l it INDUSTRIAL ARTS l l Industrial Arts In the school year of 1938-1939 the Industrial Arts Department of Oakfield High School set its course over the seas of knowledge in the good ships, General Shopwork Cadapted for high schoolj and General Metalwork Cfor advanced high school students.D Guided by recommendations of the State Department of Education and headed by their own student leaders acting as shop ofiicers, the crews of these two ships carried out programs of work which included mechanical drawing, public speaking, studies of information related to industry, as well as practice in manipulative skills and use of shop machinery. Veering from the routed course was permitted in order to allow participa- tion in the intra-mural basketball league, in which league the shop team per- formed creditably-and for a trip to the Metal Trade School in Batavia for the purpose of gaining a better understanding of how Vocational Education differs from Industrial Arts Education. Although the ships failed to find the port of Perfection they did reach many of their objectives during the search. In addition a basis was provided forflbuilding a more diversified program in the future for those who will follow in this study of how Industry may be better understood and utilized in better ways to serve our needs in present day civilization. 28
