ALL'S FAIR I TI-IE SCIENCE hat did model planes, a walking robot, and plants that had to breathe car exhaust have in common? They were just a few of the 34 projects that were entered in the Science Fair that took place from January 11 to January 16 in Room II. This was the first science fair in many years, and many students interested in science decided to put forth the extra effort to enter. The pro- jects competing in the fair ranged from an observation of the behavior of different col- ored cats to the effects of G-force on grass. Many students devoted a lot of their free time to perfect their science fair projects. Unfortunately, some students with original ideas had no time to transform them into scientific wonders, A disappointed senior Shane Sauby commented, I really wanted to make love my robo-spider! So happy that he got his project into the fair, freshman Marcus Young doesn't even care whether or not he wins. Science Fair mustard gas for the science fair, but l couldn't find the time. Judges from administration, Mr. Nicholson, Mr. Sambar, Mr. Marsh, and Mrs. Gale and the student representatives seniors Shwan Kim and Shane Sauby spent two and a half hours deciding the winners on January 14. Seniors Gerald Morgan proudly accepted the first place award. His project analyzed how different types of wings affected the performance of rockets. In second place was freshman Luke John with his experiment which analyzed the effects of zero gravity on plants. Third place was awarded to freshman Warren Rogers with his project on remote controlled all-terrain vehicles. A poster-making contest was held for those who wanted to participate but were not scientifically inclined. The purpose of the contest was to produce an appropriate science fair poster. Matt Edwards' first place winning poster was seen hanging all over the school. Every time I turned around I saw that poster, said sophomore lan Voecks, it looked great. Taking second place was junior Jinha Kim, and junior Matt Pulcifer designed the third place poster. The Science Fair gave everyone involved a chance to show their science skills. Some people, having missed the first fair, hoped to submit a project in the future. I only wish I hadn't waited so long, commented junior Rudi Liden, even some of the freshmen are ahead of me! by Tim Gharib ,tl ,Q ,N SQ yt if .J if
