Our music department, the envy of the county, is guided by Mr. Frederick Batorski for instrumental music and Mr. Paul Wright for vocal. Mr. Batorski received both a BA and MA from Boston University while Mr. Wright did his studying at Princeton and Syracuse.

MISS REID - Sewing Department MRS. MEMMELAAR - Cooking Department NEEDLES FLY AMD BEATERS U WTRl. fN WOMEMAWNS DEPARTMENT Nestled in its own comer of the building, the homemaking department is important to every girl. In seventh and eighth grade, homemaking is required. In high school, although it is optional, many girls find it worthwhile. The main project this year as every year, was their production, Fashions for Fun, a show exclusively for the girls, featuring Andre's House of Fashion. Miss Judith Reid and Mrs. Memmelaar capably direct the department. Miss Reid, Goshen's petite, blond seamstress, received her BS degree at Pennsylvania State University. She is forever checking seams and zippers while trying to keep the class quiet. When something is cooking next door, it is sure to be one of Mrs. Memmel-aar’s classes. She received her BS degree at Plattsburg State Teachers College. Mrs. Memmelaar enjoys sampling the food her proficient cooks have whipped up. Together, Miss Reid and Mrs. Memmelaar prepare many girls as future homemakers, not only in class, but also in the Future Homemakers of America. The officers of this group were president, Kathy Tear, vice president, Kitty Forney, secretary-treasurer, Rose Kintz. Homemaking is still the most popular career for American women, and preparation for it is not neglected at Goshen High. FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA - FIRST ROW; E. Comas, P. Kurtz, M. Diana, L.
