Home ec. and vo. ag. classes provide services The vo. ag. classes, taught by Mr. John Rist, provided services to the school by constructing the runway for the long jump and pole vault on the track field. They also helped the community by building a dugout and painting equipment in the park. In their classes they completed many projects while improving skills in the areas of welding and drilling. In its second year, the home ec. department, un- der the direction of Mrs. Kay Wolff, continued to educate students in the areas of nutrition, home management, sewing, and consumerism. Once again the home ec. classes provided a service to the grade school by helping them learn more about foods and nutrition. Mrs. Wolff was also the librarian for the elemen- tary and high school departments. TOP: Freshmen Michele Gauer and Barb Bollinger watch as Lori Heilman presses a Christmas cookie out of the dough.
