Belly chop. A form of working with the body was represented during Spirit Week when junior Cheryl Wyatt not only dressed in a karate suit but also tried her skills on senior Jim Colby. Iron it out. After sewing the material, junior Karen Dec smoothes it over with an iron. From dresses to pillows sewing seems more economical and educational than buying. With his eyes on his work, junior Brett Rush attempts to make the cut at just the right spot. After the cutting, assembly and finishing is over, Brett will turn it in for a grade. 24

Angry Picassos call work abstract (continued from pg. 20) in Ceramics are the Picasso People in Drawing and Painting. These valiant but barbaric people have been known to attack bare canvasses with nothing more than a sharpened pencil and a handful of camel ' s hair paint brushes. When their brush projects do not turn out as they had planned, some of these people have been known to simply add a few angry blotches of red and say that the painting is abstract. The most intense Picasso People take six semesters worth of Drawing and Painting. Then in Wood Shop we find the chislers who become skilled with their hands, able to create beautiful things from scraps and pieces of wood. These people are closely related to the Goodwrench Guys in machine shop who learn about engines. In the business department, one can find the Phlapping Phalanges, those who take typing and shorthand. Though the rest of the bodies stay relatively calm, their fingers do the Highland Fling. (continued on pg. 25) What ' s cooking?

Land of exertion visited by many (continued from pg. 23 ) In Foods classes, one can find the Slop Slingers working side by side with the cuisine connoisseurs, and in Clothings classes there are those who sew fine garments and those who sew bad duds. When one visits the band or choirs, he may find the Toe Tappers. Those Toe Tappers who are in the choirs practice heavy breathing exercises while those in band always remember the motto, Loose lips sink pitch. Also, interspersed among the classes, are the teacher ' s aides who come in all shapes and sizes. We see the Gophers, constantly scurrying about on important missions; the Pack Mules who are heavily burdened with the work the teachers give them and we occasionally observe the Lucky Ducks who find time to do homework while being an aide. Whether you are familiar with the land of physical exertion or you are just visiting, we all pass through this land during our day, even if it is just when passing from one class to another. L Working with the body Handy woman. As a project for Arts and Crafts senior Lori Wathen constructs a repousse by hammering nails into copper to form a picture. Metal tooling can be used at home or as a gift. 25
