ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING is one in the series of mechanical drawing courses of
fered at KUHS that deal with the drafting technique used in small house design. Here
the students design the dwelling and make all the necessary drawings. The models
shown are built outside of school time for extra credit. Approximately 200 students
are enrolled in the eight mechanical drawing classes. Shown here, left to right, are
Ross Griggs, Bill Sehuldheisi, John King (barely visible), John Eraus, instructor Frances
Scapple, Larry Cheyne and Don Patterson (barely visible).

'Dropouts' Are
Major Problem
In High School
Only slightly more than half of
all fifth grade pupils finish high
school; less than two-thirds of
those in the ninth grade remain
through grade 12.
Persons lacking a high school
diploma are the first to feel the
results of the diminishing demand
for unskilled labor, and are at
greatest disadvantage in periods
of high unemployment.
Juvenile delinquency is 10 times
more frequent among dropouts
than among high school gradu
ates.
Portrait of a dropout: he is 16
years old; often he has been
marking time, waiting to reach
the age when he may legally
quit school. He is most likely to
quit between the 10th and 11th
grades. It is especially likely that
he will not return after a summer
vacation.
Statistically, the broken home is
an element frequently met in the
background of school dropouts.
Boys and girls who lack strong
family life and ties are often
those who are most eager to get
away and become independent.
Perhaps the most crucial in
fluence exerted by the home, re
garding dropping out of school,
is attitude. The feeling of par
ents toward school, especially
those of the mother, play an im
portant role in shaping the atti
tudes of the child. If, throughout
his early years, he can see that
his parents value the opportunity
to acquire an education, even
though they themselves may not
have had much formal schooling,
and if he knows that they place
a high value on his performance
at school, he usually can be ex
peeled to take a positive attitude
toward the school.
POET'S
CORNER
KLAMATH
DEEP in Southern Oregon lies
this land of wind and sun:
Summers brushed with breezes
from the high Cascades,
Cool and sweet with subtle
charm
Which will haunt insistently
While we seek a better clime,
'Til we return!
Autumns like an Indian legend,
Saving back from Summers'
store, the rarest days
To be savored at our leisure
But we haste to gather treasure,
For we know it soon must pass!
Winter comes with storm and
fury,
And with swift finality,
Just as though to put an end
To all our thoughts of gentle
ness. Then, as a father, when his
wrath is spent,
Magnanimously beams upon his
quaking brood,
Sir Winter smiles through rift
ing clouds
In sun upon the snowt
But long he rules
'Til we are weary of his mal
caprice, And eagerly and vainly grasp
Upon each sign of his relenting,
We hear of Spring in Sunny'
Cal!
We'll not stay here another
year!
Then . . . Summer comes!
LAND of contrasts . . . brutal,
winsome
This enigma that we call the
KLAMATH BASIN!
This our HOME!

Aptitude Test: an examination
designed to appraise a person's
ubility or potential ability to per
form tasks for which he has had
little or no preparation and ex
perience. Often such tests are giv
en to help a student choose the
career or vocation for which he is
best fitted. An aptitude test dif
fers from an achievement test,
which attempts to evaluate a stu
dent's level of success at InsVs
for which he has had previous
training (such as his ability to
read, express himself in writing,
spell, handle arithmetic, and so
on).
