Pupils become aware of her warm person- ality as she begins counseling them at the elementary centers and continues to help through the high school years. She gives advice and assistance in helping a student find the vocation just right for him and opens new doors for a college education or a better job. GORDON E. OXLEY, B.S. Principal Mr. Oxley is our principal, teacher, and student council advisor. As a principal it is his responsibility to promote a greater under- standing between the students and faculty. In times of excitement or stress he remains calm and patient; no matter how small the problem he always has time to listen and to help. He has at heart the welfare of each student and teacher in our school. 20 DORIS CARY, M. A. Guidance Counselor

Fruity INDUSTRIAL ARTS A power mechanics lab was begun in in- dustrial arts this year. The lab will help further the boys’ education in the-use of power tools. Also added to the department this year were ten new benches. VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE Classes in agriculture proved themselves very active this year. They visited the of- ficer’s training and soil judging in Westfall; State Convention and State Livestock Judg- ing Contest in Columbus and two parliamen- tary procedure contests. Along with these field trips the vo-ag boys managed to add a new grinder to the departments list of farm equipment. Beginning art students try their hand at paper mache. The char- acter developed into a beautiful angel dec- oration for the Christ- mas Prom. ART Art offered many experimentative ways for creativity this year. Water color, char- coal drawings, and paper mache productions were a few of the projects art students under- went. The students also volunteered their talent to working on decorations for the Y-Teen Christmas Prom. All of the Hap- piness Is signs and imaginatively decorated bulletin boards seen around school this year were done by the art classes. k GLENN JACOBSON Industrial Arts JOHN COOKE, B. A.
