Academics ART: BANDg GLEE Talents Develop Despite a lack of school participation and interest, some good singers con- tinued with Glee Club. Under the di- rection of Mr. Cooley and Mrs. Cooley on the piano, Glee became a class this year. Approximately 75 freshmen with a sprinkling of upperclassmen enrolled in mixed chorus. They participated in the Christmas program and the Spring Sing. The band consisted of 25 skilled and hard working students who put in much practice to make the band a stronger sounding unit. The band be- came a truly important part of Marist spirit this year. Mr. Dunne contributed to the spirit by teaching music that fit the cheers. This year the band mem- bers were seen as well as heard when they entertained at games, the Christ- mas program and the Spring Sing. Mr. Dale Cooley, art teacher, develop- ed an interest in art in the students by making them express themselves through their own art ability and imag- ination. Students not only learned how to paint but became skilled working with clay and other materials. Exper- imentation and the belief that every- one has the potential to become an artist were the main themes of the class this year. ! 'Qs A L-A -al - ---'?s.u- Ef gf f'-if---af I ' ..

PRACTICAL ARTS Teens Practice Future Pursuing activities from hemming skirts to creating a ban- quet kept members of Home Ec busy all year. Under the instruction of Mrs. Loretta Horrell, the girls hostessed teas for their mothers and an all-occasion party for toddlers. Delicious smells through the air vents advertised the prod- ucts to many of the student body. Woodworking or shop is a new course at Marist. Headed by Mr. Moore, the boys, mostly juniors and seniors, learned the techniques of designing and constructing. Besides hand- ling tools and various woods, the boys learned to order their materials and most important were trained in the responsibility of following through on a job. When not teaching woodworking, Mr. Moore instructed classes of mechanical and architectural drawing. The stu- dents learned the skills of blueprint reading and dimensional drawing. Mr. Moore guided his students with the skill and craftsmanship that only the experience of the trade can teach. Joe Strub saws away at his project. A. r, r . v t , A I MR l as I
