Physical Education In the girls’ gym classes this year the following games were taught and played: field hockey, basketball, American folk dancing, ballroom dancing and softball. Field hockey was introduced to the girls as a new sport and most of the season was spent on instruction. Touch football was the first game played by the boys' gym classes. Basketball came next, with folk dancing after it. Track and softball completed the actual gym course. For the first time the boys’ and girls' gym classes were combined for folk and ballroom dancing. The experiment was very successful, but it will be used only once every two years. Under the direction of Miss Pauline Beck, Mr. George Hibbard. Miss Jean Hill, Mrs. Louise Tuttle. Mr. Eric Waldorf, and Miss Wilma White. First Aid classes have been held this term in place of the regular health classes. Commercial Subjects The commercial subjects are very important for all who wish to enter business. Those students taking the courses usually have a definite ambition for which they are striving, such as becoming the private secretary of a large firm. There is a wide range of commercial subjects and all are very popular. Com- mercial law, from which the fundamental principles of law are learned, is one of the most popular subjects. Typing is one of the subjects that can be of value for personal use as well as for business. Shorthand and bookkeeping are also business subjects that are essential for certain types of office work. Mimeographing is taught to those who desire to learn its use. The teachers of commercial subjects are Miss Maxine Babcock, Miss Betty Burgard, Mr. Alan Button, Mrs. Audrey Coons. Miss Lee Cunningham, Mr. R. L. Edwards, Mrs. Louise Grondahl, Miss Margaret Purvine. and Mr. John Rockwell. 14

Music The music department of Jefferson offers its students one of the most complete courses attainable in the city. The regular boys' and girls' glee classes as well as the mixed choral groups are sources of excellent voice training and tone quality. The theory class, truly a necessary part of any musical education, provides the background and technical instructions necessary for a complete and thorough understanding and appreciation of any type or kind of music. Under the able direction of Mr. Hollensted, the A Cappella Choir, the Treble Clef, and the Gleemen have brought honor and distinction to Jefferson. On the evening of February 22 the Choir had the pleasure of singing for the naturalization services at the Civic Auditorium. During the spring term, Mr. C. Ashley Cook took over the duties as conductor of the band and orchestra. He filled the vacancy left by Mr. Wright. Household Arts Clothing, home administration, foods, nutrition, home nursing, and child care are popular courses at Jefferson. In these specialized classes the students learn how to care for the child, the sick and the home. The home administration classes deal largely with family and social relationships. Mrs. Irma Shrock, Mrs. Helen Siver, and Mrs. Lucile Higgins are the home administration teachers, and Mrs. Higgins teaches all the foods classes. The boys are offered a one term course which includes short units on all phases of home-making, with special emphasis on foods. Mrs. Irma Shrock, Mrs. Doris Catlin, and Miss Edna Waples are the staff of clothing teachers at Jefferson. In the manual training classes as one of the main projects Mr. Leon LaForge is teaching the boys to build model airplanes for the army. For each of ten different types of planes ten must be built. Mr. LaForge is also the instructor for the book- binding classes which the students find very interesting.
