Tooth Brushes and Paint Enliven Arts Lights, action, and the play begins. Our dramatics teacher Mrs. Coffindaffer gives her classes the ever-necessary training and experience needed to produce plays. The dramatics department presents short plays for Christmas and Easter assemblies. Mem- bers of this department also present one-act plays for paid assemblies and district and state competition between high schools. Mrs. C also directs the senior class play in the fall and the junior class play in the spring. Spring 1967 saw the production of South Pacific. Fun and frolic for juniors and sen- iors in the cast and those working back stage resulted in a successful money-making effort for the junior class. Mrs. Harris leads art students in studies of various art forms, the history of art, and different art materials. These varied ap- proaches to art provide a basis for the crea- tive expression of students with all types of personalities. The art classes have a display on A-hall at all times. Janie Hoer and Jo Alice Ruble exhibit a spirit of creativity while making facial masks for Art I class.

Cakes, pies, and cookies sent only pleasant odors into the halls. Besides baking, home economics students sewed, studied interior decorating, and dis- cussed child care. During a study of house plans girls drew up samples of their own and outlined technical details of these. Industrial arts students daily entered their own World in the room on B-hall from which emerged the sounds of machines, machines, machines. Saws, drills, and other instru- ments took on a special significance when these boys learned their most intricate parts. Students studied the various grains of wood and learned how to finish each type. These two departments gave students the opportunity to practice what they learned and to develop individual skills. . .... is .xg-af: -V-we ':. PE-f.
