Health alone is victory. Let all men contrive to be healthy. . . Health Education This part of the curriculum is very important, because every stu- dent is required to take gym for four years. This course is taught to the boys by Mr. Depken and Mr. Pevny, and to the girls by Mrs. Sills and Mrs. Austin. When a new ad- dition is put on the building, health will be taught to the freshmen, and first aid to the sophomores. Mrs. Gascoyne also teaches home nurs- ing to the sophomore girls. Knowledge is of two kinds: we know a subject ourselves or we know where we can find infor- mation upon it. . . Library In our library this year there is a wide assortment of books for the students' convenience. Miss Hetrick, our librarian, helps the students in their research. Miss Hetrick gave a general course in the use of the library to some of the freshman classes and a course on special resources and techniques for term papers to the iuniors. 24 LEFT T0 RIGHT: P- Mdffwef 'EhD0bg'e':f The machines of man are to be . , P.

They learn the proper handling and mainte- nance of a car, both of which are necessary for intelligent driving. A successful driver must have good character, obey the rules, and keep a level head. These qualities are stressed in the course. Films further illustrate the need for careful drivers in our multi- automobiled society. Practical ap- preciation of this training is put to a test when pupils are given six hours of driving practice in the dual controller's car, accompanied by either Mr. Bishop or Mr. Masucci. 5. Wisse and S. Van Wieran- l thought we were going to learn to drive! Think on this doctrine - that reasoning beings were created for one another's sake. . . E. Siralci and C. Cheren-using extra resources. Guidance Since everyone needs guidance not only in their grammar school years but also in their high school years, we are glad to know that people like Mr. Kreitman and Miss Walthers are the guidance direc- tors. Their advice about everything from our future college plans to personal problems helps us develop into mature adults, able to handle some of the problems of our life by ourselves and yet know enough to look for good advice when the problem is too big to handle alone.

PRACTICAL ARTS Work of the hands must take rank as the highest of arts - one which more than any other, ministers to humanity. . . In the shop course, taught by Mr. Masucci, the boys who enroll learn to handle machine tools, hand tools, and the equipment foregoing. The valuable field of metallurgy is part at the course, too, since there is such a great demand today for workers trained in this area. Students take this course one period a day as an elective, or two periods a day as a major. P. Matthews and D. Blevins share a problem in mechanical drawing. .. lie Drafting, blueprints and diagramming are all parts of our mechanical drawing course. Since there is considerable demand in this area for girls who have these skills, Mr. Lewis has a number of female stu- dents in his classes. They find the work interesting and challenging. Mr, Lewis advises T. Kazanchy, as V. Arnone waits his turn. -l... K. Haverty and S. Krauss-almost LEFT TO RIGHT: J. Livaccori, G. Boggio, J. Schultz, G. R. Di Girolamo and R.

This is the true nature of the home - Work in the home economics classes falls into the two general areas of sewing and food preparation. The members at the sewing classes made many attractive articles of wearing apparel and modeled them at the April PTA meeting. Our parents were very impressed. As always, the members of the cooking classes enjoyed their work-and its products. Faculty guests enjoyed their special lunches and open house parties. it is a place of accomplishment. . . Again this year we have had a bays' cooking class. The chefs took their work very seriously. They also planned, prepared and served several excellent special meals. Another high point in their year was their appearance, complete in puffed white hats and aprons, as part of the fashion show, when they also displayed astounding musical talent. Mrs. Manners is the instructor tor all these courses.
