Some of the media techniques are charcoal, pastel, chalk, pen and ink etchings, water color, still life, fashion illustra- tion, figure drawing and oil paintings. Oil paint- ings techniques are done through the use of the acrylic polymer emulsion technique. The students also studying lettering and lay-out composition.

Speech Developes Self-Expression This year the drama department 81 speech classes of Aldine were kept busy developing self-expression by accomplishing many interest- ing things. Through the combined efforts of the speech classes and the Thespian Club, the pro- duction of Our Town , was one example of this. It was staged on December 9, 1965. This group of students also produced the play the Heritage of Wimpole Street , for contest on April 2, 1966, and for presentation to the student body at Aldine and the three district Junior Highs. On February 11, 1966, they attended a Speech Tournament at Sam Rayburn High School. The future plans of the speech classes and the Thespian Club included a tournament at Milby High School and a field trip to Sam Houston State Teacher's College, March 18, to see The Three Sisters by Anton Chekov.
