GEOMETRY For the first time Mrs. Hulka and Mrs. Steiner took over 20th Century and government classes. Each semester the students studied about both local and na- tional government. Throughout the semester a series of speakers like Mr. W. Vabntene of the F.B.I, and Sgt. Kelly of the U.S. Army carried out discussions on various topics. To conclude the year the social studies classes visited the Howard County Jail. This year in World History, the students studied dif- ferent parts of the past and present world. Mr. Barns, under Mr. Morrison ' s guidance, did his student teaching in the World History classes. This year the geometry classes designed spirit post- ers in geometric form to show support for the Titans. Also the college algebra classes participated in six weeks of independent studies. Again this year our school took part in the Annual High School Mathematics Examination. Scott Grant, a junior, won first place. Scott ' s scores, along with sec- ond place winner, Patty McMullen, Randy Sellers and Jerry Eckert, third place winners; were sent to a na- tional level of competition.

MARY ANN HUBER WINS The senior homemakers learn the aspects of antiqueing. The home ec. students were very busy this year. Se- nior home ec. students made candle sticks out of old table legs, upholstered old chairs and made formals out of unusual fabrics. The juniors learned how to tailor and their main project this year was making a wool suit with lining. A unit on window treatment, flower arrangement, and good arrangement of home furnishings was completed by the sophomore classes. Cotton suits were also made by the sophomores. Cotton, A-line dresses with sleeves, were made by first year home ec. students and pant-jumpers were made by the eighth graders. The eighth graders also studied child care and money management. The seventh graders learned how to make breakfast, fix snacks, cook quick meals, and prepare sandwiches in addition to studying about family relations and good grooming. Students have new sewing machines to work with.
