Art Students Explore And Learn Skills Although students in this year’s art classes had different purposes, the classes provided them with a chance to work toward individual goals. To some, art was a new ex- perience to be explored through such activities as pottery, weaving, painting, and drawing. To others, art was a class where ideas and feelings could be ex- pressed or understanding could be developed. Whether students ac- quired skills for a leisure time activity or in preparation for a ca- reer, the projects and activities all centered around the student's par- ticular needs and interests. Stu- dents also spent time working on things like silk-screening and In- dia-ink printing. Students were of- ten free to express and explore as they liked. This helped them to answer their own questions on art. MR. WILLIAM ZEIGLER: B.A., M.A., Art Department Chairman, Art Club. TOP: Art student Alice Millis gets used to the feel of clay.

MRS. JANET MANNING: B.S., Physical Education, Reserve Cheerleader Sponsor, G.A.A., Girls’ Tennis Coach. MR. CECIL TAGUE: B.S., M.A.,. Physical Education, Social Studies, Drivers’ Education, Varsity Basketball Coach. MR. WILBUR VEACH: B.S., M.A., Physical Education, Business, Cross Country and Track Coach. Team teaching was used in the physical education department this year as the girls’ and boys’ classes were combined to play team games and individual sports. Mrs. Janet Manning was the new girls’ P.E. teacher and while the boys learned wrestling, the girls worked on gym- nastics. The students seemed to enjoy the idea of the combined classes. Dodgeball, volleyball, basket- ball, touch football, soccer, tennis, archery, and golf were all played with emphasis being placed on the lifetime sports such as tennis, golf, and archery. Physical fitness tests were taken in the fall and spring and these showed teachers how the students had improved. Classes didn’t meet every day as in the past, due to an added year of P.E. in Junior High. Advanced pro- grams were also something new and they were offered to interested juniors and seniors.

New Additions Aid Energetic Science Students The Science department had a few new additions this year. The first was the new Chemistry in- structor, Mr. C. L. Renner. Others included a new resource center, video tapes that helped prepare Integrated Science students for their labs and also a program which gave some Biology classes the choice of what they wanted to study and when they wanted to take a test. This year, more than ever before, the metric system was employed. The Science courses offered at C.H.S. were vital to the future of many students in college. High school science presented a back- ground which later could be used in such careers as medicine and other fields involving science. RIGHT: Mr. Furbee gives aid to student Cindy Porter.
