20 reatioe Sewing QQ Gourmet Cooking Classes Home Economics rumbled with excitement when two new classes were brought to Lincoln. One was the Creative Sewing class. Here girls learned creative stitchery, knitting, and crocheting. They made scarves, Shawls, belts, leather purses, and wove their own rugs. This class was taught first semester by Mrs. Chapman, and second semester by Mrs. Mitzner. The other new class was Gourmet Foods. This time the boys got in the act, too, when they con- jured up elegant dishes of seafood, casseroles, fon- dues, and desserts. In clothing, girls can start in Clothing 1 by learning the basics of sewing and then progressing at one's own ability. Other clothing classes were Tailoring, where girls made their own coats, and then on to Clothing 6, where students learned the new sewing on knit fabrics. In the Foods Department, taught by Mrs. Nixon and Mrs. Halsey, students learned meal planning, nutrition, and cooked regularly in the kitchens. In Home Management, girls learned the ba- sics of child development, interior decorating, home planning, which prepares them to be homemakers in the future. Robert Ghee checks on the white sauce while Steve Pitzler mixes up the baking powder biscuits. ln Clothing 6, Maureen Perez and Holly Corbett lay out fabric to make knit tops. Mrs. VanRooyen demonstrates how to prepare and serve tongue in Gourmet Foods.
