History students to enjoy 'close-u- p' Jim Starr, Pleasant Grove High School Social Studies department chairman, will accompany twelve other students and parents to our nation's capitol for a week of government studies. "Close-up- " is a federal program that is approved by the Alpine School District, as well as the Utah State Office of Education, and has b een a great experience for many students over the years at Pleasant Grove High School. Going to Washington, D.C. is an experience that has had the impact of changing students attitudes concerning government. Instead of being something far removed from the classroom, students have returned realizing that they were the government. These students receive a secondary bonus from the trip. Most never having traveled very far, the cultural experiences alone change their perception of the world. This year the "Close-up- " PGHS students will be staying at the Sheraton Hotel in Washington with other students fromk Detroit, Oklahoma, and Kansas. The students will leave for Washington, D.C. on Sunday, Nov. 16, and return on Sat., Nov. 22. While in the capitol city the students will participate in workshops, seminars, and the like with government leaders. Ambassadors, cabinet members, and government officials will take part in these experiences with the students. Last year President Ronald Reagan met with some of the "Close-up- " students in a highly interesting seminar. This is the seventh year that Pleasant Grove High School has participated with the "close-up- " Foundation in the week-lon- g government experience. The students from Pleasant Grove High School who will be making the trip this year include seniors Angie Anderson, Theresa Parr, Patti Harmer, Tina Groves, Jerel Newman, Carol Macfarlane, and Troy Crossley. Juniors, Jeff Green and Collette Anderson, along with adults Delna MacFarlane and Jim and Colleen Starr will accompany the students. Mr. Starr notes that this is a great opportunity for the community to get to know our government "close-up.- " the Pleasant Grove High School will be making the trip again n ext year, in November and any interested junior or senior students-to-b- e for next year, and their parents and friends are invited to participate.

Their spices are fresh ground and the cocoa they carry is tasty. Alison noted that they have in-stitutional size baking pans such as cookie sheets and so forth. They have carried cookie cutters at certain seasons of the year. Using fresh nuts and fruits from California, they make an excellent trail mix which is very popular.
