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. /ro$A assembly shows candidates Sample Shop Name Brand GIRL’S f [ Ji \ ÁH'h ’l/ir*\\\ APPAREL at near wholesale prices! /// /// \\' V > / II \ The freshman class election assembly will be held in the au­ ditorium on November 2, with Elizebeth Streukins, student body vice-president, in charge.

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.

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 ler. Fern wood volunteers are: Karolyn Carroll, Holly Arm­ strong, Rita Harris, Barbara Hylton, Jusy Kgai, and Kathy Olafson.
