Dr. Iohn G. Hulton finishes his career at the end of this school term. Many students bene- fited from his fine work as Superintendent of Schools. Some knew him only as a busy import- ant mang many as a friend. Students, teachers, friends and business associates know that his work here in Latrobe is not without acknowl- edgement and appreciation. Before serving as superintendent, Dr. Hulton was a teacher and principal in Latrobe High. In his first year, he instructed students in Laiin, Algebra, civics and also taught science. Two years later, Dr. Hulton received the posi- tion of principal of the high school and served at this post for seven years. Following this, Dr. Hulton was made Super- intendent of Schools and rendered his services in the position for a period of twenty-five years. Along with serving as superintendent, Dr. Hul- ton is a member of the Pennsylvania State Edu- cation Association. He was also elected as president of the Department of Administration. The Education of Dr. Hulton was received in three different colleges. He attended Franklin College for four years, graduating with a Bach- elor of Arts degree, at the University of Pitts- burgh he earned his Masters degree. Conclud- ing his education, Dr. Hulton obtained his Doc- tor of Laws degree at St. Vincent College. Although a very busy man, Dr. Hulton takes time out for his several hobbies. Prominent among these are reading biographies and play- ing golf. Presiding behind the desk in the Administration Building Dr. Hulton was always ready to take time out to lend people a helping hand. His resignation becomes effective on lune 30, l954. Dr. Hulton has no definite plans for the future. His outstanding character which guided him in the past will light the way for his future. -4.0- - BUSY DAYS of Superintendent, Dr. Iohn G. Hulton, DR.

StudentsInVOC TIO AL TRAININ 0 1.44 THANKSGIVING POSTER is given finishing touches by Don Warren and Sandy Dolinar. Students in the Trade and Homemaking Courses of Latrobe High School receive the best possible preparation in their selected field. Boys in the Trade Course are trained to use their hands and machines in creating useful articles. This course is profitable in their ca- reer following graduation. It provides valu- able knowledge for work in the many factories of the district. In the wood shop the boys make such ar- ticles as desks, cedar chests, and tables. The electric shop boys Wire controls for motors, repair appliances, and repair electrical equip- ment for the school. Machine Shop students learn to operate lathes, grinders, and other tools used by a machinist. They also become acquainted with precision tools. Home Economics allows the girls to train and learn about sewing, cooking, and care of the home. The cottage provides the home- like atmosphere for these girls. They have charge of taking care of the cottage, keeping it clean and presentable. Sewing classes make clothes for themselves and exhibit them in a school fashion show. Girls are also given the opportunity to study related arts. In these classes, students make trays, wooden articles, and paint designs on finished products. ELECTRIC SHOP is among Vocational opportunities for boys. Ierry Burke Ed Horansky, Iim Bendel, Dick Rigby and Karl Smith put their knowledge to use MASKS OF COMEDY AND TRAGEDY are compared by future artists, Bonnie DeCaro and Ioe Kubicki. V 3 :L-L..

Do's and don'ts about passive verbs, stories that are either too short or too long and rules of style tend to keep the journalist constantly alert. Students wishing to become full-fledged journalists must first go through the training of Iournalism I. The general fundamentals of of the art of writing are taught and learned in that class. A journalist must learn the five - who, what, when, where, and why - besides knowing how to apply them in leads. During the first year he also learns the art of writing headlines.

The French and Spanish departments were affiliated for the first time this year to form the Modern Language Club with Miss Evelyn Bax- ter as advisor. At the first meeting the members elected Monsieur Dave McCullough to fulfill the duties of president and senor Iack F itzmaurice to act as vice-president in Dave's absence. Mademoi- selle Marylu Swintek was chosen to record the minutes. Flo Lavin. acting in the capacity as treasurer, collected dues and compiled the fin- ancial reports. In the October meeting the club presented a skit entitled, Music of Foreign Lands, with both French and Spanish students giving ren- ditions of songs and pantomimes characteristic of both languages. A quartet sang South of the Border. while Marilee Kahanowitz trans- ferred the group to Paris with C'est Si Bon. The annual French Christmas Caroling excur- sion occurred in December with the group trav- eling to the hospital and surrounding areas. The Spanish Pinata party was held during this month also. As a special project for De- cember, members collected clothing and nec- essities and packed them in boxes for needy children in Korea. Highlighting the club's events was the as- sembly produced by the Spanish students. Enacting the parts of artists, stagehands, and propmen, the Frenchmen also helped to make the production a success. In April the forces of France and Spain met on the hardwood. The Senoritas engaged in a hard-fought basketball game with the Mademoiselles while the sen- ores and monsieurs battle bravely to give the fans many thrills. During the month of May, a committee played host to over a hundred club members at a picnic during which the French and Spanish matched playing skills in a ball game. Meeting on the third Tuesday of each month. the club considered matters dealing with either language. 87 rffxy E is f 4 I i r - y , Q i ! OFFICERS. lack Fitzmaurice, Flo Lavin.

Improved picture taking and pho- tographic principles are stressed at monthly meetings of the Camera Club. With the assist- ance of Miss Mary Louise McBride, this organ- ization presents each year the Eastman Kodak Photograph Exhibit. Another innovation is a Broadcasting I class. These students are trained by Miss McBride in correct usage of the microphone, composi- tion of script, and production of sound effects. Preparing for staff positions next year are Iournalism I enthusiasts, under the supervision of Mr. William Couchenour. Practice is ob- tained in layouts and headline and story writ- ing.
