number of students interest
ed in effective reading, and
with Mrs. Strong retiring,
we decided to have a full
time teacher in this field,”
commented Mr. Kanas.

tional Relations League confer
ence on the University of Oregon
campus in Eugene, according to
IRL chapter President Leyton
Jump.
Leyton, Susan McGill, Susan
Richardson, Alan Rumsey, and
Peggy Weller were assigned to
groups discussing topics ranging
from Arab-Israeli relations to
peace-keeping in Vietnam.
Main topic at the conference
was the improvement and ex
pansion of the role of the United
Nations in international affairs.
Groups discussed specific trou
ble areas, and recommended ac
tion in resolutions at a model
General Assembly.
Most stimulating were the “in
formed, knowledgable people,,’
asserted Leyton and Sue McGill,
IRL chapter secretary. “Every
body we met was concerned
about the war in Vietnam.”
Chess club members; defeated
Madison, 4-1, and Wilson, 3-2, in
two “quite informal” chess com

“We play five boards (and
five players) at each meet,” ex
plained John. Team members

Alan Clement, Dale Small, Don
Thompson, and Evan Whipple.
Meets with Cleveland, David
Douglas, and Jefferson high

ranged.
within the ninth-grade program
in helping teachers who have
students with a reading defici
ency.
’ The creative writing classes
have been tentatively scheduled
for next year. These classes may
be taken as an enrichment course
or as a regular course. It is also
likely that James Conover, Eng
lish instructor, will be teaching
the classes.
Other changes have arisen in
the forecasting program in the
form of overcrowded Biology
classes for next year.
It has been necessary for a cer
tain number of students beyond
the number we can accommodate
to consider an alternate pro
gram,” concluded Mr. Kanas.
