Bulletin Board ASST. PRINCIPAL CABAS RETIRES On January X, 1985, Salem High School lost one of its most valu- able assets: Assistant Principal John Cabas retired. During his 35 years at Salem High, Mr. Cabas spent only 12 years as an adminis- trator. The other 23 were spent in the classroom, teaching general science, biology, and driver’s edu- cation. The latter he continued up until his retirement. Mr. Cabas will probably be best remembered for his coaching of high school basketball. For this, he has had the honor of being in- ducted into several basketball Halls of Fame. In future years, people will ask what influenced many of the tra- ditions and attitudes now exhibit- ed at Salem High. One of the answers will have to be “because of the tremendous dedication and understanding that Mr. Cabas had toward this school and its stu- dents”. It is certain that many years will have to pass before SHS even begins to forget the presence of this extraordinary man. (At left, John Cabas. This information, in part, supplied by Quaker newspa- per article by Mary Ivan.) BIO. SKELETON IS KIDNAPPED Salem High found itself buried deep within a mystery during the early part of December. It seems that, sometime between 4:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m., someone broke into Mrs. May's room and stole the hu- man skeleton that was on display. Also found missing was a model of the human torso, which illustrated the organization of the organs in the body. Upon arriving at school that morning, Mrs. May noticed that one of the windows in her room was open, and that the skele- ton stand was empty. As the word was spread throughout the day, more and more information be- came known. Whether it was be- cause of this spreading, or for fear of the truth being known, the skel- eton was discovered three days lat- er by Officer Esterly of the Salem Police Department; it was found early in the morning outside of the vocational wing of the school. Al- though there were a few bones bro- ken or missing, the skeleton was back. However, at press time, the torso was still missing. (At right, Becky Prickett and Steve Rosar search for clues on the empty skel- eton stand.) ASBESTOS CEILINGS CAUSE PROBLEMS The Salem City School Board was faced with a possible fine of $12,000 when it was determined that they did not comply with an EPA regulation concerning asbes- tos in schools. In 1980 the state of Ohio mandated that, because of the link between asbestos and can- cer, all schools must be examined for the existence of the substance. In 1982, because of this ruling, the Salem Board of Education hired the private firm of S.D. Myers of Cuyahoga Falls to conduct this in- vestigation. Since then, over $20,000 has been spent in the at- tempt to contain any loose asbes- tos dust. In July of 1984, the EPA conducted their own search of the building and found that many of the trouble spots were still unre- paired. Such places were the kitch- en, the coach’s room in the boy’s locker room, the auditorium, and the gym hallway. In February, the fine was reduced to $250.

STUDENTS LEARN 180 NEW WORDS This year, Salem High students were presented with a new way of learning and improving their vo- cabulary skills. This instruction came in the way of morning an- nouncements. Each day a new word would be given, and the meaning of the word was present- ed the next morning, along with a new word to study. The program, entitled “180 Words to a Better Vocabulary, was begun so as to give students who attended Salem a better awareness of the use of the English language. To help students learn these words, teachers made it common practice to use the “word of the day” at least once during their les- sons, and some went as far as to give tests and quizzes over these words, making it necessary for their students to learn the mean- ings if they were to pass. The daily game also reached to the public, in that The Salem News printed the words in each paper, giving the community a chance to build its vocabulary skills right along with the stu- dents. In the end, everyone had the benefits of 180 new words. (At left, Mike O'Brian brushes up his knowledge of vocabulary.) Bulletin Board Oliver Depierreux arrived from Brussels, Belgium, and resided with Mr. and Mrs, James Roberts, Being an ex- change student provides for an extra year of education, as he has already graduated from an all boys boarding school in Belgium. Upon returning home, Oliver plans on follow- ing a career in medicine. His hobbies include judo, skiing, gymnastics, and soccer. Oliver is eighteen years old, and has a sister and twin brother. Michael Mendelsohn lives in Wienhausen, West Germa- ny. At sixteen, he is the older of two children, the younger being a brother. His father is a retired VW salesman, while his mother is a school teacher. Af- ter returning home, Mike will complete two more years of secondary school, and will then major in computer sci ences in college. While in the U.S., he stayed with Mr. and Mrs. Earl S. May. His hobbies include computers, acoustic guitar, electronics and reading. Ken Morris comes to Salem from Essex, England, where he has already graduated. Arriv- ing in the United States on Au- gust 27, he stayed with his host parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jan Shears. At sixteen Ken does not plan on attending college, but rather he will work in the computer software company, Kit-Calc Software, that he and some friends began. As a hob- by, Ken enjoys playing the keyboard and synthesizer, as well as computers. s
