Sorry Spring Season Sends Students In Side, Out Side Physical education for both boys and girls continued throughout the year, but stu- dents seemed to enjoy the fall and spring seasons when they could participate in outside activities. The somewhat extraordinary weather this spring has, how- ever, been a problem for teach- ers and students. First, spring was slow com- ing. Then, when everyone thought it was here to stay, snow forced activities back inside. Then the outdoor equipment was brought out again. The wind blew, and archers had to give up. It snowed again. The ground dried, and boys geared up for softball. Archery targets were set up again, tennis rackets were uncovered, and the soccer and volleyball equipment was issued. And then, it was back to the gym - inside once again. Girls played murder ball. Boys high jumped. Bowling was a class activity earlier in the spring when no one really expected to be able to get outside. Busing to this activity, unlike other areas of the country, was not forced - students had the option of walk- ing from Super Bowl if they 12 missed their ride.

Auto Mechanics Provide Shop Experience A two year course in auto mechanics is offered at Salida High School. The course is divided into auto mechanics I and auto mechanics II, both in two hour blocks. Auto Mechanics I, in which juniors are enrolled, teaches most of the the- ory in auto mechanics while also pro- viding some shop experience. The Senior Class, or Auto Mechanics II. does more shop work while learning more theory. The course plan is designed to cover such areas as; wheel alignment, brake systems, engine, clutch and transmis- sions, drivelines, differential, and electrical systems. The course also includes the use of modern equipment such as the Sun Diagnostic Machine. This machine is used for engine trouble diagnosis, and tune up among many other capabili- ties. Other equipment includes porta- ble Sun machines which can test bat- teries, starters and generators. With auto shop in two hour blocks the state will reimburse the school for half of the shop's spending on tools and equipment.
