Music SOPHOMORE CHORUS CLASS DIRECTED BY MR. BENEDICT The music department is more or less a morale builder for the entire student body. Here students can pursue the particular field of music they are best suited for. For those interested in instrumental music, we have the orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Sauer, while the boys may try for our band, directed by Mr. Patrick. This, inci- dentally, is the band which adds zip and zest to our football games by its very ap- pearance. Roger I.

With a great demand for mathema- ticians in all branches oi the service, the enroll- ment for these subjects has doubled and trebled. Now more than hali the school enrollment is tak- ing one or more mathematic courses. With the help of the students this department maintains one of the school's most interesting show cases. A student is not eligible for a grade of B or above unless he has completed at least one major or two minor projects each semester. From these projects, which range from elemen- tary graphs to illustrated field projects in trigo- nometry, the best are chosen to be displayed. MJ-X.: Univers ty of Col- oradoy Colurnb Univer sit .

Industrial Arts MACHINE SHOP Under the supervision of Mr. M. F. Kavan- augh, the Industrial Arts department has strived to give its students an active interest in the industrial life, both in production and distribution. Here actual trades are learned. From this department will come out future draftsmen, carpenters, machinists, printers and electri- cians. Along with learning the actual fun- damentals of their respective trade, students will acquire many habits that will help them not only in their Work but in their every day life. They acquire an attitude of pride in accomplished Work: the habit of an orderly method of procedure in the performance of any task, an attitude of readiness to assist others when they need help, and a thought- ful attitude in making things pleasant and safe for others.
