Students experimented with sight and sound to express themselves with speech and debate, audio-vis- ual activities, and radio and tele- vision broadcasting. Although debating has always taken a back seat to speech at Northwest, Mrs. Betty Fryer, Eng- Iish teacher, organized the schooI's first debate team. Formed from stu- dents of her speech classes, the team competed with novice and ad- vanced teams from surrounding schools as well as intramurally to gain experience in the new area. Members of the audio-visual club, sponsored by Norman Tripp, industrial arts teacher, Iearnedlthe intricate procedures of operating closed-circuit taping instruments. Other groups benefitted from the cIub's activities, tapes of Pioneer Player rehearsals, football and bas- ketball games, and marching band and Silverettes performances helped the groups realize and cor- rect their errors. Applied radio and television, a two-credit vocational course taught at the Indianapolis Public Schools' Instructional Broadcast Center, pre- pared Charles Van Sant and Kevin Huston, seniors, for future work in broadcasting. They drove to the center each day to work with the studio's cameras, video consoles, and radio equipment for IPS radio station WIAN and video tapes for the use of the public schools. The purpose of the course, said Charles, is to take people who know little or nothing about broad- casting and make them broadcasters. 110 lol Vocational radio and tele- vision students Kevin Huston and Charles Van Sant, sen- iors, examine news bulletins at IPS radio station WIAN. lbj Debating national high school debate topic-l'Re- solved: that the fury system in the United States should be significantly changed -soph- omores John Teskey and Jerry Douglas listen to a Brebeuf debater while Kathy Kirpis, sophomore, keeps track of time. lcl Performing one of the duties of an audio-visual de- partment worker, senior David Skinner distributes equipment to classrooms for use the fol- lowing day.

on ' ' The culture of high school life in- volved many modes of expressions, the most permanent of these ex- pressions are graphic-writing and art. With the cooperation of Mrs. Doris Bradford, Northwest Pas- sages adviser, and Joe Reynolds, art department chairman, this col- lection of original student com- positions and artwork is presented , I 1. 'vt' .M ' ' ' as representing the scope of creati- vity of Northwest students. Progress l remember when my grandfather used to go out and plow for hours and - hours so he could plant his crops. W' s When he came home he would be iiett tired and disgusted because his crops g would never grow. It took him awhile, it but after ten years of babying that g yyor l ff., is soil, he finally started getting some re- 1-: g f f t sults. And then progress came along U A 4, and took his farm away from him. Be- ff' r:.-:. 'tr'r2 cause he never learned how to use the gg tr- f great mass of machinery that replaced ,,, t so his old horse and plow, he was forced ., r to quit doing what he loved to do - most. Now he is a lonely and forgot- ten man with nothing to do but dream g yy ' A an of the farm he had years ago before l f g ' progress took over. 1' f Q A s l . of . .l Pam Alexander, junior ' Q g jf i if x , ,Rs be l 'H ..
