HIGH SCHOOL T OCTOBER 1970 EDHTURS ANNUUN ED FUR N701 Reunion in Guatmmla By joe Dawson l spent approximately ZV1 months in Guatemala. The country itself is progres- sing, although it would be quite unfair to compare it with the United States. I feel the people down there are abit friendlier. They bend over backwards for a friend, taking time out from their jobs and plansg whereas in the States, the rush, rush, rush, thing and the l'm interested in me feeling prevails. One of the largest problems of almost all Latin America countries, including Guatemala, is poverty. Overcrowding in public schools filled with poor children encourages anyone who can pay the tuition send their children to one of the many private schools. -The private schools are pretty much the same as our public schools. They have the same courses for the same age group. ln Guatemala Physical Education Class is required only once a week. l also noticed that discipline is a little lax compared to our school system. Students attend classes 4 hours in the morning, take 2 hours for lunch, then finish up the day with 2 more hours. Whenever the guys have a chance fusually during the 20 minute recess in the morn- ing! they play the favorite sport soccer. That's how l saw it, and oh yes, Carlos sends his best to all here at Western. Player of the Week Lou Poff selected by coaches r. Miss Contest Holly Duplaga has been chosen as one of the eighteen semi-finalists in the Beaver County Junior Miss Pageant. The pageant will be held October l7, at 7:30 p.m., in the Beaver High School auditorium. This pageant is sponsored annually by the local Jaycees. The purpose of the event is to recognize an outstanding, but typical teenager.

Page2 1970 Dress Code The I970 dress code was revised by a chosen committee through a series of meetings, which were held during the past spring and summer.

This code pertains to those areas of health, safety, and well-being of each student, and the proper maintenance of school property.

The administration shall be responsible for dress code en- forcement. We try to maintain dignified, but democratic and courteous at- titudes in our social relationships about school. It is necessary to maintain a cooperative organization which affords as much freedom as possible without endangering our personal rights. Any circumstance not covered in the dress code shall be handled as it occurs. The administration shall make the final determination. Gold Cards At a recent school board meetlng Gold Cards were granted to residents of the drstrict who are retired and 65 years of age. The cards will also be available for those residents on disability retirement. These newly-granted Gold Cards will entitle its holders to attend all school sponsored events, with the exception of Commencement at the end of the year. Applications are available at the various schools in the district. XX Overseas Visitor By Elaine Fox Nadine Pribichevich, who is l5, is presently residing with Dr. and Mrs, joseph W. Dawson. She comes to us from. Zagreb, Yugoslavia. Nadine will remain in the United States for six months, as a visitor, but some day she hopes to live here permanently. She has one brother, and three sisters-George ll, Carol l7, Mariann I9, and Sally 7. L. The schools in Yugoslavia are run a bit differently from Western. Student's attend classes six days a week, and their school day ends at l:O0 p.m. ln school, the girls wear red uniforms. Long finger nails, polish, and makeup are prohibited. The boys must wear black uniforms and their hair short. Nadine tells us that American and Yugoslavian food is very much the same. She likes what she has seen of the United States very, very much. Nadine especially likes school buses because at home she had to walk to school. which was a mile away fro her home. Also, she had to tote her bo ks all day because in Yugoslavia ther are no lockers or desks to keep them in. We at Western wish Nadine the best, and we promise to make her visit as memorable as possible. H OMECOMING October 16 l l i l 1 4 l 1 1 i fi 4 4 l i i i l A l i l 1 1 l 1 l
