ff 1 c . E P RTM E N T5 ,,. FINE ARTS is a department that plays a prominent part in making the history of Montebello High. ln this department we find music and art, two principal subjects in which stu- dents find enjoyment and pleasure as well as practical knowledge. ln the art classes students with artistic ability find an opportunity to express themselves in a variety of ways. Beginners in art are taught the principles of good craftsmanship, the value and blending of colors, and the designing of posters. Meanwhile, the advanced classes de- vote their attention to the 'AGolden Key, the three jungle murals in the cafeteria, and to various leather projects and pyrography- -the burning of designs in wood The advanced students also enjoy making school posters which are exhibited in the local Montebello stores, preceding the performance which the posters advertise. In the music department we have to our credit three orchestras, the advanced orchestra, which appears at many high school assemblies and school plays, the be- ginners' orchestra, and the newest additions to the musical organization, a jazz or- chestra, which plays at some of the high school dances. This year a band was organized. It takes a prominent part in all rallies and some- times plays at special programs. Many freshmen appear in this group. In the vocal group there are the boys' junior and senior glee clubs and the girls junior and senior glee clubs, their greatest achievement of the year being the oper- etta, ln Old Vienna, presented at the matinee and two evening performances. The girls freshman chorus also takes part in the school activities. MANUAL ARTS is the department in which the boys take pride. Wood shop is a subject every boy in school is interested in, and, as a result, these classes are always filled to capacity. The freshman boys are kept busy making small articles, such as toys, footstools, end tables, and other simple furniture. Each year the results from this department prove more interesting than before. In this year's exhibit was furniture of a decidedly modern style. The advanced classes find themselves quite handy in the repairing of cars, and also making boats and sleds. Machine shop plays an important part in the high school curriculum. The ob- jective of the course is a very practical one as it enables the boys to find themselves and their place in life. Again, practice rather than theory, is the keynote. Repairing and painting cars, designing machinery, and constructing engineers' transits are some of the assign- ments worked out in machine shop. Different from machine and shop work, but equally important is mechanical draw- ing, in which the boys draw blue prints of homes, buildings, and machines. Accuracy and neatness are two prime requisites in this course of study. Lettering also has a definite place here. Page Fifteen
