Art In art we have learned to express ourselves in pic- tures through color, form, space, texture, and lines. Art has helped us to develop an esthetic sense so that we can appreciate art. A few of us have found a secret talent in this field and are making it our career. Elinor Dobson just knows that this poster will win first prize. Another Mona Lisa in the making, eh, Jackie. Music Do, re, mi. fa. so. la, ti. do. Practicing our scales is only a prelude to the magnificent pieces we present in concert. In band we also learn to march, adding to the enjoyment of parades and football games. More im- portant, we have learned the value of work and co- operation with others. Mr. Connor briefs the chorus before an assembly. Daily practice has helped to make our band one of Florida’s finest. Practice makes perfect; we are going to have a perfect majorette corps.

Library Not only is our library a valuable aid in the academic phase of our school life, but also is a place to relax dur- ing our leisure time and to read books and magazines. Many hours are spent by the librarians and their staff in making our school program more interesting and eventful. This year we were privileged to participate in the traveling library program of the National Science Foun- dation in which we receive fifty outstanding books every two months. Louise Snipes wonders if she will ever finish checking books. It's always a busy day in the library when an English class is there. Homemaking We girls have learned more than how to follow a recipe or hem a dress in this course. In addition to learning the secret of selecting foods that are not only pleasing but also nutritious and economical, we have also learned how to make and buy our own clothes. Homemaking gives us a foundation on which we can better build our future homes. What wonderful treat is in store for some lucky home ec class. “Gee, I hope I get this dress done in time for the dance,” says Mary Sue Spikard to Shirley Walker. Some of the finer points of cooking are explained to a class.

DCT students sell Blue Devil jewelry and pennants before school. D.C.T. Diversified Cooperative Training, under the direction of Mr. Traviss and Mr. Padgett, provides us with an opportunity to have jobs while continuing our educa- tion. We attend classes for four periods, then leave for our jobs at one o’clock. We work at many different places around the city and have the experience of meet- ing the public, so valuable in our future jobs. Agriculture The boys who are interested in an agricultural voca- tion have learned many helpful ideas and methods in this course. Agriculture has also given them social and organizational experience. These calves are among the many livestock projects in agriculture. Drivers education students return from a driving lesson. Driver s Training Slow down! How many times have wre heard this while learning to drive in Driver’s Training? Just about a hundred times, that’s all! But we finally got those lic- enses and what a test! Now we drive like old pros, but we still remember all those safety rules we learned in Driver’s Training. The Drivers Education students arc introduced to the basic make-up of a car, as well as excellent driving tech- niques.
