Today, the industrial arts department offers twenty-seven different courses in- volving the study of the materials, tools, processes, iobs, and the human problems of industry. The pupils are given unlimited scope for creative thinking, designing, and the development of original ideas, and many of them plan to follow a career re- lated to their particular field of study.

S's musical organization reciate our talented staff of teachers. OPP They weave music into our hearts and minds bringing a rich experience both to the perform- ers and the listeners. As a result of their untir- ing efforts, there is achieved a sense of unity in a potpourri of personalities. This unity of personalities was extended this year to include l f other departments of the school. The resut o this was the Festival of Arts prog ram presented in March. Dramatics RAMATICS offers, to those students who par- ticipate, an opportunity to develop their creative abilities while developing group spirit, which is so necessary for a good production. A never-to-be-forgotten the moment when he hears those d : Places please! Curtain going moment in a dramatic stu- dent's life is terrifying wor s up. Miss Randall's chief aim is to bring out self- confidence, dramatic appreciation, and more perfect pronunciation in a student.

Health and Physical Fitness Mrs. Marsden gels the measurements. NE division of the Physical Education department is the nurse's ofhce. Here every student gets an annual medical ex- amination. The nurse's oftice also takes care of all first aid in the school and such minor maladies as headaches and stomach aches. Another division of the Physical Educa- tion department are the boys' and girls' gymnasium. The girls' gym is usually buzz- ing with activities. About the middle of the school year, preparation begins in the girls' gym for Greek Games. A popular activity with the girls, it is modeled after the games of the ancient Greeks. The boys play basketball, baseball, and football in the appropriate seasons. The boys are encouraged to try out for the school teams. The healthful aspect of physical edu- cation is very important, for a growing body needs exercise. Aside from the healthful points, it is necessary because it promotes a sense of fair play and team- work among the students. lt acquaints them with the disappointment of losing, the ioy of winning and the acceptance of both with poise and dignity.
