WV'-H Experimentation Is Keg to Creativitg lf CHHS sometimes resembled an art exhibition more than a high school, it was because of the efforts of the art classes. The works of art that often de- corated the halls were the creations of Heights students. Experimentation was this year's pass- word for the art classes. A flexible schedule allowed different classes to spend varying amounts of time on their activities. The students expressed origi- nality through such mediums as pottery, ceramics, wood cuts, ink sketching, and oil painting. A new means of expression, movie- making, was offered to Art IV partici- pants. The students did their own pho- tography in creating experimental films, which resembled moving collages.

Kitchens Acquire a Masculine Influence Cream sauces and blenders replaced the usual valve oil and engines for sev- eral CHHS boys this year. A new course, Food Service, taught boys the basic con- cepts of culinary art. Home and Family Living classes were also opened toboys, but none regis- tered. Featured in the course were guest speakers and panels composed of par- ents and faculty members. Students also visited the Minnesota Treatment Center for Emotionally Disturbed children. Several girls from the Home Fc classes were involved in a fall fashion show sponsored by Simplicity. To end the year, Home Ec students took a tour of Betty Crocker kitchens. Examining their buffet table before guests arrive, Home Ec Ill students Cindy Holm and Jackie Norling find everything to be in its place.
