By IDABEL COVERT While I have never been much of a football fan, definitely preferring baseball, I am a fan of four of our local boys who play football for the Miners and the Nuggets, Nevada Union High's varsity and JV teams respectively. Every week I earnestly persue the newspaper accounts of the games, looking for theirnames but rarely finding them. So, in honor of their fine playing and the fact that they live in our community, here are their names: John Milhous, Mark Reed, and Ed and Clyde Stuart. Ed is on the Varsity team, while Mark, John and Clyde play for the Nuggets. Clyde was recently made defensive captain of the JV's. So far this year, both teams have been slow to get started. However, based on their last year's record, I predict that at least the Nuggets are going to make a fine showing as soon as they hit their stride. The second annual horse and tack auction sponsored by the San Juan Ridge Piders Sunday, Oct. 15, was a qualified success, if you take into account the very wee weather. The sale was held in the North San Juan fire hall, as usual. The estimated 50 buyers present bought about $700.00 worth of tack and one pony. Apparently the weather was responsible for the absence of horses to sell. Vicki Jones reports that her grandfather, James Archer, of Lindsey, is at her home for an extended visit. Open house at both schools in the district last week was very well attended. I went to both, as a member of the school board and an interested grandparent. I was struck by the difference in parental concerns at the different schools. In the North San Juan school, attended by primary pupils, parents seemed to be more interested in scholastic progress, while at the Cherokee’ school disciplinary problems were the subject of prolonged and intense discussion. It seemed to me that some of the parents had lost sight of the primary function of a school, which is to impart learning. It is not to be denied that anti-social behavior surely is a problem when it occurs, and it must be dealt with, but wisely. The school board has a discipline program that rules out corporal punishment, preferring to Smokey Says: oS <<" 1 TREES HELP HOLD = THE SNOW FOR Help keep out wild fires! rely on conferences with parent and offending child, and exhausting the posibilities of such conferences before turning to suspension from school. It is recognized that most such problems start in the environment away from school; at home or wherever the child spends most of his time, and it is also recognized that hitting a problem child usually does not result in a change of behavior for the best. It must be remembered that the school program, in whatever area, must be administered for the benefit of each student, and all will be dealt with fairly. Herewith another plea for parents to try to attend board meetings.
