Mr. Cohagen and Mr. Ledford offer archery instruction to students. 84 Highlighting the last week of spring were the mini-courses offered to grades 8-12. Although the program was only a trial, much effort went into making the experiment successful. The courses offered were ones not normally within the regular school curriculLu'n. Some lasted for half a day, while others lasted for only 1 1X2 hours. The half day courses included many activities which took the students to places outside of the school. Canoeing and sailboating were held at Dillon Lake, tennis on the city courts, horseback riding at Dr. Smith's home, and bowling at Military Lanes. Some of the 1 112 hour courses included motorcycling, badminton and ping pong, square dancing, and some not quite as active, such as bridge, E.S.P., hypnotism, and chess.

-is Sta-J Smal let classes zm'tz'atecl Two half-year courses were added to the English program this year. In- tensive writing afforded students both greater opportunity for composition and more time to work with the in- structor on writing problems. In studies in fiction and poetry, the class read both classic and con- temporary literature including - bye, Columbus. Fiction and poetry peopleget ready to tackle another poem. An intensive writing assignment finds nearly everyone busy. Social stua'z'e5 updated Curriculum enrichment came to the Social Studies department this year as three electives were added and a fourth was rewritten. Courses introduced were world geography, problems of society, and marriage and the family. Each of these elec- tives was one-semester long, as was sociology which took on a new look to complement them.
