Besides required fundamentals of English, such electives as English Literature, American Literature, journalism, Word Power, and Advanced Composition II are offered. The Language Department is fortunate in having a mod- ern language lab, under the direction of Mr. Marvin Moody, which is used in studying Spanish, French, German, or Latin. A new class in Greek was started on an experimental basis after school with Miss Vivian Morlock teaching. This year six Harrison seniors spent time in foreign coun- tries learning their language. Don Elliott and Allan Downen went to Germany under an Indiana University language study program.

Pattern for Progress Students taking practical arts courses gained knowledge and vocational experience as they developed such skills as cooking, sewing, mechanical drawing, and print shop work. Among the yeaHs activities in the Home Economics De- partment was a cookie sale during the lunch periods before Christmas vacation. Providing the Home Economics teachers with plenty of headaches and the neighboring classes with a blend of surprising aromas, was a special fifth period foods class for senior boys. Senior Susan Edmondson was the years outstanding homemaker from Harrison to be awarded the Betty CroCker Homemaking Award. The Industrial Arts department, consisting of graphic arts, metal shop, wood shop, electricity, and drawing classes, trains boys to work expertly with their hands.
