2 THE GRANTONIAN April 19, 1968 Recipient1 of many awards... Teachers turn class discussions into hike It all began a couple of weeks ago when the discussion turned toward the difference between today’s Forest Job Corps camps and the Civilian Conservation Corps of the 1930’s. That was the time when Leonard Whitlow announced to his class that there would be a hike for all interested students, to take place on April 6. The students going on the hike would have first-hand experience as to what the boys in the CCC really accomplish. As it turned out, nine students accompanied Mr. Whitlow on a 13-mile “round trip” hike up the Eagle Creek trail which starts about one-half mile east of Bon neville dam. The hikers, Bill Curry, Bruce Parker, Steve Hauen- stein, Mel Berg, Dale Skin ner, Ken Dahl, Margaret Fraser, Tom Wilson, Rick DeFoux and Mr. Whitlow, were showered with a light drizzle throughout the ex cursion which began at 8:30 a.m. A dry overhanging ledge near Tunnel Falls was the stopping place for lunch, and also a good place to pick up wood ticks as some of the hikers later discov ered. “We all met at the bottom of the trail at 8:30 a.m. and hiked until 2:00 p.m. in the afternoon,” informed Meg Fraser. Many beautiful sights can be observed from the narrow trail Jim Winkler wins contest A prize of $1,500, and third place in the nation, were just two of the honors brought to the Speech department this week by Jim Winkler after competing in St. Paul, Minnesota.
