By studying ,English We learn a little bit about all types of authors, so that We may choose our reading material intelligently. Be- sides literature we learn about grammar and sentence structure, so we may express ourselves with more clarity and directness. CPictured: Some Tale of Two Cities projects at open house done by the sophomores, and, below, center picture is diagramming by Ira Townsend and Carol Larson in Junior English. Regardless of whether or not one is planning to design houses, drafting can be an asset. In drafting or mechanical drawing, the student learns how to make and read blueprints, and in so doing gains an understanding of how much work goes into the planning of buildings and machines. QPictu'red: Mr. Sparks pointing out a drawing to John Hanley, Perry Johnson, and Harry Thomfoh'rda.J At W.C.H.S. there is a Wide variety of math courses ranging from general math to trig. In many business fields a complete understanding of algebra and geometry is essential. In every- day life one can hardly manage without at least a knowledge of arithmetic and its byproduct of developing accurate and efficient thinking. QPicturecl: Miss Schmiedeskampis solid geome- try class efcamining a geometric figure, Edda Brettl explainingj Those who take woodshop study cabinet mak- ing and carpentry. In addition to studying these subjects, the boys make practical appli- cations of their skill by refinishing furniture and making their own. Taught also by Mr. Ray is plumbing, electricity, sheet metal work, and both arc and acetylene Welding. fPictu'red: Jim M ason is constructing his model of a house.j Physical edcation provides a welcome break in the daily routine of classes. All boys play football in the fall, basketball and volleyball in the winter, and baseball in the spring. Some boys also have tumbling, boxing, wrestling, and track. Both boys and girls go swimming in the winter. Girls' sports include hockey, basket- ball, dancing, volleyball, tennis, archery, and softball. All sports tend to develop co-ordina- tion and good sportsmanship. fPictured: Calisthenics in Mr. O,Hara's sixth hour boys, gym, and mastering the hula in second hour girls' gym are Vicki Hargus, Miss Witherell, and Marlene Memler.J Some who take radio shop go on and study further in television and radio. But even those who don't go on in a specialized field of elec- tronics find satisfaction and profit in knowing something about the functioning of their radio or T.V. set.
