H orrze Lzvzng, Industrial Arts Provide In home living, girls received practical train- ing in homemaking, housekeeping, and the so- cial graces. Instruction in -cooking, sewing, budgeting, child care, and etiquette comprised the diversified curriculum. Under the instruc- tion of Mrs. Reeder, Mrs. Trump and Mrs. Frankenfield, students began their training in the seventh grade. Senior high girls wishing to augment this training had the opportunity to take home living as an elective course. In May the home living department sponsored a colorful fashion show. Girls modeled their own wardrobe creations. Showings emphasized that an extensive Wardrobe required only a little time and ingenuity. HOME LIVING: BEVERLY I. FRANKENFIELDQ JANE M. TRUMPg JESSIE S.

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.

Practical Ana' Vocational Expcrzcnce Industrial Arts offered the opportunity for boys to learn to create with their hands. In the junior high a student was first exposed to a general shop course. Later, he could choose a particular shop as an elective or elect to major in industrial arts in his junior and senior years. Boys applied their knowledge of the graphic arts by printing the posters and bulletins for the school: students gained valuable experience in carpentry and metalwork while working on indi- vidual projects. Shop teachers, too, handled ad- ditional assignments. Mr. Sheckler served as tennis coach, and Mr. Child supervised an ex- cellent stage crew for all productions. INDUSTRIAL ARTS: WILLIAM T.
