Mr. Eugene Hedrick shows concern for the moral implications of the world's problems in dealing with questions about U.S. involvement overseas. Many such questions arise in class discussion. Joanie Suiste seeks some educated opinions from Mr. Schackman concerning her research paper in American Problems, while Gloria Vogt is still in the process of writing research notes. The social science department had a variety of offerings this year — taking anyone who wanted to on a tour of the whole world it seemed. Among the classes were Europe, Armed Conflicts, Asia and the Middle East, United Nations and the United States. The study of American government in Mr. Hedrick's class culminated in a mock legislative session with several controversial bills introduced — some were the result of Earth Day discussions on population and resources. Mr. Schackman's classes again found that one of America's problems (?) was research papers. Student riots, improved education and pollution dominated the topics selected for research papers. Kathy Chamberlin and Jill Niles talk over some front page headlines with Mr. Tony Schackman, American Problems instructor.

Mathematics, Algebra, (geometry Two is to four as eight is to sixteen. If angle A equals angle C, and angle B equals angle C. then angle A equals angle B. The proof is in the logic in Mrs. Smith's math classes including general math, algebra, geometry and trigonometry and calculus under the heading of Math 6. Math games have given many of the students the opportunity to improve math skills through drill of logic. Battleship was the most popular of these games.(Powl) Mrs. Smith contemplates if it is more important that the right logic has been used on a problem in spite of the fact that the answer is incorrect. The blackboard makes a handy scratch pad and is so easy to erase. John is proving it in this picture. Kathy and Penni talk over a story problem at their desks instead. John McElherm, Tom Troutman, and Penni McCorkle are discussing the merits of the English Metric system of measurements with their instructor, Mrs. Smith.

Mr. Don Heldt is a famed square dance caller from way back. Every Friday afternoon seemed the most profitable time to give square dance lessons. Mrs. Heldt is on her way down to the field to conduct one of the outside classes including tennis, baseball and track. PG-Hcalth Driver Gducation Occupations Physical fitness can be acquired many ways in addition to the conventional up-2-3-4-down-2-3-4. Mr. and Mrs. Heldt and Mr. Shackman have emphasized individual and team sports this year, with classes traveling to the Madras golf course and bowling alley. The highlight of the health classes (also taught by Mr. Heldt) was a medical self-help course with fundamental first aid taught and practiced by all. Some of the first aid techniques dealt with making splints and tourniquets, and emergency childbirth. Jack Snodgrass may be In doubt about the outcome of her health test but Mrs. Heldt keeps right on marking errors.
