Just last week I sat in the bleachers between two ladies. We were watching a great football game and at the end of the first quarter, the teams changed sides or goal posts and soon after one of our players loaped across the line for a touchdown. What do they do? asked the quarter. Another thing that surprised me was when the lady to my right jumped up and cheered when the opposing team made 1 a touchdown. informed her that she was cheering for the wrong side. She informed me that she was cheering for the way the game was played not for who played it. Now Im asking you isn't that a poor attitude to have at a football game. Soon after that setback, I was reading the score board aloud to myself: Third down and 10 to go." are, from left: Joan Camesecca, Springville; Sally Thompson, Provo; Lorriel Thorn, Provo; and Colleen M.

Why would a big standing out there in front of all these people catch a little old fly? she questioned. Suddenly her husband Go on home you screamed: he-m- an fool, go on home.

Ive always felt that reading was a bit exaggerated, but now as I sit and answer womens queston at games, Im of the opinion that many are in the same boat as Betty except she expressed herself aloud while most of the gals of today keep their lack of knowledge a se- cret. Im afraid that if the game (MhtoataKD thusiastic youngsters all worked cooperatively together to make the beginning of school quite enjoyable for all concerned. I feel that I should explain several items which have been questioned and problems which have arisen to help inform people of some of the which have been decisions made. We always have much concern about bussing. The District is required to provide transportation, or pay in lieu of transportation, for all elementary children whojive more miles than one and one-ha- lf from the school which they attend, and all secondary students living more than two miles from their school of attendance. Where possible, we do try to on bus routes provide pick-uwithin a reasonable distance of a childs home. The question always comes up about overloaded busses. There is no law or legal definition of an We do have overloaded bus. that are very some busses crowded but in most cases, the crowding occurs quite close to the school. Many students causing crowding in the District are not eligible to ride according to State standards. If transportation problems do arise, people should contact Lee Bate, the District Mr. Transportation Officer. In regards to school lunch, we have not been able to install the snack bars for Middle School and Junior Highs which have been approved. They probably will be in operation near Christmas time. School lunches are cents and thirstill twenty-fiv- e We not know at do cents. ty this time if there will be a ps he screamed: Come on back, you idiot, come on back.

The View From Here By Ruth Rothe Every place I go I hear people about all of the big problems they have and they hardly stop talking long enough for me to tell them my worries, so if you are one of these who think you have a corner on difficulties let me share a letter with you from Aunt Lil. After usual family greetings she says: Things have been going only fair but they got worse a few days. It was one of those days when I wondered whether to get up or not and I made the wrong decision. Something went wrong with the toaster and blew out a fuse and we didnt have any extras so we had bread and butter and jam and a glass of milk for breakfast. Now you know when a man sets down to that when hes got his mouth set for bacon and eggs, toast and hash browns it kinda sets him on edge. In the confusion I forgot to hand Frank his lunch when he left for work so I raced after him with my housecoat on but tell barefeet. For your information I did have my teeth in though. Well the car wouldnt start too good, Im not used to driv- Franks car with stick shift and bucket seats any- ing young way so it took me a minute but increase necessary price sometime during the year. We hope to be able to maintain and thirty cent the twenty-fiv- e lunches for the balance of this year. The meals are nutritious and well planned. Anyone concerned about the meals should contact the principal and make arrangements to have lunch at the school with their student. We have some concern over the assignment of students to particular teachers or to a different school than one which they feel they should have attended. The assignment of students to a particular teacher or a particular school is necessitated because of the need to equalize classloads between all teachers or schools on grade We certainly do not leveL desire to transport any more students than is absolutely necessary but sometimes we must move students to one school or another just to have space for students, and to provide teachers with an equal teaching load. As our schools begin to get larger and additions are added, the necessity to move students out of their own attendance area should be minimized. Many hours are spent on trying to determine how to match the number of teachers with the number of students to be educated and, of course, the addition of just one teacher requires approximately $10,000. In situations where it is impossible to adjust a class size and it becomes overloaded, teacher aides are provided to help the Here again the idea teacher. is that splitting a class of forty students to provide one teacher for each twenty students, is not economically feasible but to provide an aide for a few hours can be financed by the funds generated with forty students in the classroom. We have found, just as many other districts have, that the financial squeeze has required us to change our attitudes and ideas about how we handle large groups of students. Also, we have found that it has not been detrimental to the educational process of the student. May I encourage you, if you have questions, to contact your school principal, to visit the school, and to become acquinted with the problems and the progress being made. We welcome your questions and will try to keep you as informed as possible about the operation of the Nebo School District. We appreciate having your children back in school.

Awards in all poet-sculpt- or g, boy does it collect steam in a hurry! Well I wanted to catch Frank before he got to the freeway and I had my eye on him ahead of me and my foot on the gas. I was probably going 31 in a thirty mile zone when I heard a noise behind me and looked back to see who the nut was making the noise. I noticed that he also had a red light blinking and I suspected that I wasnt going to get the lunch to Frank. Well, when the officer left, I put the ticket on the seat, dried my tears and started home. In my confusion I made a wrong turn and while trying to make a turn at the next corner I missed seeing the stop sign they put up during the night and had an accident with a semitruck and the policeman I was already acquainted with. Since you are my favorite niece I hope that you will find time to visit me in the hospital, the doctor thinks Ill be out in three weeks, but the officer thinks I might go directly to jail so come soon.
