LORAINE AYERS BRENDAN CROSBY Mrs Christine Casey, Mrs. Grace Macaulay, Mrs. Marion Escoffier. Media Center Offers New Learning Experiences This proved to be a year of change for the Media Center, which was formerly referred to as the Li- brary. The new two-floor Media Center is located in the center of the new addition at SPFHS and is completely removed from its former facilities. lt was equipped with comfortable chairs, new equipment for students' use, and enclosed desks which contributed to a more relaxed atmosphere for better studying. On the second floor of the Media Center, along with much reference material, are the new academic department rooms and their respective independent study areas. To increase scholastic efficiency, each department was placed adiacent to its related refer- ence materials. Cross-media kits, the copy machine and other visual and oral media, available for the students use, enabled students to find learning a more interesting experience.

'H' The hope of this year's Art Department was to encourage students to creatively express them- selves while they attained a greater appreciation for the arts. Students who wished a basic introduction selected Arts and Crafts, while those wishing to explore the subject in depth continued with weaving, ceramics, sculpture or life drawing. A new course offered this year, Philosophy's Art, evaluated the significance of past artists and their relevancy to the art world today. The department would like to expand and add to the specialization courses offered for the next year's curriculum. ' PAUL ROBESON l just painted both hands. Gwen Harper. VIRGINIA PASTERNAK

gem. Brian James, a member of the J.V.A.V. FRANK MALESKI C.I.T. Tunes in on T.V. This year the Audio-Visual Department began its year with a new name, Center for Instructional Tech- nology. Directed by Mr. Frank Maleski and Mrs. Mary Lou Thayer, C.I.T. was responsible for the main- tenance, operation and distribution of all communi- cational equipment at SPFHS. Much increased facilities enabled the department to explore areas of communicational technology in greater depth. C.l.T. continued its services in graphic arts, photographic material, video taping and elec- tronic equipment. Video taping has presented tre- mendous opportunities to SPFHS. It was possible this year to tape assemblies, class plays, pertinent speeches and ta make special T.V. shows to edu- cate the student body. Such a field is wide open for expansion and through this media, C.I.T. takes an even more vital part in the educational process. These twenties look a little smeared. Jeff Taylor, Brian Newman.
