Mr. Gordon Rice JW ART This year's Art Department and Club, both under the direction of Mr. Rite, added new phases and equipment to its program. Students used the new stone polishing machine and slide pro- jector. They silk-screened posters for the Music and Art Festival in the fall. Art facilities were made available to other General Organization clubs, including the Future Teachers of America and the Junior Red Cross. Four ait students received awards of merit after entering the Abraham and Strauss exhibit. Apparently, as an outgrowth of the drive to keep their display case filled at all times, art students completed more three- dimensional work than any other this year. To continue the excellent work of this year and the past, a dynamic new educa- tional art exhibit is being planned for next year. These ex- hibitions enable the student body to keep abreast of all the young artists' accomplishments. Mr. Clifton Urainard I lands speak. 18
