Architects Work At Reductions In Gym Plans To
Get Costs In Line With Available Funds
Muiti-Purpo , Gym -- Architect
William A. Johnson and staff met
with the Hood Canal Board of Di-
rectors and made deduction pro-
posals to the gym to the amount
of the value of the Hoodsport
school property in hopes of get-
ling the much needed project mov-
ing. Ix)w bidders were being noti-
fied and much progress has been
made to arrive at a figl~re feasible
to ace.opt. There is still much hope
of selling the property in Hoods-
port during the time of construc-
lion and then replace all the de-
ductions, i
Sulmtltute Pay --- The Hood
Canal Board of Directors during
the reg~lar board meeting raised
substitute teacimrs' pay to $21 a
(lay. This move was necessary so
as to compete for substitute teach-
ers from Shelton to ~llow for
transportation expense. Any tea-
chers in the district who are qual-
ified and interested in substitut-
ing please call the Superintendent
of Schools of Hood Canal at the
Hood Can~al Junior High School.
T.V. Math -- All Hood Cal~al
School District teachers are in the
sixth week of a 15-week brief
course in mathematics for elemen-

series the district's faculty will
tvtke a look at our math program
from Grade one through nine and
make any necessary revisions to
up-grade the districts' math pro-
gram, said Supt. John Pill. Need-
less to say it is sometimes rather
trying to fit into one's schedule the
different showings and the teach-
ers are to be commended for their
il~terest."
Hood Cared Itl-lites: The first
issue of the school newspaper,
the "Hood Canal Hilites", received
many compliments from the facul-
ty and studentS. The staff was
very proud of its first issue and
intends to better the paper with
each succeeding issue. With this
in mind, the original staff of sev-
enth and eightl~ graders has been
"beefed up" with the addition of
several ninth graders. Tl~ey in-
elude Don Bearden, news Editor;
Leslee LaBissoniere. Business Man-
ager; and to the editorial staffi
are Donna Reed, Yvonne Van Lea-
n-an, Terri Simmons and Sandi
Smith.
Third Gmule -- Mrs. Sjobolm's
(:lass has a doll collection on their
display shelves this week. The
dolls arc from Japan, Korea,
France, German, Hawaii, Sweden,
I)enm~,'k, Scotland, an American
indian and an Eskimo from Alas-
ka.
Fifth Grade -- On Oct. 14 the
class made a. very successful trip
to Tacoma. The first step was
made before crossing the Narrows
Bridge to talk about the history of
the Narrows and the bridge. The
acqnarium at the Point Defiance
Fark came next and then hmch
was eaten on the beach. A stop
was also made at the Tacoma
smelter. The drive from the park
to the Washington State Histori-
cal Society was made along the
waterfront in o~ler to see some of
Tacoma's industries. An hour and
one-imlf was spent at the museum
looking at many mteresting exhib-
its including a recent addition, a
chair that had been used by George
Washington. The day ended at 5:45
p.m. with the return to the Junior
High School, tired but happy for
a day well spent. Thanks to Mrs.
Jim Hunter and Mrs. Charles Lind-
er for going along to l~elp make
the trip a success.
Sixth Grade---Our football team
had its first game rained out. The
first team includes, Randy Essex,
Curtis Peterson, John Sutton, Jer-
ry Smith, George Kegg~, Dan Bo-
lender, Steve Inman, Lewis Dean,
' Clinton Laclalr, Jim Dickinson, and
Allen McGee. On the second team
are Ricky Tweed, Mark Grubb,
Bill Hunter, Lane White, Doug
Rae, Mike Johnson and Terry Rae.
We are expecting a Halloween
Party and going to have a math
test.
Seventh Gratis---The class has
just received its new Social Stud-
ies book on the Eastern Hemis-
phere. The books have many of the
same facts as the old one but is
much more up-to-date and inter-
esting. The class has been reading
tam stories about wild animals
which they have enjoyed. They
say nearly all 43 students have
m,astered the understanding of
subjects, verbs and prepositional
phrases if the test Wednesday was
an indication. Deborah Williams
topped the class which in turn
topped the school in magazine
sales. As a rewarci they all re-
ceived an ice cream feed. Mrs. Mc-
Dowell must have regulated the
amount eaten as there were no
I tummy aches reported. The class
[also got to keep the blue auto-
i graphed poodle as a trophy for the
most sales.
Eighth Grade.--The P.E. class
has learned that football isn't the
only sport that is fun. There were
loud objections to playing volley-
ball because it was a sissy game
but after playing a few games
they have decided differently. It
is not only a lot of fun but also
!is a game that takes much skill.
The class has been taking spelling
tests based on words most often
!misspelled. They now believe the
i source of the words is t~e as Bill
i Essex was the only one to get
!~00 percent on the 1,ast test.
Ninth Gratis---As a reward the
class got the opportunity to watch
most of the World Series games
last week on the school's new TV
set.
ArC---Mrs. McDowells' Seventh
and eighth grade art class are
making mosaics cut from colored
paper and pasted together in a va-
riety off interesting designs. They
lmve also pasted many different
kinds of grains, such as, rice,
wheat, lima beans and lentils on
wood to fon~ pictures and designs.
Some enterprising students have
used vegetable dyes to obtain a
greater variety of colors.
What the Glrl.~ are doing--Thir-
ty-three girls will be taken Oct. 31
as delegates to the Girls' League
Conference at Hoquiam. They will
be chosen on scholastic merit
along with several girls chosen
as alternates.
The Hood Canal Parent-Teach-
ers Association l/old its reg~flar
meeting at the Junior High School
last Monday night at 8 p.m. Fea-
tured as a speaker was Father
William Shilley of Bremerton, who
gave a very interesting talk on,
"Social Morals of Junior High Stu.
dents".
