Boys ' Art Individuality Through Creativeness “This is the way to do it,” Sr. Genevieve states, as she demonstrates the art of carving to D. Krall, J. Young, P. Michalak and P. McKeig. Boys’ Art classes, under the direction of Sister Genevieve, as a special project this year, experimented with unusual techniques of continuous line, textiles, and string and ink to increase their creative ability. The boys are also preparing a portfolio, using pencil, India ink, and dry brush for their samples, which will aid them in seeking a job or preparing for college. An exchange of art with Toledo, Spain, was introduced this year. Various water- colors were entered using Toledo, Ohio, as a theme. The boys also entered watercolors using their daily life as a setting for the Junior Red Cross project which is held annually. Page 18

Spanish iComo se llama usted? S. Miles, K. Jablonski, M. Hernandez’s answer to Sr. Felicitas’ question must have been a laughing matter. E SPA N A LAS MONTANA! LOS RIOS This phrase, one of the first a Spanish student learns, opens for him the door to one of the most colorful, romantic nations of the world. Central students are offered a four year course in Spanish during which time they learn the grammar, customs, geography, and history of Spain. The course for the first two years is devoted mainly to grammar while the subject during the last two years is focused on a more thorough background of the country and its people. With the eye of the world focused on the South American countries, the Spanish student, through his studies can more thoroughly understand the people and there¬ fore help to foster a better relationship with our Spanish speaking neighbors.

Girls ' Art Joy Through Productivity J c -) J Tile mosaics intrigue D. Siminek and S. Hohenbrink while paper mache fascinates L. Kondalski and B. Dore. In the girls’ art department a contempo¬ rary theme was stressed for their creative work this year. Cutting, fluting, tearing and bending are terms widely used in the art of paper sculpture covered by them. Also as a new project the girls experimented with colored glass which was fired in a kiln and then used for a stained glass mobile. The study of art history is important as a background for the girls’ own creative work. Art history is divided into four cycles; Modern art is made more interesting as each girl represents an artist—and uses material as music and literature to correlate with the life and ways of the artist she chooses.
