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.

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.

MR. HALL DEMONSTRATES AN EXPERIMENT Science Many are the students at Springfield High School who are taking advantage of one of the most popular courses offered-namely science. The science courses are open to all stu- dents. For the freshmen there is general science While sophomores may take either botany, biology, or zoology. Although only one year of science is re- quired for graduation, many students be- come so intrigued by its wonders that advanced courses are offered. These ad- vanced courses include physics and chem- istry. Future doctors and nurses are taking bot- any, biology and Zoology, the engineers are taking chemistry and physics, the prerequi- sites ot engineering. Now, with the increased demand for engineers, doctors and nurses by the army these courses have become very important, Yes, it is these science courses which will aid in the transition from the science student of today to the scientist of tomorrow!
