SIGHT SAVING GROUP HAS HEAD- QUARTERS IN ALCOVE AT HUGHES The Alcove on the third floor of Hughes High School is the study hall for the Sight Saving class, composed of a group ol students whose vision does not permit them to do the work of the regular grades under ordi- nary conditions. This study hall is equipped with movable, adjustable, dull-surfaced desks, and is well lighted. A student eligible to this class is assisted in assignment preparation by a student reader, chosen from his own group and with high academic standing. This is not a segregated group, both pupil and reader reciting with the regular classes of visually normal students. Most texts are available in large type, as are also Braille texts for the sight saving students. All assignments and home work are prepared at school with the use of typewriters to lessen the eye strain. Statistics show that one out of every five hundred school population is in need of the advantages of this type of education. Graduates in the past years, guided in the choice of an occupation that might be less injurious to their eyes have entered many fields of business. Miss Laura Cunningham supervises the sight saving work. Jack Gilla demonstrates Braille. Page 23

The functions of this club are what the name indicates, creating school spirit and pep at basketball and football games. A large num- ber of the student body at basketball and football games get that good old desire to shout when the pep club sounds the start. At the X VlLl1l'0WN game, the Hughes drum-majorettes presented the Xillithrow drum-majorettes with smart corsages. A sale of tickets in the front corridors for the double header was taken over by the mem- bers of the Pep Club, who proved very successful in their task. Girls garbed in BRlGHT sweaters paraded at the various athletic events to visualize the spirit which the Pep Club wants to foster in the student body. Page 22 L .,
