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.
