William Lau- mann, headed the art department this year. The classes were moved to the art suite. This division for the art de- partment was a transformation from the old shop rooms on first floor. The suite provided a more spacious work- ing area. Desks, with easel tops that could be raised for students' drawing convenience, replaced the old tables of the previous area. A different kiln and ceramics room were also added to the art department facilities. The separate ceramics room kept the pottery mess all in one room, and the heat of the kiln did not affect the temperature of the art room. Art lll students made projects in fields of their own choice. Choices for the projects were made from the bas- ic skills learned in Art l and ll. Some of the projects the Art lll students did were sculpturing, jewelry, oil painting, water colors, and drawing. Frottages, which involved the transfer of magazine pictures to another surface, and collages, a collection of ideas, were also tried as new forms of art. NEW EASEL DESKS are helpful in water color paintings to provide the artist more room for brush strokes. WILLIAM LAUMANN - Art I,lI, Art Club Adviser. Not Pictured.

Business Data Processing Class Learns Keypunch Use Available for the first time was the data processing course, which consisted ofthe use of machines such as the IBM keypunch, sorter, collator, producer, and 402 accounting machine. The course was available to three classes with 12 to 14 students in each class. The 1968-69 school year saw many additions to busi- ness equipment. Several new typewriters were added, along with many permanent screens for audio-visual use. Two dictation units, a cash register, and an electron- ic printing calculator were also put into use. Two teachers joined the business department. lVlr. Nl. J. Cl3obJ Midthun took over Marketing I and ll classes and the diversified program, replacing lVlr. Norman Bailey, who received a promotion. Mr. Harold W. Slocum taught the automatic data processing course. Academics - 23
