In advanced journalism students pub- lished The Northerner and took care of any business affairs. The Legend class published the school yearbook.

. Students apply self-expression IT to create new, unique objects v -., Art classes are doing a variety of dif- ferent things, according to Mr. Kenneth Biberstien. Second year art classes are doing such things as drawing, painting, ce- ramics, sculpting, weaving, print and jewel making, and working with fibers. First year art will work most of the year in designing and drawing (sketching). While first and second year art stu- dents explore many different kinds of art, advanced classes will try such things as introduction of photography and three dimensional work. Art class sometimes brings out best efforts, as Margaret Eykholt does here with clay. In art class, self expression plays a major part. While these students sit on the retaining wall of the St. Joseph River, they are putting down their interpretations of what ' s going on around them. This class is taught by Mr. Biberstien.
