As cultural training is an important part of a well-balanced education, the Fine Arts Department of OHS has provided the student with the opportunity to study art and vocal or instrumental music. Another exciting year of music was provided through the combined efforts of Mr. B. J. Muus and Mr. Ray Makeever. These outstanding teachers are a credit to Ottawa High and we appreciate their hardwork. Miss Joy Kruger and Miss Rebec¬ ca Aten guide those talented OHS- ers in several different aspects of art. Creativity is the object, and the results come through, in still lifes, landscapes, perspectives, figure drawings, designs and several other crafts. Mary Bryan carefully chooses her next color with Miss Kruger ' s assis¬ tance. Mr. Makeever leads Pep Band in “Our Boys Will Shine

Through the years, all areas of science have become necessary and popular in our world. This is no exception at OHS where many developments and changes have occurred. Biology, which is usually taken by sophomores, offers much in study of Mother Nature. In addi¬ tion to examining life from its very beginning to the present, the bi¬ ology classes make collections dur¬ ing the year. These collections include insects, leaves and wild flowers. Another section of science, chemistry, is quite interesting and very necessary for the future. Because of the large amount of new developments made in this field, many young people are needed and encouraged to con¬ sider chemistry as a future career.
