Miss Ann L. Taylor, Art Super- visor of the Reading School District, Mr. Ralph A. Dornsife, and Miss Kathleen L. Reilly evaluate a vari- ety of text books in order to deter- mine which books can be used most effectively in the art and craft pro- grains. Members of Mr. Ralph Dornsife's art classes often succeeded in earning top awards or special recognition for their outstanding art work. Art Department Art-Mr. Ralph A. Dornsife Crafts-Miss Kathleen L. Reilly Fine arts, commercial, and gen- eral art courses enabled students to acquire valuable training and skills in the fields of painting, sketching, industrial designing, il- lustrating, advertising art, and clay modeling. Students who selected the crafts program were given numerous op- portunities to plan and to make a variety of creative and practical projects such as metal ware, plas- ter statuettes, leather goods, and ceramic pieces. A field trip to the Philadelphia Museum of Art highlighted the de- partment's major outside activi- ties. ,V xi '-'21?9 '. Mg, ,ht Making colorful holiday decora- tions proved to be one of the popular student projects in Miss Kathleen L. ReiIly's craft classes.
