Without this center ofall activity and the staff which makes it run smoothly, the school would be chaos. At the center ofthis hub is the director of all school inter- ests. the principal. Mr. Fain. His duties include the supervision ofinstruction as well as the handling ofall business and Hnancial affairs. His excellent mind and level business head insure Sylvan success in any field of endeavor. When the problem of discipline arises. Mr. Fain is always willing to lend a guiding hand to those who fall by the wayside. His friendly manner and genial disposition enable him to handle thejob of chief of public relations and school diplomacy in a very ca- pable manner. The P. T. A. and all other community organizations find him ready to help in any situation. Mr. Fain's unceasing efforts to do hisjob diligently are a boon to the welfare ofthe entire student body and faculty. Aiding Mr. Fain in carrying out hisjobs are the capa- ble office workers, the secretaries. Mrs. King and Mrs. Maddox are always anxious to help students and teach- ers alike.

Q tl'- Mns. QUKENTIA Pootf 3 Mas. MARY SHEPHARD Chairman Students learn art ofusing tinfoil. Art Department Devellopes Stttdle1nt's Talents The world of color and beauty is opened to the ambitious student through the means of the Sylvan art staff. They are taught the art of working with oils, water colors, and charcoal to accomplish amazing feats. There are various projects offered to appeal to all art students. There are many fields in painting in which they engage, such as landscape, live model, and straight imaginative painting. There is still another field of art in which Sylvan students indulge. This is called abstract art In this phase of art, the student usually is allowed to project his own personality into his work. You see examples of their work up and down the halls ofthe school. It's dis- played on bulletin boards, posters, and at many school functions that are in need of art creations. There is also one big showing of the art classes work at a P. T. A. meeting. The art is exhibited for the parents and the students. These amateur artists, which are now filling the classrooms with their work, may someday fill art galleries with their compositions. Q - Students listen as teacher tells of mosaic art. Students find an is fun,
