Visual aids were very important in instruction of proper selection and preparation of food. Right: Miss JoAnn Kverno and Miss Barbara Brant, teacher assistants, demonstrated the fine art of cooking with the aid of a demonstration table and mirror.

A ccelerated Reading is a course designed to develop reading and study skills. Mrs. Oatman and Mrs. Moe taught the nine-week course which was a valuable opportunity for all students. A new semester-long class called a Pilot Study in Reading was originated this spring to provide a deeper, more complete knowledge of these essential skills. Coats, suits, and dresses made in the Clothing classes were modeled at our first May Fashion Show. Several Foods classes entered the annual J. J. Jessops and Son Table Setting Contest, again proving the creativity of Hoover’s girls. 25
