Eugene Locke and Arthur Or- tenburger, who won first and second places respectively in the geometry contest at the Interscholastic meet at O. U. last spring, put to proof their supreme power of concentration. Mathematics has innumerable uses, not only in the professional world but also in military and naval strategy. Norman High School students are thoroughly grounded in trig- onometry, Algebra I. Algebra III, plane geometry, and solid geometry, by two very capable teachers, Mrs. Lulu Fairchild and Miss Florence Gan- stine.

Art and Industry ★ Besides giving students an appreciation of the beautiful things of life, art has opened new vocational fields for talented young people. Students are given their first taste of these fields in advertising, story illustration, and industry through the application of knowledge gained through the advertising needs of school organizations. Industrial art is an impor- tant step in giving vocational training to high school students. Shop work enables the student to think clearly, exactly, and logically. For the last two years, the industrial art department has taken the trophy at Stillwater for winning the most points in contests there. Mr A B Bell Shop I.
