The Art Room Delby . . . please come and help me!'l just a minute there, you young Scaramouche! I'm busy over here! Anyone entering the art room, a famous place at Edgewood, is bound to hear this. Several steps further he will undoubtedly crumple to the floor in a heap, due to the pitfall every person unfamiliar with the art-room encounters, that low slanting eave which has dealt out so many headaches! Upon recovering, and looking around, he will see Deacon Chute thoughtfully chew- ing a pencil, and bent over a sketching. Roger Lane and Peter Carr will be discussing the Dodgers' last victory while drawing little baseball figures. Dot Flink and Lynn Staley will probably be dabbing at an oil painting, with helpful comments from joan Connally. jim Van Dyk will be drawing grisly and distored faces, with cheers from jack Sargeant, a fellow artist. Upon investigation, a minor roar will prove to be Gerry Frankel, Marcia Hubert and Sandy Pray, discussing the merits and faults of each others pen and ink drawings. Evelyn Richardson will be quietly and artistically at work. Janie Hamilton will most likely be drawing horses galloping across a page, with janet Rosenblum admiring them. And wandering in and out among these, and many more, will be Mr. Delbos, either beaming at a new discovery or lending a helping hand to a needy one. This is the art room, a busy, cheerful place. We all love it and hope that the visitor leaves with this impression. x

Work Shop If you can push your way through machines, shavings, tools and chunks of wood, you will find yourself in a large, well lighted workshop. Many of Edgewood's big projects are constructed in this room. May Day would not exist without the necessary equipment and wood with which to build the booths. No stage company in New York makes better stage sets than the boys in our shop. Besides these, articles, such as trays, tables, lamps and platters, are made by the younger boys and girls to take home. The latest equipment is used, also a small forge has been installed, at which hammered copper pieces are made. You might stop to talk to Mr. Notaro, the instructor. He will describe the huge globe the fifth graders made in the shop, he will tell you the history of the miniature fort in the upper hall, you will find out what inspired the eighth graders to make the beautiful plaque now hanging in their room, in fact if you talk long enough you will undoubtedly discover that the bench you are sitting on was made by one of our students. l 5:1111 4,
