SHURELINTRS TTARN PRACTICAL ARTS Demonstrating a few of the skills learned in his wood shop class is Mike Krusell. Masked men are a common sight in the metal shop. On the top left is Terry Larson with his instructor, Mr. David Presznecker. Testing his receiver with an oscilloscope is Walt Scott from the radio shop. Bilau was the dish prepared by Miss Sughra Aziz, an ex- change teacher from Pakistan, for this foods class. 24 SHUP NUISES A great variety of noises comes each day from the shop wing. Noise, however, is not all that's made. Besides learning the basic principles of wood, metal, and electricity, these boys have the opportunity to apply their skills on modern machinery. They may make such protects as bowls, cedar chests, go-carts, radio receivers and transmitters. Their work provides them with a background for repairing, operating, and for vocational training. Whatever the reason for taking an industrial arts course, students who do so are provided with training and principles which will prove useful both now and later in life. ARTS UT HUMEMAKINB Two units of home economics are a requirement for the graduation of girls, and those who fulfill this requirement are seldom sorry at the end of their course. The curriculum includes many courses not only in general and advanced homemaking, but also in tailor- ing, home furnishings, clothing, and foods. Future homemakers learn budgeting, home management, meal preparation, and clothing construction, besides pro- viding academic knowledge, all courses admittedly have practical application.

From the master control stand, the instructor may listen to student responses. Pictured is Mrs. Katherine Timar. PARLEZ-VUUS FRANCAIS? Parlez-vous Francais? was for many years perhaps the only phrase that supposedly French-speaking stu- dents could understand in a conversation with the average Frenchman. The sad fact was that very few foreign language students could understand their language as it was spoken by a native, and for this reason the foreign language laboratory has been more helpful and successful than ordinary classroom tech- niques. The student sits in half-partitioned booths with headphones over his ears and a microphone in his hand. The headphones enable him to hear tapes of the language in a native's tongue or his own teacher's voice. In either case he is helped to improve his com- prehension, and the close-up of his teacher's enuncia- tion will often help him with his own conversation. French is this student's foreign language elective, but the laboratory may be useful for all language study. Guest speakers often address social studies classes. Here Mrs. Joan EmfieId's economics class and Dr Wade Kn1seley's world problems class listen to a lecture.
