' a liECllLLlill UEN The Art Class, under the direction of Miss Barger, has turned out some quite interesting portraits and sketches. The students taking this subject enioy the work very much. The English IV class apparently is listening attentively to one of Miss Propst's records. How do you spell a long low whistle? These basketball girls look more like a chorus line. At the right is Mr. Ludlow, their coach. Skipper Boyle watches carefully to see that Bill McCollough doesn't use the wrong instrument in making an intricate figure for Mechanical Drawing. O-o-o-o-h! screams Sidney, as Hubert turns the cold water on him. Percy looks startled at having his picture taken during such a time. These boys are cooling off after their workout in practicing basketball. Mesdames Hillin, Sullivan, Holderman, three of our five Cafeteria ladies, are preparing the daily lunch for the students. They serve an average of 400 plates a day. Sue Harris, Jean Nix, and friends are enjoying their lunch in the cafeteria. Wanda Hughes looks a little annoyed at the picture about to be snapped. Mr. Sullivan and Mr. Bradley, our school custodians, are caught in action. They were kind enough to pause a moment from the many duties they perform throughout the day, to pose for the photographer. 4 r t X iff' g , ' i
