Art and Music develop talents The wonderful, magical world of creativity — that is the realm of art and music. Both artist and musician take the lifeless matter of paint, stone, wood, clay, note on a page and create from them a form of life. The magic of creation begins with the fusion of the creator’s imagination and his material. It ends with a painting, a piece of sculpture, or a moving rendition of a Beethoven sonata that leaves the receiver or listener with an interpreta- tion of the world in which he lives. Thus, the study of art and music make a richer and fuller life. TOP: Mrs. Harvey passes her art talents on to her students. CENTER LEFT: Be careful, for Mr. Cramer is watch- ing.

Physical fitness keeps teachers trim Our physical education program is becoming one of the most progressive courses at Fordson. Because we arc blessed with an open-minded faculty, students’ suggestions are taken seriously and changes arc frequently made. Last year bowling was made available for the general classes. This year the twelfth grade girls have their own advanced class involving optional sports and games. The games are voted upon as to which one will be played. Isn’t it great to live in a democracy? ABOVE LEFT: It isn’t too often you find a person who practices what they preach. Miss Valentine, not only teaches tennis well hut also plays the game well. ABOVE CENTER: Miss ToWne takes the time to listen to the views of one of her students on swimming. CENTER: Miss Putnam is a new teacher at Fordson this year. Her ability of knowing fouls, teaching them, spotting them and pointing them out to the students is great.
