Course Additions Advance Studies Advanced physics, taught by Mr. Alan Breitler, is the newest addition to the science department curriculum. Most of the 10 senior boys in the class will take the advanced placement test in May to try for exemption from physics in college. Closed circuit television and other electronic equipment which may be used by the school will be built as out-of-class projects. In addition to the daily college-level class period, students stay until 5 p.m. every Thursday for laboratory study. To be eligible for the course, a student must have taken biology, chemistry and first-year physics. The waiting list in driver education is practically nil, according to Mr. Milton Sarris, driver education teacher. Classes have been increased from five to nine daily due to the addition of Mr. John Aravanis in the driver education Photo by Bensinger a d v a n c e d p h y s i c a l p h e n o m e n o n . . . department.

The tree that Jack chopped down now stands majestically in Jack’s living room, surrounded by cards and presents from neighbors, friends and dear ones far away. Even Jack himself is beaming with a sincer smile for all he meets. His pockets are empty, but his heart i full, overflowing with peace and good will toward men. Snow white and joyous, his world is beautiful. But what will happen when Jack takes down the sparkling decorations and throws away the friendly cards? Will the senti ments expressed on the cards survive the chill of January o will they be discarded with the crushed tinsel? What will hap pen when the pine-scented tree is wilted and brown?

Susan Wilson. Golf, Tennis Teams ------By Jeff Erlichman During the spring of 1965, the teacher members of the D.C. Coaches’ Association threatened to strike unless they were given extra pay for their coaching duties. The strike never materialized So you re but the effects of the agreement between the Coaches’ Association and the D.C. Board of Education are being felt at Wilson. For the first time in Wilson’s history there will not be a faculty coach for either golf or tennis. This is most unfortunate, because golf and tennis are the two sports in which the Tigers have always had respectable thinking records. The golf team, under Mr. Tony Kupka, had won 18 Interhigh titles in 19 years. The netmen won the Interhigh crown last year and are always one of the top teams in the city. As of now, the four major sports— football, basketball, baseball, and track— are assigned coaches. These coaches, instead of getting extra pay, get compensatory time. This means that if a coach of quitting practices with his team for two hours after school, he does not have to report to school until 11 a.m. W ith the present number of p.e. teachers, it is impossible to give all the coaches compensatory time. Also a coach is not allowed to have a homeroom and must have his free time in the morning. To remedy the situation, Mr. John S. England, president school. of the Home and School Association, is going to ask for parents to supervise the practices of the golf and tennis teams. For the actual matches, the principal is going to ask some of the fac­ ulty members to act as rotating supervisors for the teams. W ith the whole city affected by this decision of the D.C. Board Why not? of Education, many public schools might not even have tennis or golf teams. Therefore, it is possible that Wilson will win both golf and tennis titles, not by actually playing, but by being the only school to field teams.
