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

EAT WELL -KEEP FIT teaming soups, meats, vege- tables, delicious green sal- ads, tempting desserts, cool and hot beverages! Is this a By- zantine feast or the menu of an exclusive restaurant? Neither. It is the daily offering of the Hughes lunchroom where tasty, nourishing food is appetizingly served. It may be a dish low in calories, high in nutrition value for a nymph who is trying to keep her slender figure, or a hearty meal for an athlete. The Camera Club has month- ly meetings under the direction of Mr. M. Doherty. At the beginning of the year a contest was held at each meeting. One of the activities of the club that is familiar to almost everybody in Hughes is the taking of home room pictures. This gives prac- tice to the members and adds money to the treasury. Moving pictures and slides taken by members borrowed from various companies are shown. Develop- ing, printing, and enlarging of black and white pictures is dis- cussed and demonstrated.
