, :' xx Frm: More than a marshmallow roast Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Order in the court, for today, Wednesday, Sept. 19, is the opening of the Salem Witch Trials. The first defen- dant is none other than Bill Young? Witch trials in 1980? In Mrs. Vivian Hutchisson's Honors American Studies classes, the students reenacted the Salem Witch Trials as they were said to have been. Costumed in a wide variety of caps, bonnets and robes, the partic- ipants portrayed the Puritans to make the viewers believe that they were really there, in Salem, Mass., in 1692. The mock trials were just one ofthe many special activities in the Honors American Studies class, a combination of both Amer- ican literature and American history. The students met in room A-2 to listen and learn as Mrs. Hutchisson gave her two- period-long lectures on the Revolutionary War and the literature ofthattime. By com- biningthese classes into atwo-period block, the students get an opportunity to under- stand how literature and history affect each other and the relationship between them, Mrs. Hutchisson explained. ln addition to American Studies, a wide variety of other history and literature classes are offered to students. Among these is Northwest Ohio History. Two times in the fall and again in the spring, a school bus is loaded -with tents, cookware, food and sleeping bags as NWOH classes prepare for a two-day camping trip. Mr. Thomas Berg, the NWOH teacher, explained that taking the class on the camp- ing trip gives them a better attitude toward the class and makes them realize that there are many interesting facts to learn about the history of Northwest Ohio. On the Camp-Out the students set up their own camp, prepared their own food and learned about responsibility. In addition to the six-mile hike along the banks of the tow- path of the Miami-Erie Canal, canoe trips were offered down the Maumee River.

Serving Sylvania What goes on in Sylvania during the hours of 7:35 a.m. to 2:25 p.m.? Northview wanted to know and become a part of the action, so they began organizing different clubs that would work with the public during the time that they were in school. Northview opened a small restaurant lo- cated near the cafeteria, called the Golden Chandelier, opened to the public for lunch. The business was fully operated by the stu- dents, who were instructed and trained to prepare foods. Northview also started training students in hair care. They thought that if they built a beauty parlor, the students could train and get the personal experience needed to get a job after high school. One other service that was offered to the community was the student aid program which sent senior students to elementary schools to assist the teachers. These students read stories and taught the younger children how to add using flash cards. By offering these various services, North- view has become a part of the Sylvania community, in school and out. Preparing various cold sandwiches offered on the Golden Chandelier menu is junior Dale Wagner. Scheduling a hair appointment for a customer is senior Lesia johnson.
