100 Artists Develop Talents Of the five classes offered by the Art Department during the evening, a course in Commercial Art and one in Lapidary Arts and Silversmithing (cut- ting, polishing, and mounting of stones) are not provided for San Antonio Col- lege day students. More than 100 Evening Division students are enrolled in the five classes. Like all artists, they wish to convey their ideas and concepts to the public through their creations. To do so, the students display their work in every space that Day students have not already taken. High Style Paris Hats? No indeed. What Jeanette Bayonne is show- ing Floyd Latt is a high-fashion hat she designed in her Commercial Art class. PNbi«t. tfji iin Mr. Owen Davis assists Mary Katherine Boltz in soldering a ring to its facing in the Lapidary Arts and Silversmithing class. David Fierman, engrossed by her technique, patiently awaits his turn for personal in- struction. Oscar McNary takes time from his own sketches to offer constructive criticism on a cartoon drawn by Yolanda Ruiz during a Commercial Art laboratory period. 8 A

Architects Prefer ' Construction ' Study of design, construction, landscaping, drafting, the use of color and other important principles form the basic program of the Archi- tecture Department. Offering the only complete- ly accredited junior college architecture curricu- lum, SAC creates additional classes as the demand arises. This spring three courses not available to the Day Division were on the Evening schedule. General Drafting, Architecture Building Con- struction, and Building Construction Estimating, plus three more subjects constituted the Archi- tecture courses offered to night students. Five instructors handled the combined en- rollment of 249 students. Credits in related sub- jects are available in several engineering, math- ematics, and humanities courses. A twist of the hand and he has a circle. Charles H. Duffin stares at the point of his compass, ready to give it a whirl, as he completes his project for a typical lab assignment in General Drafting. Estimates within a proposed bid bring smiles to Ray Turnbaugh, Richard Johnson, Raymond Clauss, and Instructor Joseph Buley during a laboratory session in Building Construction Estimating. The study of plan interpretation, quantity of materials, and analysis of construction conditions are among the areas listed in the course description. 7 A
