His interest and enthusiasm quickly infected his students and the result was a number of school-wide projects during the year. His painting classes concentrated on preliminary drawings and water colors, while Crafts I and II students worked with projects on fibers, weaving, rag hooking, batik, basketry and even, weather vanes. Those enrolled in ceramics spent much of their time on container-making, producing pots and urns from the potter’s wheel.

Industrial Arts Projec t £ ttract Man y With enrollees evenly divided between woods and metals, strong interest continued to be evident in shop classes. A major portion of class time was spent in activities, with beginning students being required to complete required projects. In woods these ranged from a tool box to four-drawer dressers. In metals they ranged from tool boxes to the making of custom tools. All students received instruction on the operation of power equipment and tools and general shop safety. More advanced metal projects included small woodburning stoves, outside coach lamps and cast aluminum items. Veteran woods students completed a sound center and a table or chest of hardwood. They also were allowed to refinish furniture. Metal fabrication projects included go-carts, trailers and metal model-making, (especially popular with crafts students). 1: Senior Mark Kleiver demonstrates his ability on the milling machine. 2: Working to perfect skill on the metal lathe is Jerry Baker. 3: Sophomores David Dicky and Jay Sullivan assemble dowel joints in Woods II class. 4: Mr. Brooks Wagner, Woods II. 5: Mr. Gary Thayer, Metals. 6: Mr. Dave Breeden, Drattina.
