554 Q INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT The Industrial Arts Department had its be- ginning in the basement of the Karns City Build- ing during the school year of 1939-1940. Under the able supervision of Mr. George Sligar the shop was completely planned and furnished. After seven years the basement room became too small for the enlarged classes. A new build- ing was erected in 1946 and located to the rear of the present Karns City building. Industrial Arts is a compulsory course for the Junior High School classes. In their words, they received instruction in the handling, care, and use of all the hand woodworking tools. During the latter part of their eighth grade year, they receive instruction on the wood turning lathe. All senior high school students may take In- dustrial Arts courses as electives. Among those courses offered to them are: advanced wood- working, engine lathes, foundry work, mechanical drawing, and some sheet metal and electricity. At the present time Mr. John Williams is in charge of the Industrial Arts Department. I-Ie has been with us for the past three years. I-Ie is a graduate of State Teachers College at Cali- fornia, Pa., and is now doing work on his Masters Degree. ,rf

AFTERTHOUGI-IT Among My Souvenirs The Afterthought Staff, better known as the gold diggers of '49, worked their fingers to the bone trying to achieve the quality of former yearbooks, if not to sur- pass them. Co-Editors Gloria Yough and Mary Ann Todorich threw their whole heart and soul into the job of making the sixth volume of the Afterthought a suc- cess. Business Manager Frances Matijak and Advertising head, Mary Ann Tod- orich, allowed no business establishment to escape their search for new ads to complete the back pages. Literary Editors Phyllis Colbert and Roberta Campbell sharpened their pencils and their wits to compose the numerous writeups. On the Circulation Committee was Edith Smith, Audrey Donaldson, and Audine Eisen- huth, Their duties were to take orders, remind everyone to bring their money, and distribute the books when they arrived. Ken Bauer showed his literary ability by recording the information about sports. Barbara Hays, Josephine Rice, and Bill Woods were kept busy typing and retyping the copy before it went to press. I suppose you are wondering who composed the poems about the Seniors. That talented young poetress was Dixie Jordan. Every time anything of prime impor- tance occurred Audrey Campbell was there with her little black book to write it down. Thus, the calendar grew little by little. Photo Editors Doris Vensel, Mar- garet Rankin, and Marilyn Stroup were kept busy planning and identifying pictures. Thanks to talented Bernard Stevens, little gremlins and other works of art appear from time to time in this book. Yes, it was through the co-operation of many that this sixth volume of the Afterthought is a success. The Senior Class wishes to ex- tend our deepest appreciation to Miss Dorothy Mackey, our able and competent advisor, the alumni page, and the advertisers whose ads appear in the rear of the book. 46
