Home Economics Students Acquire Practical Arts Homemaking through practical experience is taught to enterprising young ladies of Holy Cross who wish to increase their knowledge of domestic living. Sewing machines and kitchen units provide the proper equipment and atmosphere for the performance of the daily chores of a home economist. Dressmaking, designing, utilizing color principles, and planning wardrobes and shop- ping lists are among the many aspects of their training. Gne of the highlights of the course is participation in the annual Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow Contest. This extensive training adds to the stu- dents' freedom of choice, not only in the prob- lems of home lite, but also in encounters with the business of planning well, buying eco- nomically, and preparing attractively. Planning her work at the sewing machine is Louise Staley, while Eileen Opre, Patricia Hovart, Natalie Ham- ilton, Marie Woods, Barbara Harris and Rita Arm- strong work together to complete their products.

Driver Education Addeds , Physical Fitness Stressed With added emphasis being placed on the physical fitness of American youth, the phy- sical education department of Holy Cross has strengthened its course. President Kennedy has stressed repeated- ly the importance of a strong and vital na- tion--of a physically fit young America. As a result, more stress is being placed on exer- cises and contact sports which help to de- velop a keen sense of coordination and a spirit of teamwork. This year something new has been added to the juniors' course of study. Driver Educa- tion is now an essential part of their curri- culum. A passing grade in this subject com- pensates for the written test accompanying application for a driving permit. By teach- ing the basic fundamentals of safety habits in driving, Holy Cross hopes to produce com- petent and careful drivers.
