Committee To B Named It was suggested that the Chamber consult the Forest Sor vice on work that It has done towards recreation planning In the areas mentioned. Ed Dick said that since water resources are Involved, government au thority would be needed before development could be done, even if It were possible to acquire the properties Involved. Members agreed that Presi dent Randall Peterson should appoint a committee to further explore these possibilities lor recreational development Some members said some in the coun ty are changing their thinking in regard to the need for rec reational development, partly as a result of the popularity ol Bull Prairie and the interest it is attracting from persons living out of the area. i.

THANK YOU! --HEPPNER GRILL outlined by Pilnclpal l.wooil Pratt In a talk before the dis trict M-hool board at Its regular June meeting, Me alo gave rec ommendations for future con kMetallon. ' Kxoerpt from b t' MIav; , tit year 1 f'ef Mr- Stewart had been here for one year. I found Heppner High nhool to be on its way out of what I would term a bad slump. Through efforts of Mr. Stewart ....I m.. numlter of thine Were nlished that affected the council and the student body and the faculty. Overt action was taken to Improve the drew habits of particularly the girls in the school and the neatness ol the appearance of the stu dents In general. The standard of education and the level of work by students was apprec iably superior In a wry short time. Regular school dance and other school activities were In atituted which Ereatlv affected the conduct of students. More emphasis was put on cfn.l..nt ci-ivernment and al though punishment and rewards were never given as respuii-M. bilities of student council, many projects were started through these wars bv tne siuueni coun cil which again affected the con duct and morals of the student body. At the present time, most students are taking some part in .iih. r.:. !.nt ptivernment or club organizations and the feel ing Is that wttn this interest im attitudes toward class work is Imnroved. Conversely, those stu dents who take no part in any student activity are usuauy uie same students who do not do well In school. Counsel; log Stressed One of the most dynamic ef fects upon total progress was the institution of the counselling j program. This particular pro i gram has done much to aid the students ana solve some vry basic problems, more than any other program. Scholarship assistance has risen from almost nothing to this years total of $7,800. e have not only made available information on where to apply for scholarship assistance, but also, how to apply.

It is my earnest d.lre that this program be strengthened and enlarged a to Include at leat the junior High school. With the counsel ling program, students are able to bring personal problem to the attention of the appointed counsellor. Our policy has been to create confidence In our counsellors by the students, by never divutg Ing personal Information which was entrusted to the counsellors. Athletics Contributes Some may aay that our total athletic program Is a paradox and In some way I may agree. It has been my ilcy to strengthen the athletic program. particularly through me prac tice of athletics, by instituting training rules and strengthening and Increasing requirements in school organizations, through limiting participation. To my knowledge, the athletic program has not dominated the t.it.t nr,iimm but rather, has maintained its Influence and has maintained Its rightful place in the student curriculum. There has been some significant ad ditions to the athletic program: 1. Athletic director. 2. Cn country program. 3. Golf pro gram. These additions nave proved to be not oniy saiiMac tory. but of great advantage to Ihn nmi-rAin If l mv fct'lini! that In years to come we should see more emphasis placed on In dividual sports such as golf, track, swimming, tennis, skiing. and on team sports sucn football, basketball, and base ball. If it is our duty to educate students for living, then this philosophy must prevail, as very few ever become outstanding team athletes. Lately, we developed an in tramural program which would satisfy the needs of all students who do not compete in the am- k-tic program.
