- COURAGEous people like Paul Bunyan, John Henry, and Huckle- berry Finn. Its inhabitants are also known for their tolerant, unPREJUDICEd attitudes. These people can laugh at themselves. In fact, they are often seen looking into MIRRORS and laughing. Good HUMOR is in evidence everywhere, ranging from loud belly laughs to thoughtful smiles. We hear other voices raised in DEBATE and DRAMA. We see strange activities going on. Greeks are reclaimed from the MYTHOLOGY of the past, con- tracts between students and teachers provide for skiing trips, CRIMINOLOGY is studied, and a var- iety of newspapers are published, under a variety of names, and other types of MASS MEDIA are experimented with. These are people that have strong FAMILY ties. One notices that the longer one stays in this land, the stronger becomes his PERCEPTION, the result being that the minds of these people are not clouded by slanted propaganda and unSOUND THINKING.

The natives here find themselves constantly moving about and continually getting confused as to where their new destination lies. They are involved in activities such as mock conventions, contract units, and the impossible task of map construction. Though confused and bewildered these natives seem to survive!

This is the place most dwellers like to go. Building yourself up and putting a smile on your face is what you accomplish here. There are many land features here like the Shower Falls and the Towel Trees. The sports like basketball, football, and gymnastics play an important part of this land. It is certain you will have a fun time look- ing at these activities.

LAND OF MUSIC And now the hills of Music are coming into view with their towering granite cleffs. These hills are full of Bass and Treble Worms that squiggle up and down. We can hear the sounds of the natives singing, the wild rhythm of a band, and the myster- ous sounds of strings vibrating. There are a few sour notes here and there, but with time and help in these hills, the amateur will become a pro at his instrument or with his voice.

The eighth graders get into the act as the humanities students sing Christmas carols. LAND OF SCIENCE Well, this next land certainly looks interest- ing! The traveler is king, as displays have been set up by the natives telling the tourist about all facets of the country---geology, fossils, animals, insects, and weather. These people exercise a wide variety of other interests too as they choose also to study astronomy, magnetism, light, and sound, to mention a few. They are not afraid to experiment---in the classroom as well as with field trips. Maybe we'll find the Spirit of the Jaguar here.

The first thing we are impressed with is the beautiful scenery. We see many young artists sketching and painting the many picturesque surroundings. We are also impressed by the smells, particularly the aroma of cooking food---bread and doughnuts and cinnamon popcorn Oi. We now enter an area which appears to be an industrial area, judging from all the machinery which is in evidence. We hear the hum of motors, the whine of active saws, the tic-tic-ping of typewriters. This too is an area of smells---meta1 being welded and wood being cut. This is such an active land, we leave it with reluctance.

Just what is the spirit of O.J. H. ? A flashing smile? A big hello? Or just maybe a sly wink? Is it the frustration that always comes when You're opening your locker and then having Someone slam it shut? Could it be the embarrassment That makes your ears turn red When someone notices something Nice that you did? Is it the moaning and groanings That are always there when They turn up the lights in the auditorium? Or how about a fourth Visit to Mr. Zimmerman in a week? A citizenship class? A straight A report card? Dance participation? But then maybe the spirit is in the school. Sort of, maybe like a soul. Maybe it has creaks and breaths. And cringing with every step we take. Silently wincing every time Mr. Holdaway lets his yardstick fly. Maybe it's the way the kids suffer through all the peanut butter. And can eat it down like martyrs Still joldng about it. Maybe it's finding a friend, One that you can really talk to. But then maybe the spirit of 0.1. H. Is just really me and you. Claudia Rigby MY AMERICA This is My America, My home, my native land. I love her valleys, streams and trees, Her mountains tall and grand. I pledge her my allegiance, As I see the flag pass by. I honor all her soldiers Who, for her, would gladly die. Today I watched my President As he proudly raised his hand. He gravely took the solemn oath To become leader of our land. America please smile on him And help him to do his task. Let us not display rebellion Like a twisted ugly mask. For this is My America, And together we must stand. That righteousness and justice Be the watch-words of our land. Let us learn to live together, The black man and the white. Let us laugh in the warm sunshine, Never fear the dark of night. Yes, this is My America . The land of the brave and free. And to live in this greatest of all great lands, Thank you, God, for choosing me.

Many things passed through my mind, but it seemed that I couldn't really concentrate on any special thing. As I was thinking, I fell quickly asleep. When I awoke the moon shone brightly over the velvet smooth water. As the small ripples rolled over and over the light from the moon glistened as though I was in a diamond field with large spot lights beaming down and reflecting off the diamonds. Once again I began thinking. I thought of how lucky I was to be here on the beach this night and realize what beauty really is. I wish you could see what I was seeing. Yes, but not everyone could see this beautiful sight. Those who are blind could be here in this exact spot, but still couldn't see the wonderfulness of this scene. They would only hear the sound of the ocean as it rolled to their feet. They would only be able to feel the soft silky sand and smell the sweet fragrance of clean, pure water and the smell of red roses from a nearby rose patch. Oh yes, but still this is a great place to be even if one was blind. As I looked at my watch, I realized just how long I'd been there. It was 7:45, I must have slept for near- ly three hours. Oh but how wonderful those hours were. How lucky I was to be able to relax and calm myself at a time I needed to relax so greatly. Yes, I feel better about the whole thing now. For I have had my joy and my glory in this beautiful earth that was created just for people like me. I walked back to the car, and slowly traveled home. When I reached home, I reluctantly went to bed. You might ask why I went to bed reluctantly, even though I was very tired. It was because I knew that this would be my last time that I'd ever go to bed alive. For to- morrow I will die of lung cancer. Epilogue: The next morning, Major Robert B. Williams died at 6:35. He didnlt feel any pain, for he died while still in his sleep. He has comple- ted his mission on earth. God bless him. By Brent Olsen FREEDOM: PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE Freedom has been an important word in the language of all men since the beginning of time. Even young infants feel a need for freedom. A tiny baby Will become angry when its arms and feet are tied, allowing no freedom of movement. So important is the cause of freedom that mill- ions have died for its cause. Men all over the world have agreed with Patrick Henry who said, Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death! Can any moral man deny Ei's fEHow men tEir rights- and Rliefs? A form of freedom was found in ancient Greece. These people enjoyed freedoms that many people in the world today can not even hope for. They were free to share in all decis- ions of the government, and they were able to express them- selves in any way they wanted to. But this was because they had slaves that freed them from heavy manual labor. Almost one-half of the inhabitants were slaves! The Grecians, then, did not have freedom for everyone. Can we call this freedom, when only a few enjoy it? No, freedom must be for everyone! Even in ancient Rome there was not a complete free- dom. The people captured by the conquering Romans became slaves, and could not become citizens. Therefore some of these ancient Romans had no freedoms. But when they did gain these freedoms, some years later, the prejudice of the upper class Senators stood against them. When even the sons of slaves became Senators, these Senators twhose fathers before them had also been Senatorsl became bitter and jealous. But so important were the laws of the ancient Romans that their principles of order, justice, and private rights are part of the written and unwritten laws of Western civilization today. Christianity brought a new light on freedom. Christians hold that man has a soul that is separate from the body. This belief helps make each person seem more special in the eyes of his fellow men. Christians began to respect each other as brothers in Christ. Respect of other people in a free society is very important. During the Middle Ages, little freedom was seen. Those of nobility gained land, wealth and prestige. Peasants had no rights. Their very lives could be taken at the whim of a noble. People had no say or share in their government. The Kings ruled for worse or better and it was usually worsel. But freedom for the common people was on its way with the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215. This charter restrained King John tof Englandl, who was then ruling just as he pleased. It stated that no nobleman or freeman aand holderl could get punished at the mere whim of the King, but had the right to be judged by jury according to certain laws. Responsibility was placed on the king to call together a council consisting of nobles and church officers. Even though this applied only to nobles, in time it came to apply to everyone in England. King Charles, another English king, again interfered with the rights of the people. He did not call together Parliament, and he collected outrageously high taxes. So out raged were the people of England that they forced King Charles to sign the petition of Right. This petition stated that . . .no man hereafter be compelled to. . . yield any tax. . .without common consent by act of Parliament. King James II, also of Eng- landl joined the list of tyrannical Kings in the 1680's. When in 1689 he was finally forced to flee from the country, a bill of Rights was drawn up. It stated, among other things, that Suspending of laws. . .without consent of Parliament is ille- gal. Some of the rights stated in these charters are impor- tantnfreedoms in our nation today. These include the right to a fair trial by jury, also the chance to be represented in a Parliament by men of the people's choice. But these laws, when applied to our founding colonies, were abused and mistreated. The Puritans, who came to this land to find freedom, usurped for themselves all of the freedom, making it miserable for the other settlers in Massachusetts. It is for this reason that I feel that the Puritans did not come to this land for freedom, but because they wished themselves to be the ruling powers, and not those with different beliefs. To quote Abraham Lincoln, Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves. As colonies England had abused our rights and off- ended our dignity. Much thought and careful reasoning took place before America began to fight, however. This is shown in the Declaration of Independence . . .whenever any form of Government becomes destructive. . .it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it. . .Prudence, in- deed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes. . . But When a long train of abuses pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them tthe peoplel under absolute despotism, it is their right their duty, to throw off such government and to provide guard for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of the Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of goverment. . . We see'that our founding forefathers were careful and wise in all their decisions. They were fighting for our free- doms as well as their own. Today many of us do not even appreciate or recognize these freedoms. Few people have read the Constitution. And how can we, as a people, support the Constitution if we do not even know what it contains? Our freedomsztoday are slowly but surely taken away from us. It is our own fault. Corrupt men are beginning to take '4, public office. Some of these men help to pass evil laws which will gradually destroy our nation. Others are ignoring laws which desperately need to be enforced. They are stealing our freedom! They are making it impossible for us to keep with our glorious heritage! There are many good men in office. We must make sure, though, that all men support the Constitution and fight Communism. We must think and reason clearly so that our minds do not becOme muddled with propa- ganda-Communist or otherwise. Above all we must not give in to the Communists. If they would conquer us we have no more freedom than the slaves now in Eastern Europe. Am- erica should not let rioters or flag-burners of any kind dest- roy her from within. That would be the worst death that America could suffer. America should have the hardest working, most morally clean people in the world. Other- wise, how can America he the grandest country on earth ? Future freedom in the United States is as yet a clean page.
