journalism Under the leodership of Dove Spurgeon (top), mountaineer editor, and John Guse (bottom), whispering pine editor, the school paper and annual were published for the students of E.P.H.S. In addition to jobs on the staffs, the class showed qualities of journalism through fiery editorials, keeping dirt out of the humor column, hot air out of news stories and themselves out of hot water' Last minute rushes for news, rewrites, sizing headlines and proofreading were all part of the work. Eoch member of the class wrote a variety of material and did a variety of jobs. No one will forget the thrill of seeing his first story in print or the privilege of a by-line.

homemaking Today's changing world makes it quite necessary for people to have preparation before spending their lives in the world. The homemaking department provides much of this preparation for girls through the elements of food preparation, ettiquette, better management, better business, budgets and sewing. In sewing, the high school girls learned to fully line garments. Karen Williams ond Dona Browning won't forget how to take out stitching and sew it over until perfection is reached Formal debates were held and skits were presented. The girls debated on the advantages and disadvantages of going steady which proved interesting because the girls going steody were for it, and those who don't weren't! 10
