Each side was equipped with modern showers, mirrors, supply rooms and offices for the gym teachers. These locker rooms are used by the girls and hoys daily gym classes and sports activities.

Isn’t it amazing what a wig, a little makeup and a dress can do? Rosemary Josh and Joyce Mills, two drama club members, are showing Dick Neely some pointers they have learned from Miss Crauder. The Drama Club, organized by Miss Crauder this year, marks another milestone. Studying scripts, makeup, and correct usage of a mic¬ rophone has in the past been limited to people in drama classes or casts of either of the plays. But now anyone can join, attend these meet¬ ings, and earn credits toward the National Thespian Troupe. The Projectionists Club, a chapter of the National Projectionist Club of America, was organized here this year. The membership is limited to hoys who operate the projectors, recorders, and phonographs. During their monthly meetings, Miss Kubal teaches the members such things as splicing film and mak¬ ing minor repairs on the equipment. The Modern Language Club is a name given to three different sections of language classes. This includes two Spanish classes and one French class. The membership is limited to students who have passed one semester of work in either language. This organization meets during the various class periods along with Mr. Naylor, their sponsor. It looks as though the Projec¬ tionist Club members are enjoy¬ ing one of the many movies they have shown throughout the year. The four boys are Bob Kauffman, Bob Spry, Rush Banton and Herb Entenmann. “Oui, je parle francais.” Pauline Walz, Bob Harris and Marion Cox seem quite interested in listening to Joyce Bowers recording in French.

Dick Zurbriggen, Duane Hinton, Gary Love and Wayne Nelson now find drawing a pleas¬ ure as they work at the new tables provided for the drawing classes. NEW EQUIPMENT PLANNED FOR SHOP Page twenty-seven Mr. Church, Mr. Hale and Mr. DuVall re¬ port that much equipment is being bought and made for the new shop building. Five new wood working benches, which cost $210 each and will seat four boys, have been purchased. New cabinets are being made, and several old tables and typewriter stands are being refinished in the wood shop. The mechanical drawing department bought twenty-six new drawing tables, cost¬ ing $119 each. These tables have six drawers —so that each boy can have a drawer of his own. Other new equipment includes an electrical bench which seats eight boys and the top for a new sheet metal bench, also accommo¬ dating eight boys. These two benches cost a total of $312. Thirteen roll-away tool carts will be made in the shop by the boys them¬ selves. The carts will hold all the necessary tools. By making much of the equipment for the shop, the boys are saving the school a lot of money.
