Industrial Arts Add New Instructor lVlr. James Wittington joined the Edison faculty to assist Nlr. Donald Day in teaching industrial art classes. IVlr. Wittington taught Industrial Arts I, II, III, and IV. Industrial Arts I and II worked with welding, gen- eral metals, and woodworking. lVIr. Day taught Indus- trial Arts I and II and also Mechanical Drawing I and II. Industrial Arts I was divided into one semester of in-theshop and one semester of mechanical drawing. Industrial Arts III and IV could make their own pro- jects and would be graded according to the gradual completion of the project throughout the grading periodlsl. A Arts and Crafts, a course designed exclusively for seniors, was once again offered. Students in the class made a variety of projects ranging from tie clips and ear rings to clocks and leather boots.

Headphones Help in Commercial Teaching Ten courses were offered last year with no addition of new courses. Nlrs. Marjorie Lindecamp taught Typing I and Il and also Shorthand I which was taught on a self rate basis. Students were instructed by the teacher and were allowed to take tests when- ever they felt ready. Shorthand II was not offered last year because not enough students had signed up for the course. The headphones were used quite often, which, as both instructors stated, helped tremendously, especially for those students who needed practice or had make- up work. Pre-taped lessons were used through the headphones for those students. Nlrs. Sue Holder taught seven courses last year which included business law, economics, bookkeep- ing, personnel typing, typing I and II, notehand, and business principles, a course which is only in its second year here at Edison. Class sizes were about the same as last year. An emphasis on consumer education was made through- out the year because, as lVIrs. Holder described, is one of the items which is facing the nation now and still will in the future. Six new Royal manual typewriters were also pur- chased Iast year by the Board of Education. .
