Classes in typing, stenography, business English, commercial arithmetic, salesmanship, com- mercial law, bookkeping, business principles, office practices, and transcription are among the courses available for commercially minded students.

I24I Two of the most practical skills a girl can master are those twin essentials for home-making: cooking and sewing. East's home economics department pre- pares girls for this all important job. Beginning and advanced food making and sewing, dress designing and social living give students interested in these fields an abundant opportunity for gaining a high degree of proficiency. Woodwork, metal work, crafts, and mechanical drawing courses give an opportunity to those boys and girls interested in the industrial arts to try their skills in this field. Practical handicraft, vocational exploration and training and hobby work are among the objectives of this department.

Music and Art The music department at East is well equipped either to develop budding talent or to provide something useful for leisure hours. Vocal subjects range from advanced a Cappella through beginning a Cappella and selected girls' glee to girls' glee and voice. Instrumentally speaking, advanced or- chestra and advanced band head the list, with marching band, second band, inter- mediate orchestra and beginning instru- ments class following. Harmony, for ad- vanced students, and music appreciation, for everyone, are in the theoretical class. East's music department presents many concerts each yeas, which are well attended by the public. East's excellent art department provides students with training along several different lines. The drawing and painting classes make posters for Red Cross and bond drives, for dances and many other activi- ties. An advanced class in cre- ative art is offered to promising students, and to those who are planning to go into the com- mercial art field are excellent opportunities. The work of East students is amply dis- played to the public, and is often much admired. Below: WANTED BY WALT DISNEY Above SWEET AND LOW-AND LOVELY l26l
