Q.,-,Q K X , Regents Scholarship Winners In February 1972, eight P.A.C.S. seniors were awarded New York State Regents Scholarships. Each winner may be awarded S250-S1000 a year, depending on family income, if he decides to study at a college in New York State.

Charles Wise has been ac- cepted at the College of Forestry at Syracuse University and plans to go into paper and pulp technology. Charlie is a member Questions for 1. What is your position on smoking? l'm against it! It has been proven unhealthy, a fire hazard and a poor influence on younger students. To allow it is to condone something proven detrimental. 2. Will the snack bar be reopened? The snack bar could be reopened if and when the student advisory council or a representative group of students are willing to develop procedures that are acceptable to the staff and administration. The reason it was closed in the first place was because some few students abused it and left trash. A separate room for it would be best. 3. Our class is having a dance. of the Drama Club, all-county band, chorus and Honor Society. Geoffrey Miller has applied at the. University of Buffalo, to malor in electronics, Geoff is a 1'f'Dorter for the What-Not, and has been a Student Council member in the past.

Klm Mowers has applied at Syracuse University to be a Liberal Arts major, and then to S0 into Pre-Med School. Kim is on the football team, and in the Vflfslty Club and student Ad- V'50l'y Council as an alternate. Mr. Robbins-- :ow come there is a rule that ds have to check in and out of l-he dance? Will this be enforced? The Student Advisory Council has Suggested that we try an open damfet allowing students to go olfffrlde during the dance. I am wmmg to lry such an idea, as Evite as there are no problems Involved as a result of allowing it. 4- Vlfhat happened to the faculty decision on revising the eligibility System? The faculty and SAC are still considering, a new eligibility system. We want to he sure it's right for PACs before is is adopted. None is better than one which doesn't work. It may not take effect until next fall. Mr. Robbins question: What can we do to develop greater school spirit? . ,Ji tl 'i . Mini-Courses Offered at PHS The start of the new semester has seen something new at PHS. It is the Mini-Course. Mini-Courses a e f'classes given during th school day which students attend during their free periods. ln these classes students, learn things about subject tliiy are par- ticularly interested in. There are no marks or testszn these sub- jects, in general-they merely give students who l'ave too much time on their han ls something constructive, educational, and interesting to do with their free time. 'Y The Min-Course program was originated by Mr. William Robbins, principal of PHS, and its purpose is really quite simple. Mr. Robbins feels that students who have an excess of Study Halls during the day, who have too much free time on their hands and nothing to do with that time, turn off to school after a while. Having already finished their homework in previous Study Halls, some of these students turn to other means to pass the time, such as talking excessively and disrupting Study Halls, roaming the halls and disrupting other classes, or even smoking in the basements. Even the strictest disciplinary conditions cannot stop these actions completely and certainly cannot eliminate the boredom that occurs when students have too much free, time by Jean North and nothing to do with it. Mr. Robbins feels that if the students Small Appliance Repair are being taught by Miss Wood, Mr. have something constructive and xTully, Mrs. Jerome, and Mr. enjoyable to do with their free time instead of being constantly bored, they might turn on to school rather than turn off . A survey taken at the beginning of the school year helped to determine exactly what subjects should be taught as Mini-Courses. The survey showed that Karate, Judo, Scuba Diving, Music, Swimming, Guitar Lessons, Yoga, Skiing, Photography, Superstition. Ceramics, Psychology, Fencing, Use of the Trampoline, and Tennis rated top fifteen in grades 9-12, and that Karate, Judo, Swimming, Use of the Trampoline, Scuba Diving, Guitar Lessons,' Skiing, Yoga, Music, Horsemanship, Snowmobiling, Camping, Canoeing, Typing, and Child Care rated top fifteen in grades 7- 12. It is felt that courses in knitting, crocheting, macrame, painting, sculpting, and other artistic fields would receive a large following, and that a course in money management should also be offered. Mayor Carpenter and Senator Douglas Barclay have offered to teach Mini- Courses on Government. There are at present seven Mini-Courses offered at PHS. Basic Typing, Beginning Golf, Conversational French, and Martin, respectively. A Math Lab and a Junior High Drama Group are being offered by Mr. Wetherby and Mrs. Stone and a Mini-Course in Skiing is being offered on Saturdays. Mr. Robbins has high hopes for this programg in his own words, the sky's the limit. But these hopes cannot be achieved without the support and cooperation of thelfaculty and students of PHS. fr mee 'ishing to donate their ge totich a group of twenty or thirty students a subject in which they are skilled should contact Mr. Robbins immediately. Any effort will be gratefully ap- preciated. Anyone wishing to find out more about the Mini-Course program should also contact Mr. Robbins.
