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.

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.

mm Socia Sciences Gurope, Asia, Middle Gist Human Relations U.S. History, Problems United Nations The best way to filibuster a controversial bill is when you can face the audience which in this case has formed a circle about the room where a mock legislative assembly went on most of Spring Semester. 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.

Mrs. Emily Lewis prepares to teach the sophomore occupations class. What better way to get a taste of the world of work than to actually dabble your toes in it. The sophomore occupations class (Mrs. Lewis) found themselves on a bus headed for Portland and a visit to some businesses and institutions which seemed of interest to a majority of the class. The girls visited Bell Telephone, St. Vincent's Hospital, Western Business School, Phagan's Beauty School and Portland Airport. The boys' interests being different, they visited Albina Engine and Machine Works, Freightliner Corporation, Poet-land Bottling Company, KGW TV, and Portland Police Department. Another of the activities sponsored by the sophomore boys was a panel discussion in which the merits of a new shop were set forth. Lois Wooderson, Kerry Barr, and Linda Moore wait for another short lesson on hitting a tennis ball with an overhand stroke. Mr. Don Heldt, Driver Education instructor, and Cindy Brittain wait for Bill McGinnis to climb aboard so they can log a few more hours of driving. Have you ever seen a foot brake on the passengers' side of the front seat? If you've ever seen the inside of the Driver Education car you'll know there is one! Mr. Heldt relies on it heavily. He also pushes on it heavily at times — like going down Tygh Grade at 70 mph! Driver Education is now a statewide requirement for graduation, usually taken by sophomores and juniors. 17
