Have any of you students
been in the pathway of a moving
automobile?
If this misfortune has ever be
fallen you, you realize the precar
ious predicament you have found
yourself.
However, many teen-agers and
adults never consider the pedes
trian, when they are comfortably
seated in an automobile. An auto
mobile is NOT a protector, nor
a shield of armor. Statistics prove
that you can be killed Just as
easily inside a car, as you can
when walking across a street, or
along the road side.
There are no, excuses for the
great number of teen-age drivers
being killed and seriously injured
each year. Teen-agers have a
uuicker reaction time than do

that a teen-ager can stop more

SENIOR WOODWORKING STUDENT Jerry Flocchini is shown in the above photograph with
Mr. F. N. Scapple placing tli9 finishing touches on his hand-hewn cedar lined chest; This was
not a special project and was completed in class with a few tidbits of information from Mr.
Scapple, woodworking teacher at Klamath Union High School. The project required approxi
mately nine weeks, and Jerry came into the shop during his study hall to complete it. The
chest is constructed of hard maple on the exterior, and Tennessee red cedar on the interior.
It will be stained a honey-maple. Jerry has studied woodworking four years, two as a wood
working student, and two as shop foreman. Mr. Scapple commented on Jerry's undertaking,
"He is a very apt student in this sort of work, and there is no doubt hjs future field of
work will be related to a mechanical occupation. Jerry's motivation is to give the cedar
chest to his girl friend." Mr. Scapple has taught along the mechanical line ten years in sub
jects including mechanical drawing, woodworking, machine shop, architectural drawing, and
auto mechanics. Photo by Dwayne Prather

By BARBARA EDWARDS
Don't be too surprised at what
you see the typical teen-age girl
wearing at Klamath Union High !
School. She comes dressed up in
Johnny's sweat shirt and even
artificial pony tails.
But most popular, as usual, are
sweaters in every color mention
able and straight skirts. A few
varieties are the striped Jerseys
and long torso over blouses, and
as for skirts the "tulip" pleats
are reallv bloomingt As for shoes,
white bucks and flats rate highest.

PEANUTS, popcorn, and crack
erjacks! The Klamath Union High stu
dent body and faithful followers of
the Pelicans are hearing these
cries more and more as the bas
ketball season progresses.
These concessions are operated
by "K" Club members under the
supervision of Mr. Len Surles, ad
viser. With two members in the
booths, four members in the stands,
and two additional clean-up mem
bers, the concessions have been
functioning smoothly. Only - one
gimmick in the 'Operation Con
cession': K Club members must
order their popcorn already popped
from Portland, and upon arrival
the fluffy stuff is old and com.
Recently President Orln Perkins
addressed the Student Council, and
requested a loan from the Student
Congress to purchase a new pop
per. When the needed funds are
available, the organization win re
imburse the Congress with the pro
ceeds from the concession.
The new noDper will produce 10
worth of hot buttered corn In one
hour. According to Perkins, tne
new machine should pay for Itself
in several months. The tall prexy,
currently on the first five of Coach
Don Peterson's hoop squad, stated:
"Hot popcorn will naturally sell
better than cold popcorn, and if
we obtain the new popper In time
tor
the final basketball games,
we'll really have
a good deal.V
