Industrial Arts Added DCE, Advanced Wood Fourteen seniors participated in Jackson ' s first Diversified Coopera- tive Education program. Besides at- tending morning classes, these stu- dents held part-time jobs in the after- noon. A DCE class, taught by Mr. Donald Baldridge, and the half day ' s work earned them two credits toward graduation while giving training for future employment. Advanced classes in machine shop and woodshop have been added. In woods, students work on desks, end tables, and bookcases. The drafting course has been expanded to include further use of printing equipment. The class printed tickets and foot- ball and play programs. A photo- graphic darkroom was gradually be- coming equipped for developing and printing pictures as well as for use in offset printing. GIRLS AS WELL as boys took DCE and worked part time while still attending classes. Sue Woodcox was employed as a sales clerk. BOB HOFFER learned the basic drawing skills in Mr. Gartee ' s drafting class. AMONG THE LAST shop areas to be ready for use but one of the best equipped now is auto mechanics. The boys must master a text- book to their instructor ' s satisfaction before they are ready to work on cars. Randy Bradley is putting his knowledge to use. 22

Art Classes and Glee Club EVERETT GRIMMER molds in clay the face of Miss Franci Campi, Mr. Thomas ' s student teacher. CLAY HEADS are examples of the creativity and talent of Jackson art students. As most students were still tumb- ling out of bed, the 60 members of the Jackson Glee Club assembled in their special classroom for morning practice. Under the direction of Miss Ruby Guilliams, they rehears- ed for assemblies and various com- munity programs. The group sang for such events as the Jackson Dedi- cation, the Christmas Assembly, WSBT ' s Afternoon Show, PTA Council Founders Day Banquet, and Baccalaureate. Added to the art curriculum this year were classes in ceramics, sculp- ture, painting, commercial art, and graphics. Art students formed their own heads in clay, designed covers for the student directory and year- book, carved linoleum blocks for original prints, shaped bowls and vases on a potter ' s wheel, and filled the halls with colorful art projects. MYRA DEEPE was Anne Laurie in the musi- cal Around the World in Eighty Days. 24
