One of these year-long projects included making fiscal calendars which were sold to teachers at the end of the school year. These calendars were designed and deco- rated by the Art Club members. The Sheldon Art Club displayed an Art Exhibit at the Eugene Public Library from January 19th to April 4th. Jim Clifford ponders the problem. Chess Club members were seen throughout the noon hours and before and after school practicing for tournaments. The team competed with many clubs throughout the district. With a combination of brains and strategy, Shel- don's chess team completed a very successful sea- son which ended with a victory over the unde- featablen Thurston, unbeaten in the last nine years. George'Farley follows through strategy.

Two of the more active clubs at Sheldon were the moun- tain and ski clubs. The ski club, very ably led by Nancy Dickson and ad- vised by Mr. Rassmussen, actively raised money by selling doughnuts and candy to finance their many trips. These trips included a weekend at Hoodoo as well as many Sun- day trips to round out the year's activities. Rain, clouds, wind and snow failed, most of the time, to keep the Irish Mountaineers from their activities. After an unsuccessful attempt early in the year to climb Three-Fingered Jack, members concentrated on conquer- ing Mt. Washington in eastern Oregon.

The members sold tick- ets and checked Student Body cards at football and basketball games.
