F lffl The woodturning and machine shops INDUSTRIAL ARTS OODTURNING and cabinet making are featured in the various wood- shops situated in the basement of Central. Beautiful and useful house- hold articles and decorative objects are the result of interesting experi- ments with wood and sharp-edged tools. Model airplanes designed and con- structed by the students have often received awards and recognition in national competition for modeling ability. Mechanical drawing and home planning are offered as subjects. Although most of the classes are composed of boys, girls are allowed to participate, especially in the art wood work classes. Delicately carved coffee tables, magazine racks, book cases, and regula- tion size desks are among the objects fashioned by the nimble fingers of mechanically-minded students. The constant grinding, whizzing roar of the band saw and planes may be noise to an outsider, but it's music in the ears of Messrs. Lewis H. Harnsburger, Robert Berg, and Albert Schwabe. Down in the sub-basement--forging and the firing line. Page Twenty-four

EXPRESSION-MUSIC-ART lKE Word Congealed in northern air 'e-and yet tor the student of the EX- pression department that tongue-tied sensation never occurs. Instruction and friendly advice to each individual bring ease and poise. Stage presence, parliamentary law, after dinner speeches, announcements, and presentations are all included in this course. Harmony is essential in all walks of lite: therefore the excellent training to be received in Miss Lillian Knotts classes and glee clubs is sought by everyone interested in music. First poise, then harmony, then beauty belongs as the third part ot this art triumvirate. A mask, a poster, a design Worked out to express innate beauty and personality are a few ot the many interesting projects in the art classes. Emotions portrayed by the expression classes costuminq by the sketch class. Page 'Twentyfthree

Health serviceeewith a smile. The gym team-in the air PHYSICAL EDUCATION ECAUSE of its importance, physical education is a course required of every student. Under the able instruction of Mr. Frank Galles and Miss Emma Ryan Central's boys and girls learn to use various forms of gymnastic equipment. Under their supervision soccer, touchdown, fieldball, and horseback riding are taught in the fall. During the winter months hockey, tumbling, gymnastics, swimming, volley ball, and basketball are the chief activities. ln the spring teams in tennis, golf, track, and kittenball are organized. For many years these teams have received high ratings in the city and state, but it is to the idea of developing many students in athletics, rather than a few for competition, that the physical educational department has turned. With this in mind it has sponsored for several years an elaborate system of intramural sports for the benefit of the entire school.
