Business education Christmas usually finds students in Mrs. Oppliger's business classes designing and producing their own creative Christmas cards. At most other times, though, you'll find students racing against time and competing against their own skills — trying to develop speed and accuracy in shorthand and typing. Progress charts and occasional awards add additional incentive to strive for perfection. Part of a second year typing class (upper right) is shown hard at work on manuscripts. Mrs. Oppliger probably corrects more papers than any other person as there are always timed writings and much shorthand dictation done in a day. (Below, left and right) Mrs. Oppliger is shown giving some hints to students as they work.

Doug Woodside has wound and rewound a lot of footage this year as one of the projectionists. Other projectionists included Craig Snodgrass, Dan Johnson, Don Brown, Bill Cameron, Paul Franklin, Larry Marshall, Steve Ellis, Bill Cox, and Tom Chastain. Polly Zumwalt is getting prepared to make up the new overdue-fine list before report cards come out. Cifirary From Socrates and Shakespeare to Bradbury and Updike and Michener; from the revered Dewey system to the Library of Congress System — each of the student librarians must learn a little of the science of librarianship dur ing the year. Major projects accomplished by librarians, this year were cataloguing of filmstrips and records and updating of the card catalog. Mrs. Lewis helped each student with various tasks and Mrs. Zumwalt supervised while she was at classes. Re-shelving books is another of the jobs librarians must do to keep the library functioning as shown by Greg Enterline and Pam Trask. LIBRARIANS. TOP ROW: Ramona Vogt, Darla Jones, Gloria Vogt.

(5fie Sciences The sciences — the bases for all other disciplines — are perhaps more important today than ever before. Coming to WCUHS from a research assistantship at OSU is Mr. Eric Partch who spent the year creating a new awareness of the sciences and how they affect man. Oceanography, Astronomy, Metallurgy, Chemistry, etc. are all within the realm of subjects covered. Ecology, the study of man and his relationship to his environment, was a new science (or perhaps an old one renamed?) also championed by Mr. Partch. Mr. Heldt taught two new sections of earth science — botany and geology. The geology class went on a field trip to the John Day-Fossil area to observe the formations of earth that they studied in class. Mrs. Heldt teaches biology. The lab work this year included hatching some eggs in the study of embryology, examining a beef heart to see how blood circulates, and disecting frogs. (Above right) Debbie Graves and Rose Ann Woosley receive some coaching from Mr. Partch about their assignment in Chemistry class. (Right) Mrs. Heldt is correcting some lab work from a biology class. Many drawings of animal and aquatic life were the result of lab work. Many frogs were seen leaving the biology room, however, there was some speculation as to whether or not they were hopping. Dan Dyke (left below) prepares a slide for viewing with the supervision of Mr. Partch. Ross Alsup and John Patton will view the slide as well.
