Jewelry Shop is a busy time for Raymond Seaton, Carol Vaughan, Robert McGregor, and Neil Sunt. Mr. Slate, Mann, Mather, Johnson, and Lokcrson study the model made by Gordon Rutherford in last year's Architectural Drawing Class. It was fifth place winner in the National Ford Industrial Arts Competition. Chester Humphrey and Jack Frcdinc apply the press to a dictionary stand which is being repaired in Wood Shop. PRACTICAL ARTS From rocks, sheets of silver, and imagination come ID bracelets, tic clasps, and rings. From blocks of wood, sheets of copper, and rolls of wire come pipe racks, candle snufTcrs, and mailboxes. With chips flying, the buzz of saws filling the air, and ambitions soaring, we pound at our trays, lamps, or tables, always wondering how the project will look when finished. In art metal, jewelry arts, mechanical drawing, and woodworking classes, we learn to be skillful artisans with soldering irons, etching tools, saws, and patience and hard work. With little talent and lots of energy and enthusiasm, out- standing results arc obtained. Arnold Croddy, B. S., M. Ed. . . . Joseph Sagneri, B. S.—-Stage Crew. Albert W. Bender, B.

Besides football, basketball, and baseball for the boys, there was tumbling, track, and soccer. In gym classes we drill on rules, correct our posture, and leam first-aid. We stumble through the crowded showers, pay our ten cents to redeem our lost clothes, complain every day, and enjoy every minute of it. It isn’t every department that has a curriculum to fit every season! 20
