ndustrial Students Perfect Skills in Shops Industrial arts help students learn trades which will be useful to them fol- lowing graduation. This phase of education ranges from on-the-job training in Distributive Edu- cation to preparing stage sets for assem- blies to planning a house in drafting classes. Other classes in this field of education include vocational auto mechanics, power mechanics, vocational machine shop, ma- chine shop and Woodworking I and II. Students in these classes are supplied with a great variety of equipment and ma- chinery as well as highly competent super- vision. The students work on various pro- jects which require individual initiative and creativity. In addition. to valuable vocational training, this department also provides students with the opportunity to develop an interest in many hobbies such as photo- graphy, stagecraft, woodworking and metal crafts. Basic instruction here provides the students with the incentive to do their work well and within assigned limits. Coop- eration is also instilled.

Band Strives for Perfection This year's marching band worked very hard to provide half-time and pre- game entertainment at the football games. For example, on one nine-minute show the band spent approximately 19 hours of practice time. The band again this year participated in the District Marching Contest, which was held in Bartlesville and received a I, superior, in inspection and a II, excellent, for their contest rou- tine. They also attended the OU Band Day. The drum major was Don Sanders, a senior. The majorettes were Glenda Bran- aman, head majorette, and Teresa Meech, seniorsg Vicki Caffey, juniorg and jean Probis, sophomore. This year the band, directed by Mr. jerry Burdick, held a Field Music Con- cert in which the marching band per- formed, in concert formation, the music they played on the football field. Enter- tainment at this concert was also provided by the Warriorettes drill team, the cheer- leaders and the majorettes.
