Worked Jn Plastics Carlson And Sandborn Zaugkt Applied Sciences Under the direction of Ed Carlson, students in the Industrial Arts Department completed over 500 projects this year. They ranged from small desks to a large china cabinet built by Vince Bruno. Ron and Don Carlson finished construction of a grand- father clock that they started building last year. Don Jordan completed a gun rack. Both Rollie Peter and Max Christiansen built desks while headboards for beds proved to be a popular project for many students. Allen Kuhn finished a large work- bench with a metal top which consisted of many storage drawers. Mr. Carlson also impressed his students with the importance of safety around machines and hand power tools, as well as out- lining the procedure used in refinishing furniture. The Arts and Crafts students split their year between the use of four different types of art: leather crafting, acrylics, paint- ing and liquid polyester casting. Sometime was spent with wood in creating pictures and other small projects from small wood cuttings. EDWIN CARLSON, B. S. Arts and Crafts Woodworking LYLE SANBORN, B. S.

One uses skills such as laying cement, painting, and welding quite often through the course of life. For this reason EHS offers Building Trades and General Metals as elective courses. Lyle Sanborn taught welding and forging. During the first part of the year, they were taught about the different alloys and metals. Later he taught them the use of different machine tools and some of the techniques of sheet metal fabrication. The Building Trades class learned the basic concepts of laying cement , and painting. At the beginning of the year they constructed two tackling dummies at the football field. They then proceeded to lay cement at the grade school around the playground equipment. As cold weather set in the class remodeled the basement of the Eagles Nest. In the spring they painted the exterior. 17
