Junior Red Cross Adopts Korean Girl The Junior Red Cross has adopted a Korean girl, and the group is enjoying the ex- perience very much. The youngster lives in Seoul and keeps in contact with her new family by letter. The Junior Red Cross also distributes baskets of food to help less fortunate people during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Oxford Academy is proud of the work that is done by this fine organization. Audio-Visual Group Keeps the Film Rolling Whenever there is a film to be shown, the faculty and students can depend on the Audio-Visual Club to lend a helping hand. The boys, under the supervision of Mr. Grimes and Mr. Velten, have the responsibility of supplying movie projectors, tape recorders, slide machines, and phonographs to classes that have requested the equip- ment. It is not unusual to see one of the members vigorously tracking down a missing tape recorder. If Oxford Academy had a Future Detectives Club, these participants would certainly qualify.

Garden Club Has Beautified School Grounds The faculty and student body of Oxford Academy have enjoyed the beautiful flowers planted around the building by the Garden Club. Not only in the spring, summer and fall do we see the visible proofs of the many hours put in by these students, but during the Christmas season the Garden Club provides Yuletide wreaths for the Academy’s festivities. The members have the satisfaction of serving the school through their efforts, and at the same time they learn valuable practical les- sons in the field of horticulture. In years to come, the community can look forward to the lovely gardens that these future adult citizens will be planting in their own yards. 29
