CLAWSON Pennsylvania State University, B.S. JlniutStrial Arts Department The Industrial Arts Department is designed to give each student some meaningful experience in the areas of woodworking, metal, graphic arts, engineering drawing, and electronics. Last year a special program was incorporated into the engineering field which was designed to give experience in both design and application for those planning to enter this field. Also a greater move toward more technical experience in the woodworking field was put into effect. The results of these new programs were many. Students who didn't feel they wanted to go on in school were given jobs faster. They had practical experience in their chosen technical field which is one of the goals of the Industrial Arts Department. MR. ANTHONY ANTONELLI Central Conn. State College, B.S., M.S.

This dual program is proving successful in that many business-oriented students are going on to college and also in the great deal of success achieved in early job placement of ter- minal students. Among the new things during this year have been the updating of many of the machines used in the department in paving the way for inclusion of some training in data processing. This, along with plans for an all-electric advanced typing room are now under consideration. MR. MICHAEL PERRONE Central Conn. State College, B.S.

ptyairal Etmratinn Two recent innovations in the Physical Education Department have been a special physical fitness re- port card and activity selection for seniors. The free selection of activities has been offered for the past two years with some favorable success on the day seniors only have physical education. The pur- pose is to offer individual and dual activities that have post graduation value such as tennis and archery. However the lack of indoor facilities has handicapped the winter phase of this program. The special report card, which will be sent to the home of each eleventh grader, will indicate the stu- dents’ physical fitness test scores while pointing out his or her strengths or weaknesses. MR.
