Climaxing over a year and a half studying and planning, the college-lype registration program put into effect during the two weeks preceding the opening of school was cautiously deemed a success by its founder, Wade Askew, vice principal in charge of curriculum. Several advantages of the new program over the old process that have already become apparent were cited by Mr. Askew. There are a minimum of overloaded classes, significant ly (ewer than in years past, and the roll sheets for individual classes are the most accurate they have ever been. One of the main objectives, that of avoiding the approximately program changes occurring each year, seems lo have been met.

The new registration system has succeeded in reducing these changes hy 70-80 per cent. Arcadia swimming standout Bill Patterson relumed from Chicago in September afler competing In the 1975 United States Olympic Swimming Team try-uuts. The sensation strove lo earn a place in the 200 meter backslroke but missed Ihe Olympic team by 1.2 seconds. Ranked 22 before the trials began, Patterson swam a blistering 2:07.9 in (he prelims, qualifying for fourth in (he finals. In the finals he was clocked at 1.08.79 good enough for a six(h place.

Bill is hardly disappointed about his showing at the trials. '76 will definitely be my best chance to go to the Olympics. Four years of college training and experience should help me a lot," he said The first fifth quarter program sponsored by Arcadia High School was a rousing success, filling the Girls' Gym to overflowing. Following the San Marino football game two bands, "Kite" and "Revolution" played to the crowds. In addition lo dancing and watching the bands and light show, a catered food service was available to students.
