MERRY OLDSMOBILE Although Wilson students do not learn to drive in a merry Oldsmobile, they learn quite well in Wilson's Chevrolet. Every student in eleventh grade takes auto driving as a part of the curriculum. Those students who do not know how to drive are taught by Mr. William Brumbach and Mr. Paul Arner. KNDCK CDN WOGD This year not only boys, but also a few girls enjoyed industrial arts classes in elective per- iods. The industrial arts department, supervised by Mr. Brumbach and Mr. Schwenk, instructs students in various skills such as wood carving, cabinet making, and leather work. Hans Goedeke practices park- ing the dual-control car under the guidance of Mr. Brumbach. Barbara Hartman and Eileen Reinsel patiently await their turns. So this is what makes a car run! Mr. Arner is giving a pre- view to Beverly Phillips, Mari- lyn Hill, Virginia Carr, and Erma Ernst, sophomores, who will be taking the course next year. Mr. Arner, auto driving instructor, and Mr. Donald Schwenk, industrial arts instructor, look on as Mr. Brum- bach, auto driving and industrial arts instructor, demonstrates a vibrating sander. Boys in the 7-3 shop class watch Mr. Schwenk demonstrate a necessary procedure. 15

ARTISTRY Wie agree that social studies, mathematics, and the sciences are important subjects in high school, but to have a well-round- ed personality, one should have reading, music, and art, too. These activities give a student an all-around cultural back- ground.
