E., Health Mr. Greig receives basketball trophy from Senior class president, Roger Sanders. Behind and to the right of Roger are coaches Kingham, Vlcek and Fritz. Good Physical Condition Aids Mental Growth Exercises - more exercises - routine complaints about sore muscles echoing from both the large and small gyms. Mrs. Ellery and Mr. Vlcek have really carried through a vigorous program of varied and complex activities this year. This program has perhaps produced a somewhat healthier and more cor-ordinated student body. Basketball, volleyball, tumbling, baseball; these were but a few of the programs carried through. Besides the time they have spent in class, many students also participated in the noon intra-murals programs of volleyball and similar sports. Coach Vlcek presented several awards to deserving athletes at the final awards assembly. Tommy Leatherwood and LeRoy Phillips examine the structure of the eye.

Practical And Artistic Skills Developed Mr. Ken Snoddy B.S. Northeastern State College Metal Shop, Arts and Crafts Mechanical Drawing Mr. Paul Snider B.S., M. Ed Oregon State College Woodshoo, General Mechanics During the latter part of May, beautiful woodcraft articles were displayed in the trophy window of the school. These projects typified the work that has been done by the woodshop class, and, with many other artistic objects, were shown at an annual open house held Wednesday, May 25. The industrial arts section of the high school combines not only woodshop, but also mechanical drawing, arts and crafts, and metal shop. This department also produces the props and backdrops for the school plays, a service for which the recognition they receive is much too meager. Three ardent fishermen, Jim Hefner, Dennis Armstrong, and Lawrence Gill entertain Shop Open House guests by demonstrating the correct procedure for making sinkers.

FXN05 U5 FBRTHBR THHI Final Activities Climax Year The year started, for the seniors, with a characteristic surge of excitement. The realization that this is our last year made us eager to choose our class colors, motto, and flower. Members of the announcement committee also picked out four announcements from a field of approximately twenty; the seniors then cast their ballots for their favorite. Our projects this year included an unproductive sale of arm bands and pillows. To off-set this loss we sold booster buttons and sponsored two after-game dances. Measuring for caps and gowns took place in the counciling room under the direction of Mr. Schmidt, who with Mrs. Thora Watson, serves as advisor to the Senior class. A small amount of embarrasment was experienced by the girls as they revealed their weight. The Senior Ball featured a unique setting upon the theme Wonderland By Night. The main attractions were the announcement of the May Court and the striking decorations of red and black. As graduation approached, the usual symptoms were noted by the teachers. Senioritis , a common ailment, seemed to have hit once more. However, we survived the epidemic to carry on through the activities of baccalaureate and commencement exercises.
