Art students are given much freedom in the selection of projects. A bicentennial mural was the main project of the art classes I, II, and III. It contained scenes of the nation, the state, and the city. Under the direction of Mrs. Janet Stevenson, the students studied the seven elements of design and put them to use. Art I gained its first experience in timed drawings, pencil and charcoal sketches and the color wheel and value scale. Together with the Art II and III classes they constructed ceramics on the wheel and by hand. Students also delved into the intricacies of sculpture. Art II students lived equally interesting lives with their projects in water color, acryllic, charcoal, pencil and sculpture. Art III was an in- dependent study course in which students selected their own areas of work. ART 13 Karla illustrates the efforts of all art students on the mural at Skogmos

Spanish classes at CMS began with Spanish I. In this class, students learned the basic vocabulary and verb conju- gation as well as translation. With a promotion to Spanish II, the legends of Mexico and Spain were unfolded for the stu- dent. Other units covered were verbal descriptions of each room in the house, Spanish folk dance, and popular American skits in Spanish. Another project engaged in by class members was the aquisition of foreign penpals. Vocabulary is an important part of Spanish. Teamwork helps Spanish II students remember their assignments. Spanish I classes adorn the bulletin board with hand-made valentines. 12 SPANISH

Shop classes at CHS were as varied as the students who took them. From mechanical drawing, basically for fresh- men, to leather and plastics, so popular that juniors and sen- iors usually fill them, courses were offered to teach CHSers to build things with their hands. Wood-working classes in- cluded bench woods, cabinet woods, and machine woods. All industrial arts sections were open to both boys and girls. This year, Mr. Humpal instigated a two-hour per day course for beginning students. Cindy Cummings examines the leather-working kit each student must purchase if he takes leather. The lathe is demonstrated by Brad Rutan in machine woods. Shop students use facilities in the Ag room to complete their projects. 14 INDUSTRIAL ARTS
