We jfkhbzzf cgfzzf sfllfws Av flilfiilil dredge Open wider, please, is the request of Dr, Fred- erick Vastine as he examines the teeth of R. Fritz as a part of the school's dental health program. The purpose of the school medical health depart- ment is to achieve a reduction of disease conditions. Professional full-time service of two nurses with four cooperating doctors and dentists is employed throughout the entire school system. To carry out a program of prevention, the department adminis- ters physical and dental examinations periodically to students. Another contribution made by the medi- cal staff is the enablement of senior girls to learn and practice elementary home nursing procedures, While taking Sandra Pfleger's blood pressure, Dr. Alfred T. Johnson, one of the physicians for the Wilson jointure, re- ports his observations to Nurse Laura Rettgers. Dr. Harry Deibert smiles as he inspects the mouth of D. Hertzog, Transcribing his dental corrections is Mrs, Rettgers, the school nurse. Mrs. Knappenberger, Sinking Spring and Lower Heidelberg nurse, makes a record of the physical condition of D. Lee who is being given an examination by Dr, Ralph Tiebohl. M . ,WMM ,- i, I P536

Leinbach gather all the balls representing our varied athletic program. To stimulate student interest in health, courses are provided throughout the high school years. ln ninth grade, students learn to develop a steadfast personality and to build a strong character. Senior health classes offer the opportunity of becoming acquainted with the problems of family life and marriage. The physical education department, with its varied programs of instruction and actual prac- tice, works hand-in-hand with the health depart- ment in the building of staunch mature citizens. Just a few minutes before a scheduled movie is to be shown, the roving photographer sneaks into the auditorium and snaps this picture of the senior boys' health class.

cgcffaafmazhknance Kaffe What makes a school tick? Teachers, stu- dents and the culinary artists, the custodial staff, and the bus drivers. Day in and day out for one hundred and eighty days these impor- tant people feed us, transport us back and forth from our homes, games, plays, and re- hearsals, and keep our school clean. The cooks can't keep any food secrets since the tempting aromas reach the farthest corners of the build- ing. During the summer months the janitors sand, wax, paint, and generally put the build- ings in tip top shape for the new term, We have an able maintenance staff. The bus driven really had their skill tested during the blizzard of '58, Here at our new school bus are Mr. Ritter, Mr. Reedy, Mr. Bentz, Mr. Ruoss and Mr, Sensenig.
