The Annex in itself is the home base for many activities in the high school besides classes. This added building houses the Swing Choir, the La Porte High School Radio Players, and the Dance Band. The Swing Choir is a selected group of singers who travel to various cities in several states and give choral performances. This group was initiated in the high school in 1954 by David Simpson. A group of musicians selected from the concert band form the Dance Band. This dance band gives an annual concert and plays for many high school dances. The group was started by Gene Pennington, a long-time director of the organization. The La Porte High School Radio Players is an organization made up of students from the radio speech classes. Various plays are enacted by the participants and are broadcast over WLOI under the direction of Miss Vera Kellogg. All of these organizations are assets to the high school. Mr. Prokl shows a student how to operate a piece of machinery, while others labor over their projects. Page seventeen

This addition to the school contains 3 regular classrooms, a woodshop, a metal shop, a print shop, a drawing room, a small auditorium where the band and orchestra meet, a choir room, and a laundry room. The Annex is connected to the main building by a short, well-lighted breeze- way.

In 1954, the high school officials recognized the inadequacy of the old gymnasium. This gym was an outdated building with thin wooden parti- tions and antiquated plumbing. The new gym is a two-floor unit. The first floor contains exercise rooms, dressing rooms, and the Boys' and Girls' Physical Education Department Offices. The second floor houses the large new gym. The gymnasium proper has a huge folding partition, to divide the floor for separate classes, and roll-away bleachers. This unit is the very latest and most praise- worthy addition to the high school system of La Porte. We are sure many more admirable additions will be made in the future. This large, new gymnasium unit is indeed a relief from the old, outmoded building. Page eighteen
