 Students enrolled in social studies learned much about the past and pre- sent governments of the world as well as the history and foundation of the United States. World History and World Geography introduced students to numerous interests and concerns of other countries. Ancient History stu- dents learned, and rapidly forgot, that they were living in the Cenozoic per- iod for the past 70 million years. Ec- onomics and American Government classes enabled seniors to study do- mestic problems, while the juniors concentrated on nationalistic devel- opments in American History. Maurice Miller and Judy Cate (LEFT) turn in their assignments to Lester Her- man. Rob Bryant, Don Jordan, and Mike Brown (ABOVE) completely shut out the outside world while taking an Economics test. The Ancient History class (RIGHT) likewise appears studious w h i 1 e com- pleting an examination. Charlie Achatz and George Wendel (FAR RIGHT) re- ceive a corrected American History assignment.

BERTHA ACHELPOHL, A. B. , M.S. Home Economics Kertha Ackelpokl Directed Homemaking Most girls tried to include Home Economics in their schedule of courses during their four years in high school. In that way, the girls were better pre- pared when the time came for them to be efficient homemakers. The girls enrolled in Home Ec spent time in the kitchen and at the sewing machines. Some of the various subjects covered included food preservation, meal service, units in clothing, household or con- sumer buying, and management of family incomes. Four new avocado green ranges and one new re- frigerator were installed in the Home Ec Department this year. Two new sewing machines were bought. Rosann Roth (BELOW) carefully cuts out a pattern.
