Home Ec. cooks carry-out meals for staff The Home Ec. IV students were kept very busy this year. Along with baking homemade cakes to complete dinners for the faculty members, they prepared a reception for the foreign ex- change students which featured foods from their homelands. All home ec. students were hard at work preparing the fashions to be shown in their an- nual style show. Some cooking classes tested recipes on such foods as candy, fruites, and vari- ety meats; others visited local supermarkets. On December 1st all of the se- nior girls taking home economics took the Betty Crocker test. Se- nior, Teresa Glass won the school ' s Homemaker of Tomor- row award for her knowledge of home economics. Teresa re- ceived a charm and had her test entered in competition for state and national honors. a Seventh graders learn that placing a pattern correctly and cutting the ma- terial are necessary to make a well con- structed dress, b As a finale to their child care instruction, the seventh grade girls play ring-around-the-rosy with two through five year-olds.
