Little was known about how the body was constructed. Most diseases were consid ered to be caused by evil spirits. Modern perfected meth ods of diagnosis enable physicians to correctly de termine the cause of sick ness. Fortified by this knowledge and ably assist ed by recently perfected drugs they often, almost overnight, produce results that were formerly impos sible. That is why now, more than ever, it is wise to consult your physician when sick.

Crater High School By JUDI DAVIS It seemed like "old home week" around Crater since the two days after Christmas vacation and all of this week. A large number of Crater "grads" have been showing up for visits to teacher's and students. They all seem to ei ther be on vacation from col lege or home from other parts of the country for the holidays. Moans and groans were heard from a large number of the girls this week. Some even were walking with a slight limp or holding their backs. It was very strange that all of the girls were ei ther juniors or seniors. What was the cause of all this? Just a course in modern dance in the PE classes. The girls elected to take this course from PE instruc tor, Miss Nancy Purvianca. They started out by doing limbering up exercises pat terned after the Swedish gymnastics. They were then divided into groups of four and created modern . dances of their own. Some were to the beat of jungle drums, some to marches, and others to folk dance music. In spite of the stiffness of the first few days, all the dances turned out quite well and the girls have a better appreciation of modern dance methods. Students reported to the cafetorium ' at designated times on Thursday to see the film and hear the talk given by the state game commission on conservation and safety. Every year,' the commission comes to the school to pre sent a program of this type. Since coming back from the Christmas vacation, the student body has been busy starting on the March of Dimes campaign. Many dif ferent types of activities have been planned and some have been carried out. The student body is working hard to win the county trophy for the third straight time. If it is won this year, it stays at Cra ter. We are again challenging Medford High school. The kick-off assembly will be held Monday to officially start the March of Dimes cam paign for January, MOD Chairman Richard Evans said. "We've won!" was the cry heard Friday night at the bas ket ball game with Grants Pass at Crater. It was a con ference game and everyone was thrilled with the final score of 42-40. Everyone, that is, except Grants Pass fans. It was a hard game to lose as it was close from the start ing moments, and it ran into an overtime as the score was tied at the final buzzer 38-38. At the half time, the Com ettes did an unusual routine with colored flashlights marching to the dance band's fine music. With the final buzzer, the Crater fans swarmed onto the floor to cheer the team for a fine game. Hedrick Junior High By Jim Frake Three new students recent ly entered Hedrick Junior High. The student body at Hedrick would like to wel come Peggy Riechers, Robert Riechers, and Donna Human. The Hedrick Junior High band under the direction of Ronald Bartlett, will present a 30-minute program over KBES-TV.

Many shouts of fright were ; heard at Hedrick while re ; takes on individual pictures j were distributed by the of fice. The pictures were of those students who were ab sent the first time pictures were taken. Craig Miller and Ray Graves set the school National Rifle Association record. Both students "shot" 48 points on the targets. This is the highest that has been scored at Hed rick out of a possible 50 point. The National High School Poetry association has an nounced it is printing poems written by three Hedrick stu dents. Winning poems were Marilyn Ernst's "Thoughts of Life," Ann Morse's "Message of Love," and "Good Luck" by Larry McDowell.
