Spanish and French students accomplished this by translatingstories and plays. In the Latin department special stress was laid on the conjugating of verbs, as it is a basis for all of the other languages offered to students. No matter what time of day one happened to stroll through the halls of Albert Lea High School, he was almost certain to hear one of the music groups prac- ticing. Including the choruses, bands, and orchestra, this department made a fine showing at assemblies, games, dances, the music festival and special concerts. The hand was prominent in parades. The work done by the art students could- be seen throughout the school and in business places uptown. Typical phases of their work included sketching, oil painting, posters and tinting. A special class for senior high students was started this year. Their special projects included designing covers for record albums and folios for their work. They also did portraitsfand still life paintings in oil. Physical education was taken twice weekly by soph- omores and junior high students. The juniors and seniors substituted one of the periods for a course in health or first aid. The gym periods offered practice in competitive games, social and old time dancing, calisthenics and other recreations. Geraldine Ryberg Health. Physical I Education CL..-NA.

Radio fundamentals and construction of one, two or five tube radios was the accomplishment of the radio and electricity shop students. A permanent vocation for students who do not in- tend to go to college after graduation was the job of Norman K. Bailey and the diversified occupations class. Students were employed in various business cstablishments in the city. Under the auspices ol' the agriculture class and Donald Paulson rural boys will lze better farmers for tomorrow. Agricultural classes provide an over-all view of the general field of farming. After studyingrrprice fluctuations they have knowl- edge of common problems of buying and selling. A good farming background is received after judging the chief good and bad points of all livestock. Grace Murdock Robert Myers Commercial Chorus Ruth Nelson ll. S.
