Art Museum visited by classes;
study twentieth century history
by Cecile O’Rourke
To learn more about the pe
riod of German history around
the first part of the twentieth
century was the purpose of the
German class and art class field
trip to Portland Art Museum.
During this era a new
type of art was formed
called expressionist art. In
the Morton D. May collec
tion shown at the museum
the artists used this form of
art, expressing their inner
feelings on canvas.
“Many contemporary works
were displayed showing the
trend toward expressionism in
Germany and the individual
styles of various German art
ists,” commented Sterling Ben
nett, senior German student
about the collection.
Senior Inese Brunins said,
“The exhibit was one of the
most unique, interesting and al
most macabre I have seen in a
long time.”
“The paintings were a
bold, hard expression of the
German society during the
late 1800’s and the early
1900’s,” commented sopho
more Debby Bihn. “They
expressed the true feeling of
fright and pity for their
country.”
“The paintings expressed the
feeling of the German people
when under Nazi reign. The
people were always in fear and
almost every painting showed
it,” commented Phil Deines.
Expressionism is a form of
art in which the painter tries to
show his ideas about his subject
or about the times through col
or, symbols, distortions, etc.
Accmpanying the students on
the trip were Miss Wilma Crab
tree, art teacher, and Miss Lynn
Mayer, German teacher.

“Spanish National Honor so

ish,” stated John Seymore, Span
ish NHS adviser.

president Ron Young will be:
promoted to president during
the same ceremony, since Presi
dent Ron Marrs was also hold
ing an office in another club,
which is against school rules,
“The meetings áre somewhat
restricted, so that they won’t
take up much of the students’
timé, and are primarily devoted
to promoting interest in Spanish
speaking countries and their cul
ture. It’s somewhat like the
American Field Service in cul
ture activities,” explained Mr.
Seymore.

Spanish NHS.

Some of the students volun
teered for Mondays, Wednes

The times of when and where
they should meet were discussed
with the principals of each of
the schools.
“This is when they find out if
the teacher profession still inter
ests them, besides being a great
expérience for each one, and as
everyone knows, the best way to
learn is only by experience,”
concluded Mrs. Person.

“This year’s Homecoming was
a success in spite of-its limited
objectives,” commented John
Stuckey, activities director. “It
cpuld have been much better if
there could have been an activi
ties director to organize the
event on a full-time basis.”
Regarding the Homecoming as
a tradition, it is doubted if it
will ever catch on because prop
er facilities are needed. Without
a stadium and facilities to host
the alumni, the needed enthu
siasm for Homecoming is not
there.
“I have observed that Grant
students don’t really get en
thused about any event unless it
is unique to Grant,” stated Mr.
Stuckey. “Most schools have a
Homecoming.”
Homecomings will be contin
ued in the future only if stu
dents indicate the desire that
they do want a Homecoming.

direction of Mrs. Constance Per
son, English teacher, is making
it possible for these students to
find out what the work of the
teacher really involves.
The program has to do
with the job of aiding and
assisting teachers, and is
met under a voluntary basis
of which students sign up
and volunteer their time in
order to help teachers at
Femwood and Hollyrood
elementary schools.
Study halls, lunch periods and
after school time is given up in
order to work on extra projects
by actually assisting the teach
ers.
“I think this is an excel
lent, excellent idea,” com
mented Mrs. Person. “Many
times young people have
the romantic idea of the
teacher’s having such an
easy job, but in this way the
students can really find out
what it is like with the
many different problems
that arise in the classroom.”
Miss Vera Larson is in charge
of the student aids at Fernwood,
with Mr. Robert Fuller in
charge at Hollyrood.
Volunteers aiding at Holly
rood include: Barbara Blossom,
Susan Crookham, Barbara Mc-
Laughtin, Marilyn Lieble, Mar
tha and Nancy Parcel.
Concluding the list are Kir
sten Boemer, Gina Wilcox,
Kathy Perman and Muriel Bueh
