HOME ECONOMICS Girls receive instruction in fine points of cooking and sewing. Patricia Smith and Ruth Diaz prepare cookies in first year home economics. Snip, snip, snip goes the sound of scissors as the busy girls learned about straight of the grain, nap of the material, and many other things they need to know to complete attractive articles of clothing. With the fashion show in mind they started their second project of the year. It was different and more difficult than the first; this way the girls practiced advanced sewing. Soft ball, hard ball, soft crack, hard crack are just a few of the tests the girls used in candy making. Later they used the candy thermometer, whichwas a big help. They learned how to prepare a meal with color, using the fundamental nutrients. Preparing a Thanksgiving meal taught the girls how to co-ordinate so everything is ready to eat at the same time. RIGHT: Yolanda Herrera is all ready to put her cookies in the oven. Miss Joy Rogers teaches the home economics classes I and II and sponsors the junior class. She received her B. S. H.

In the picture above, Mr. Muckleroy's English class listens to Wallace Ashley give a report. Besides a general knowledge of fundamentals of grammar, writing and speaking were stressed in M. H. S. English classes. Skill in these courses was developed through the use of tape recordings, story writing, reports, and drills. To provide appreciation of the best in literature, book reports were required. Several of the English teachers made up their own lists of required books, and the students chose reading from these lists. Writings of such famous authors as John Gunther, Irving Stone, and Thomas Wolfe were read. 25
