' Turnabouts ' Try Teaching Role for Day American Education Week was a busy week around Manual. November 9 was Turnabout Day — a day during this week set aside each year for students to replace teachers. Each instructor has the opportunity to pick his own Turnabout, and a few teachers select a different student for each class period. During this day, the students teach class- es and fill administrative positions. Top seniors were picked for the principal admin- istrative jobs. This enabled these students to get an inside look into how the school is run and the work that is involved. All persons participating in Turnabout Day were invited to a tea served by the Home Economics Department in their dining room. Invest in Learning was the theme of American Education Week and, consequently, of Open House. Mr. Richard Blough, Manual ' s chairman, invited parents and patrons to visit the school to observe their investments. Wednesday evening, the time of Open House, enabled parents to get acquainted with teachers, courses, aims of courses and what is expected of each pupil. All teachers were in their classrooms as hosts, and ROTC cadets were on duty throughout the grounds and buildings as guides. Larry Jenkins and his mother, Mrs. Violet Jenkins, visit with Miss Joanne Hines, Larry ' s English teacher, at Open House. Marchira Lemme, Vice-principal Noble H. Poole for a day, regis- ters the newly planned Masoma Dance on the school calendar. Mr. Roland Hawkins, Head of the Social Studies Department, dis- cusses the lesson plan with Tom Weschsler. his Turnabout. 10

P-TA, Dads ' Projects Till Bill ' for Extras Parents and teachers of the P-TA and Dads Club combine fun and food for profit throughout the year, and Manual students reap the henefits. Using their time and efforts to help Manual with many projects not covered by official school funds, the two enthusiastic groups play an important role in Manu- al ' s life — from winter to summer vacation. The Manual Dads Club is an indispensable part of the Redskin athletic program. Not only do the teams travel to meets on the trusty P-TA Dads Club bus, but they are feted each season with an Athletic Banquet. The schedule of fall and winter sports and basketball and football programs are made available to all Manualites compliments of Manual Dads Club. The men ushered in the basket- ball season with their annual Dads Club Basketball Clinic, featuring the pre-season varsity scrimmage, with two officials invited to discuss new rules for the year. The P-TA and school clubs join forces each year for the biggest of their projects — the annual Pow- Wow. April 29 saw the gym transformed into a combination carnival and circus, while hungry Red- skins and their friends enjoyed the fare provided in the school cafeteria. The money earned through this and other projects is put to many uses, all for Manual ' s benefit. This year the library boasts a new blond spinet piano, a gift of the P-TA. Many stu- dents attend summer institutes on P-TA grants. President of the P-TA is Mrs. Bruce Richards, and Manual Dads Club president is Mr. Willis Overton. No C-rarions for this military! A juicy hamburger and a 7-Up from the P-TA stand appeal much more to Regina Cox. Mr. Raymond Cain serves orangeade to Redskin fans at the Dads Club Fish Fry, which preceeded the Manual-Howe game last fall. Providing a lift for hungry Redskins, P-TA mothers Mrs. Wayne Shives, Mrs. John Stirling, and Mrs. Don Crafton man one of the three indis- pensable refreshment stands at Dela- van Smith Field.
