T rp77 Miss Cresto ' s Spanish II class examines a lew ot the many records dealing with music and language instruction that are used in the teaching of Spanish. In this class, as in other language classes taught in our high school, students learn to appreciate the culture of the people whose language they are studying. Those shown in this picture are Bill McDonald, Launa Jeffrey, Cheryl Crispino, and Judv McMichael. The fields of electronics, space exploration, and engineering are opening wide opportunities to all of us. It is important now, more than ever before, that we consider mathematics as .1 career. Our fine Mathematics Department is changing with the times. Mathe- matics is an ever advancing field. As new theories, formulas, and equations come in, they are presented to us. Our textbooks are revised systematically so that we are up with the times. We appre- ciate the advantage of up-to-date information. f AJ» In the Foods class girls are taught how to prepare many appetiz- ing meals that have both eye and taste appeal. They learn to pre- pare many types of food and are instructed in the art of thrift. Here we see one of their other many feats, that of table arrangement, from left to right are Linda Granados, Elvira Diaz, Bob Leek, who is lucky enough to be the girls ' guest tor the day, and Pat Rupp. Mrs. Gayne ' s Clothing I and II classes worked busily this year to produce articles of fine quality. Here Susy Willis, who worked hard and carefully in the making of this dress and hat, is proudly showing them to her friends. This year the girls began by making a suit from a professional pattern. Next they went to the larger task of designing and creating their own garment. This job took three months, one month to design and two to make.

These Women Serve Us Many have contributed to a successful year here at Fullerton Union High School. The clerks in the bookstore have carried stock for the everyday needs of the students, and taken care of the school text- books. The cafeteria workers have prepared many hot, tasty lunches for the students. Our secretaries have been on the job everyday, playing an important part in the function of this campus. Our thanks go to all these ladies for their patience and hard work. o fl ft ? ft n Aft Ik ■ First row, left to right: Frances Worley, Bertha Gillman, Gladys Loomis, Mary Gibson, Hazel Harris, Flora Condiff, manager.

Since our school was established in 1893, our library has supplied much educational and enjoy- able reading material. The class of 189 3 consisted of eight pupils and one teacher. The library con- tained only thirty-two books, a fraction of today ' s twenty thousand volumes. Our beautiful library, which was built in 192 3, was originally a copy of the famous library of the University of Salmanca in Madrid, but because of the 1934 earthquake a few changes havebeen made. Damaged slightly, the library was partially rebuilt. In the 1930 ' s the Junior College used the libra- ry along with the students here. When their own library was built, some of their college level books remained here. Thus, our library has the advan- tage of an extensive variety of material. Our libra- ry is so outstanding that it is rated one of the best in Orange County, and perhaps the entire state.
