Right: Displaying his abilities in Drafting, Leslie Hickey starts on an intricate working drawing. Emphasis on technique and qual- ity was evident in home economics and shop classes as students found that their hands were essential in their work. In every class offered by the home economics and industrial educa- tion departments, students were contin- uously working with their hands in a creative manner. In Drafting, students were involved in producing detailed drawings of blueprints while those in Foods experimented in the preparation of interesting dishes ranging from cook- ies to decorated cakes. New in the home economics department was the Personal Use Clothing course which found stu- dents employing their hands to the tasks of repairing sewing machines, do- ing laundry, making alterations or doing remodeling work on their clothes. Besides having the essential re- quirement of good usage of the hands, one needed only to have an interest in these areas. Roles once dominated by one sex were opened to all students. Both Mr. Reiley and Mrs. Brandon, de- partment heads, encouraged more male and female students to take advantage of the practical experience available. INDUSTRIAL ED I9 I-ffl.. W

l i The Building Trades classes have been successful in completing two houses in the past two years which sold for 529,800 and 532500. The houses were sold by Rogers G' jones Realty and Rock Realtors. The Building Trades project began two years ago when the Anderson Board of Realtors said that they would back the project. The project got its mortgages from Anderson Federal Sav- ings and First Savings and Loan As- sociation. The project was formed as, and still remains, a non-profit corpor- ation. An application was required from every student in this class. The stu- dents had to maintain the same start- dards as if they were actually working for a company. Each student spent 25 per cent of his time in the classroom where he practiced on the skills he put to use on location and 75 per cent of his time actually on location. Every student was given the chance to work , on something that interested him. Step-by-step progress began when the site was selected in Southview Ad- j dition on Saddle Lane. The site was then excavated and the foundation poured. The house was constructed. and a buyer was found. 2. rw.. F- f nga.
