Scope and content
Another in a series of home economics photographs featuring Elna sewing machines. Girls at Stadium High School are busy during the morning home economics class conducted by Vella Boyles at Stadium High School on April 17, 1969. The brightly lit room was well equipped with many Elna sewing machines, enough so that each student present had a machine to herself. Elna, a Swiss company established in 1940, was well known for its compact sewing machines. Photograph ordered by Homemaker Supply Co., Portland.
