dfriuing fo per ecf larefienf clay mefAocl.4 When is the left turn signal used? What does a flashing yellow light mean? What are the Illinois speed laws? These questions could by answered by the students in Mr. Swan's safe driving class. Since September, I958, all sophomores have been required by state law to take a nine-week drivers education course consisting of the basic fundamentals necessary to safe and sane driving. A planned schedule of study is provided with the help of textbooks dealing with every phase of driving. The students become acquainted with the mechanisms of the vehicle as well as the rules of the road. After these preliminaries are all over, the behind the wheel driving begins. Parallel parking, U-turns, turnabouts, and many other skills are mastered. When the day arrives on which the students drive for the state inspector, many a proud face is seen as one by one they receive their licenses. In Industrial Arts and Vocational Education classes, the students develop skills in the handling and understanding of the tools, materials, and the processes of manufacturing, which lead them into the field of industry. Their interest in woodworking, mechanical drawing, electricity, and working with metals is a contributing factor to good personal traits, objective thinking, problem solving and the choosing of a vocation. fvs MR.
