Students Improve Cultural Background Various art and music courses offered both basic and advanced instruction. Fundamental concepts were taught in junior high to improve individual cultural background and to stimulate interest in elective classes. Electives provided advanced training for the more talented. Students explored the world of art under the instruction of Miss Miller and Mr. McClenahan. A variety of art media accommodated the di- verse interests of students and exposed them to the full spectrum of creative and commercial art. Mr. McClenahan's talents also included directing the senior class variety show. Mr. Moser, Mr. Rothenberg, Mr. Stahley, Mr. Sell, and Mr. Long developed student interest in music. Students learned the essentials of music in junior high and later received advanced in- struction in instrumental and general music electives. The department also helped musically inclined youths develop their talents and seek expression through extra-curricular activities such as band and chorus which augmented classroom instruction and provided the basis for many lively concerts and assemblies.

SCI-IULTES-Office Prac- Business education provided students with practical vocational experience achieved through two specialized curricula-clerical and secreta- rial. By co-ordinating classroom studies with ac- tual office practice, the department molded the secretaries, accountants, salesmen 'and other personnel who will assume leadership in tomor- row's business world. A variety of courses fitted students with the necessary qualifications for useful employment. Teachers stressed proficiency in the basic man- ual skills peculiar to business but did not forget the importance of the English or math essential to the success of all good employees. A senior course in office practice offered in co-operation with local merchants helped students bridge the chasm between theory and practice. The interests of many members of the busi- ness department extended beyond the classroom. Mrs. Yeager advised the Future Teachers of America, Mr. Hassler the Future Business Leaders of America.
