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.

outlined by Pilnclpal l.wooil

June meeting, Me alo gave rec

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.

direction allied with their Inter
est and capabilities. 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.

Imply like to list the courses
which have been added to th?
curriculum since 1956. We have
been able to offer shorthand and
hrvnkltpf-nlnfT each vear. al
though these courses were offer
ed previously on an every other
year basis. Beginning business

ed in the general business area.
In science we nave aauca
biology course for trcshmen stu
dents who show outstanding
ability in science and who
might want to take a biology
II course which is an advanced
course preparing students for
college biology. In English we
have added a full year course
nf inurnalism and a Senior
course of composition and have
made speech a yearly course. iu
meet the requirements of stu
dents who might wish to enter
many fields requiring math, we
added a course in aavanceu
math to prepare these students.
Although our program is not
entirely satisfactory at the
present time, we have added a
