HRT HHU HIUSIU Mr Summy Miss Tinjum The continued interest in this department shows that although they go all-out for the war effort, the students need some cultural, relaxing subjects. On the capable shoulders of Miss Tinjum falls the responsibility of the entire art department. Aside from her own classes, she is called on to direct and help with posters and decorations for the school dances. Many eyes were wet and throats aching when popular Mr. Summy. head of the music department, left the school for the Army Air Corps. Mrs. Johnson, new commercial teacher, stepped in and saved the music department from being dissolved. Through letters the students are eagerly following, !Vlr. Summy's pro- gress, and they know he is glad someone is carrying on the Band and Choir he worked with so diligently. .i i K Wim UMYY an

The students not only learn why, but who, and where, and how. Emphasis is also placed on post war aims. Freshmen citizenship classes are taught by Mr. Fylling and Mr. Hollidge. World History is taught by Mr. Fylling, Mr. Campbell. United States History courses were taken over by Mrs. Emery when Mr. Bloom left for the Navy. It was with deep pride that the students welcomed their popular coach and teacher when he paid a short visit as Lt.fJ. GJ Arthur C. Bloom.

The clothing classes, under the direction of Miss Wallace, besides the ac- tual making of garments, learn about styles, most becoming colors, and co- lor combinations, and still find time to sew for the Red Cross, In Mrs. Rice's cooking classes the girls learn, in addition to the actual preparation of food, about balanced diets, special diets for children, and invalids, budgeting and table etiquette. The problems of the Homemaking Classes center around the family: the home, its selection, style and color scheme, furnishings, budgeting, buying child care, and home nursing. The regular Red Cross course in Advanced First Aid was given all senior girls by Mrs. Ralph Hefner during the spring semester as part of their home making requirement.
