T.V., video tape, help speech department The speech department took on a new look with equipment added to North Side ' s facilities. The video tape machine and television sets gave many students a first-hand un- derstanding of how they look and sound while giving a speech. More students were involved in Speech I and II, than in past years, and the new schedule had not ham- pered the speech classes any. Speech students applied what they had learned by participating in speech and debate tournaments. The team was among the top 10 in Indiana. Classroom activities consisted of preparing and presenting humorous and informative speeches while classmates acted out many re- sponses of the audience. Using the television set, many beginning and advanced speech students can improve on weak areas in their performance. Rose Sizemore presents a speech in Mr. Gary Schultz ' s speech I class to an attentive audience. Dave Aumiller, after much preparation, gives a speech before an audience. Topics are varied and introduce discussion. Speech 21

In beginning journalism, students are taught how to prepare material for the Northerner and how to proofread copy. Journalism examines communication in class The journalism curriculum helps students develop communication skills at many levels. In beginning journalism students learn an appre- ciation of mass media by studying some characteristics, problems, and history. They try to produce materi- al that is used by the media. The Northerner staff meets every day to put the school newspaper together. Gathering news and in- forming ' Skins keeps the entire staff busy. The Legend staff works together to put memories of the year in words and pictures. They accepted many responsibilities that are necessary in producing a yearbook. These members from the Northerner staff get together to discuss layouts and stories for the paper. Pat Markey and Steve Bogenshutz work together typing and reading off names, for the underclass pictures in the yearbook. 20 Journalism

Art helps Redskins express inner feelings Demonstrating the art of lithography are Bruce Henschen, Denise Antone, Mike Krempel, and Carole Masloob. Students who think art classes just drew pictures of animals and still life sketches are taught to think again in art. Before a student enrolls in advanced art he must take a basic art course dealing with fundamen- tals. Miss Marjorie Bell, department head, displayed many of the articles students made on their way to a new interpretation of art. Advanced art classes made objects like belts, jackets, and purses on looms, sketched and designed boxes, and made rings from different metals and stones. Art helps the students express themselves and understand more about themselves through creating different objects said Miss Bell. Each class displayed art drawings and sketches by hanging them in the art hall. Students in beginning art practice on drawing a Holland shoe, a crucible, and an old lantern. Beginning art students study one of the two undone stairways. They transfer what they see to paper. 22 Drama
