New methods of solving problems and aiding personnel, explorations begun early in summer, soon created excite- ment. Again the first day of school brought mass confusion to the main office as students poured in with problems con- cerning their computerized schedules. For the first time courses in advanced mathematics and advanced science were offered. They enabled interested stu- dents to explore deeper into these intriguing areas. ln case of an emergency, such as an explosion in the chemistry lab, the ability of the school and community to handle evacuation and care were explored in an emergency drill performed by students under the direction of school and hospital officials. The electronics field was further explored by the two months' use of a computer in physics classes. if , .rf .fr f-s vs '5-60 K V-f x ,, vis., ft-ff lf'

. . . Relaxation Both the school and community provided means of student relaxation. Athletic events and dances sponsored afterwards were well attended. For the latter, popular instrumental com- bos provided the music. These proved to be opportuni- ties for students to release their tensions. From the school calendar one day was set aside for students to take advantage of the opening of deer sea- son. The woods were scattered with girls as well as boys during small and big game seasons. Because of the lack of sufficient snow, skiing was rather poor this winter. But when good snow did break, the ski areas were packed with students. Improved slopes and tows made the activity even more popular. Many carefree hours were spent at ski resorts. A form of relaxation employed by most students was incorporated into study habits. gui i X .-.1-v: fn.-,11o v.-1:
