Students en- joyed the change of pace and variety that form a part of the electives program. Headed by Mrs. Watts, the typing department was beneficial to students planning to continue their education or to pursue professional careers such as secretarial work. Homemaking, under the direction of Mrs. Wright, provided a creative venture for girls, while shop, taught by Mr. Brashier, gave boys this same opportunity. The speech program was first on the list of many students wishing to better themselves in this important area of communication, while the art classes, under Mrs. Sims, were enjoyed by many. Mrs. Wright helps students prepare new spring frocks.

Music Composing the musical and cultural background of Wingfield were the band and choral music. Under the leadership of Mr., Arthur Goodsell, the Wingfield marching band made its first debut in the early part of the year. Talent was also exemplified by the or- chestra and stage band. Performing for the student body and various out- side organizations was the concert choir, directed by Mrs. Massey. To complete the musical program the choral music classes studied the fundamental prin- ciples of music as well as famous composers. One and two and . . MRS. BARBARA ARTHUR F.
