There's a method to this castanet-clicking madness, only it's hard to master without castanets. Some Arts High students, who are interested in clay work are able to arrange their schedules so they have a Ceramics class during school hours; others cannot do tin's. Our Potter)- Club is organized for this latter group. This Club enables the members to work, after school, on any suitable Ceramic problem they may choose. The Club meets every Friday afternoon in B8. The dues are paid weekly, five cents per week. The money collected is used to buy glazes and materials for the group use. The members may try their hand at ceramic modeling and sculpturing of figures of animals or people or they may try any of the various processes used in making ceramic pieces. These processes are pinched bowls, coil building, plate or slab building, press mold pieces, slip casting (in plaster molds), and if any member is willing, and eager to practice sufficiently, he may leam to throw on the potter’s wheel. Decorating and glaze application is part of the course too. When the pieces arc finished they are taken home by the student. 27 Clay in the hands of Miss Howe's creative artists sometimes results in small wonders.
