Music and Art Develop Rounding out a students curriculum schedule are the music department, headed by Mr. Willard Budnick, Mr. Walter Cherwicn, and Mr. Bvron Snow , and the art department, headed by Mr. Cue) Dostal. 'these two departments develop individual talents, increase appreciation and knowledge of music and art. and provide pleasure for others. Sometimes the departments combine forces. At Christmas before the choral concert, the art department held a display of their work. Also they designed the program covers for the concert. At another time the band allied on the chorus to sing a couple of numbers at their concert while the chorus needed instrumentalists to accompany various songs at their concert. Still each department does a great deal on its own. At the beginning of the school year the chorus and band start out by electing their separate officers and council members. These two councils then start thinking of money raising projects, trips, and jjoint systems. 'then all of a sudden, the Wavzafa High School Band is marching under the direction of Mr. Willard Budnick on our football field during the halves of our games.

The commercial department prepares students to go directly from high school to a permanent clerical position. Iliis year, as in the jxist. the Department proved to be one of the handiest in the school. A teacher who needed some typing done, a stencil cut. or a master sheet prepared for the ditto duplicator came directly to the office practice room. Mrs. Marjorie Peterson was in charge of the office practice classes this year. Office practice is offered to seniors and is designed to familiarize the students with office couipmcnt other than the typewriter. Mrs. Peterson assisted Miss Fern Peterson and Mrs. 1 lecklin by teaching typing and bookkeeping also. Mrs. Bernice I lecklin taught bookkeeping, shorthand 1 and II again this year. Students in first year shorthand are h'nv learning the symbols and brief forms of the Gregg Shorthand System. As the year progressed first year shorthand students began to take dictation at a slow rate and gradually increased in speed. Bv the end of the year they were prepared for Shorthand II. Hie students in Shorthand II arc busy taking dictation for the first part of the hour and then transcribe their notes into business letter form during the last half of the hour. Miss Fern Peterson taught typing again this year to the senior high students who selected this elective subject. Commercial students arc taught that a high tvping speed and considerable accuracy are essentials for success in a clerical position.

Senior Choir Girls’ Glee Club, Male Chorus, Ma drigal. Ninth Grade Choir. Junior High Choir, and various ensembles make up the choral department. These groups all perform under the direction of Mr. Walter Chcrwicn. Throughout the year these groups perform in concerts, contests, and operettas. 'Ilien towards the end of the year, both instrumental and choral group prepare for regional and state contest and finally for their trips. Also working constantly is the art department. Iliis department under Mr. Gucl Postal has had many projects. Around Christmas they did a beautiful job decorating the school. They painted a mosaic on the main window and two scenes on the windows at the ends of the hall. These three looked like stained glass windows. But probably their biggest project this year is the mosaic on the main bulletin board. Iliis mosaic pictures a Trojan in the center with various activities around it. It will certainly be a wonderful addition to our school. Both of these departments help give our school a rounded out curriculum.
