1938 in f vlertfltifciw uri. ,si ff JL KEEPING school interesting for Junior High students is a real task. Mr. Schuller solved the question for the eighth grade when he exchanged classes for the girls and boys and allowed the boys to cook while the girls learned to pound nails in straight. The angel food cakes turned out by the cooking class after a demon- stration by Mr. Fischer were as good, if not better, than any the girls made. A luncheon prepared entirely by the boys was served one noon at the end of the training period. Dramatics under Miss O'Malley's direc- tion extended beyond the classroom when operettas and plays were produced. Cos- tumes were designed by the Domestic Sci- ence classes and made by the Junior High students themselves. Art classes designed scenery for use with these dramatizations. MUSIC was emphasized especially this year. The orchestra membership grew under Mr. Schuller's direction and made several public appearances at Junior High productions. A monthly newspaper appeared regularly throughout the year with students as editors and reporters. Business training was given through candy sales, publicity and ticket work for the plays, and through earning money for pages in the Minneiska. I 1 4 143 Mr. Schullcr. Principal of Junior High D 1R. SCHULLER brought a new or- ganization into existence this year- the Student Council, formed for student government purposes. The need for train- ing in citizenship was recognized through the Junior Service League which includes all the students. Mr. Ritzman not only developed a Junior High basketball team but also gave the boys swimming lessons, tumbling practice, and various ball games. New uniforms were purchased for the team and school spirit was aroused by trips to tournaments in surrounding towns. I
