Mr. Webb, a veritable cyclone on feet, has charge of the band, orchestra, a capella choir, boys' and girls, glee clubs, and instru- ment classes. The operetta and concert are pro- duced through his effort and supervision. That a study of a foreign language can be most interesting has been discovered by Cleve- landis Latin and French students. Although our language department has only one teacher, Miss Ricketts, it offers a great deal to the student of Latin or French. Keeping the students physically fit is the duty of the physical education department. Badmin- ton, ping-pong, tennis, volleyball, hockey, bas- ketball, baseball, and soccer are taught to the students. Miss Waller, girls, instructor, and Mr. Maginnis meet almost every student in the school in one or the other of their classes. Home economics, to the girls is what indus- trial arts are to the boys. Cooking and sewing, home management, and home mechanics are all included in this department. The home me- chanics class, conducted by Mr. Timbers, enables the girls to work in the shops and learn how to repair and refinish furniture. Miss Pritchard has charge of the remainder of the classes. Almost every student, at one time or another, runs into a wall which is seemingly insurmount- able. At that time, Miss Hall and Miss Eide, Cleveland's counsellors, offer priceless assistance. Many a student has been helped along by this capable pair. The extensive activities of Cleveland's Boys' and Cfirls' Clubs are carried on under the watch- ful guidance of Miss Crim and Mr. Garrison, ad- visers. They also counsel students on social and occupational activities. Supervising the students during study periods LEAVITT LOWE MAGINNIS MA RK MCASSEY McINTl RE MCLARNEY Twelve

Every incoming fresh- man is started in this department in a com- munity life and civics class. World History and U. S. History follow in quick succession. If he desires, the student may then take courses in Pacific Rim and Economics. Those in Cleve- land's social science department are Mr. Imus, Mr. Starcevich, Mr. McLarney, Miss Jones, Miss Hart, Mr. Garrison, and Miss Crim. Courses in office training, typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, commercial English, law and arith- metic are all offered in Cleveland's commercial department. A sound-b?' as f 'f future use in the world of business is .nt for the student by Mr. Peltier, Mr. Lazard, Miss Hanson, and Miss Eide. Every student before he or she is graduated, must take a course in health education. In this class he learns what makes the human body work smoothly, he learns how diseases can be prevented and cured, he learns the harmful ef- fects of tobacco, alcohol, and narcotics, and he learns what foods he should and should not eat. Miss Jones conducts the girls' health classes, Mr. McLarney, the boys'. Almost every boy in high school is taking or has taken a course in industrial arts. After being taught how to run the machines in the wood and metal shops, the boys make furniture or other useful articles. Included in this department are architectural drawing classes. Mr. Timbers, Mr. Speer, and Mr. Rule have charge of Cleveland's industrial arts classes. A department with only one teacher is the art department. Miss Johnston conducts classes in the simple fundamentals of art, the more complicated drawing, sketching, or painting, and in costume designing and lettering.

Mrs. Garred reigns supreme in the cafeteriag Miss Wrenchy, in portable 3. Headquarters for the teachers is the office. Here mail is distributed, instructions are given, and notices are posted for the teachers' benefit. The office is in contact with every classroom by means of the telephone system. For reference or pleasure reading, the library is open daily from early in the morning until late in the afternoon. Miss Leavitt or one of her assistants is always on hand to help the student who doesn't know what he's looking for or where to find it. A separate organization, yet a part of Cleve- land, is the junior high school. As counsellor, Miss Simmons daily comes in contact with many of the junior high students, as she has charge of junior high attendance and advises the 8A's about the courses they are to take in high school. Two active junior high organizations are the Girls' and Boys, Clubs. Leading these are Miss Turner and Mr. Sells. The junior high is divided into departments similar to those of the high school. In the Eng- lish department are Mr. Lowe, Miss Millar, and Miss Turner, in the mathematics department, Mr. Donahue, Miss Mclntire, Mr. Sells, and Miss Simmons, art department, Mrs. Ketellg so- cial science department, Mr. Lowe, Miss Millar, and Miss Turner, industrial arts, Mr. Mark, home economics, Miss McAssey, music, Mrs. Smith, and natural science, Mr. Sells. The teachers, however, do not leave their work when they are through in the classroom. Throughout the school committees are func- tioning to promote a smoother school routine. Each group is made up of several teachers who meet before and after school to discuss all mat- ters pertaining to their committee. To promote effective running of the committees, each group has a chairman. High school committee leaders MILLAR PELTIER PRATT PRITCHARD RAINE RICKETTS RULE Thirteen
