PAGE SEVEN Nineteen hundred tired 4-H club members from throughout Oregon left for their homes June 15 after attending the 53rd annual summer school at Ore gon State university in Corvallis. They had good reason to be tired. During their stay the 4-H’ers attended classes, par ticipated in social events, com peted in sports, listened to top flight entertainers and were ex posed to a college atmosphere. The 4-H Summer School used to last for two weeks, but it has since been shortened to one, keeping the young people busy from the time they get out of bed until they drop back in at night. Classes have changed since 4-H Summer school began in earnest in 1916 as a regular feature of the youth education program of the OSU Extension service. Fifty-two years ago, the girls received instruction in cooking, sewing, physical education and heard talks about “Women’s In fluence,” while the boys studied livestock, soils, milk testing and weed control. This year’s Summer School offered classes in subjects as diverse as karate, art apprecia tion, financial planning for education, recreation and song leadership, leathercraft, modeling, microbiology and electricity, among many others. This is a far cry from the days when agriculture and home economics were the sole curri culum. Twenty-six different subjects were offered in all, with nine of the 26 being offered for the first time. OSU staff and extension workers taught most of the classes, but specialists from outside the campus added their knowledge to the classrooms. Among the 175 instructors — OSU faculty, county extension agents, high school teachers and others — 30 industry repre sentatives who were in Corval- SIZES 6’/a to 12.................................
