Every year, for the fall,
winter and spring sports, Dr.
Stewart a prominent doctor in
Chattooga and Mrs. Stewart,
a teacher at Chattooga High
School, give physicals to t%e
sports teams in the school
gymnasium. ‘“These
physicals,”” said Mrs. Stewart,
“‘are given free of charge to all
athletes, because a lot of
students can'’t pay the cost of
a physical given in a doctor’s
office.”
Dr. Stewart has been in
practice as a doctor for 32
years while Mrs. Stewart has
taught school for 14 years.
They have been giving free
physicals at CHS for 14 years.
The cost for someone having a

McDonald
Visits CHS
Congressman Larry
McDonald came to Chattooga
High School Friday, April 15,
to talk to the juniors and
seniors. He talked about the
history of government and
how it came into being. He
talked about the defense spen
ding and nuclear war and
weapontry. There was a vote
taken on who thought there
should be an increase or
decrease of defense spending.
The majority wanted increas
ed defense spending. Con
gressman McDonald is for the
increase in defense spending.
He is for the selling of na
tional forest land which will be
part of Chattooga County.
The question was asked on
what he felt about teen-age
minimum wage. He was for
less than minimum wage
because it would provide more
jobs.
Donna Espy said, ‘I went
in the lunchroom with my own
opinion, but Congressman
McDonald gave me another
side of the story. Overall, I
feel it was very interesting, it
oFened my eyes to a lot of pro
blems that I didn’t previously
