Cars Fixedg Weekdays Only, 8.20-2.10 A number of students at OHS seek a vocation in industrial fields. Industrial education helps students to reach this goal and to become productive members of society. Mr. Wingo's woodshop classes give students a chance to create lamps, chests, and even waterbeds. Mr. Jackson instructs those students who find that elec- tricity is what they have a knack for. Mr. Dyer prevents some students from getting stuck along a highway with a broken down car, by his instruction in his auto shop classes. Mr. Wilson leads the future architects through classes in Mechanical drawing. The students who receive this education will use these skills in years to come. We commend the instructors for an excellent job. he f B 1 ,.,...,,Mw Top Left: William Dyer: Mr. Dyer received his BA in Industrial Arts from Chico State in 1955.

They get to work in such places as Oak Valley Hospital, doctor's offices, Con- valescent Hospitals, and even drug stores. It all depends on what fields of medicine you are interested in. Though students don't get paid for their ser- vices, they do receive credits and get a chance to actually work at something they are in- terested in instead of reading about it in some book!

Want to Learn Students who would like to attend a University must enroll in two years of a Loreign language during their four years of igh school. Spanish is the only foreign language taught at OHS. The instructor of panish I, II, and III is Mrs. Glengene ood. Students who take this class not on- Ly learn the language but are also introduc- d to the cultures of Mexico. The annual Cinco de Mayo, meaning 5th of May, Enrovides an excellent example of what is earned. This day is the Mexican ln- dependence Day and is filled with celebra- a ew Language? tion and rejoicing. But if Spanish isn't your thing, then French is also offered, but it must be taken at Riverbank to which bus transportation is provided. French also displays the country's culture. The language reflects the romantic atmosphere of Paris. Students often spend many hours studying in order to master the languages as well as the customs of each country. We commend the departments for their efforts in giving students a taste of foreign countries. AQ' op Left: Glengene Wood: Mrs. Wood is now in her nine- enth teaching year at Oakdale High.
