The Department this year had a budget of 351,800 which was distributed to the three teachers to purchase supplies for the four Home Arts courses. The girl in Home Arts learned a little about everything, from interior decorating to caring for young children. This last unit was made possible by an arrangement with neighborhood parents who entrusted their children to the care of Home Arts classes. Home Arts 2 students went more deeply into home nursing, interior decorating and color schemes, and learning to read blueprints. The high- light for Home Arts 3 was a United Nations tea at which cookies representing every UN nation were served. WJ 's first winner in the Betty Crocker con- test, Lucy Tolson, was a student in HA 3. The de- partment also offered a course in advanced clothing design for senior girls in which they designed their own patterns and then turned them into such items of apparel as bermudas, suits and dresses.

Junior Draftsmen Create Complex Configurations -. v ,' 9 In an era when the skills of the craftsman are all but forgotten because of automation, the Indust- rial Arts Department becomes a haven for students seeking the pride in workmanship that comes through true craftsmanship. The six instructors pa- tiently demonstrated the techniques that would en- able the boys to attain a usable degree of proficiency in cabinet-making, draftsmanship and printing. Students in the first-year courses in these fields spent their time becoming familiar with the basic tools of each craft and the safety features needed with each. Boys in the Advanced Woodworking classes branched out to explore methods and media which interested them, while boys in architectural drawing, building upon the units on developments, sketching, dimensioning and isometric projections that formed the first and second year courses, dis- covered the new, more sophisticated techniques of the architect. Meanwhile, up in the print shop, the devils in Printing 3 went beyond the basic lessons in type- setting and proof-reading to explore the more re- warding fields of lithography and type selection.
