All Practical Stuff Introduction to the industrial world “It’s all practical stuff — they might use what they’ve learned in a job or it might become a hobby but it can all be used,” said Mr. Robert McClellan of his power and print classes. The class is one of four high school industrial arts classes offered at Hauser. “Industrial arts is an introduction to the industrial world in which most people will eventually be working,” said industrial arts teacher Mr. Dave Irvine. The junior high classes included work in both textbooks and workbooks, worksheets and films as well as the hands-on experience in the shop with projects made of wood. In the high school curriculum. Woods I and II expand on the junior high knowledge. A wall caddy was the required project for this year’s students who were also required to do a refinishing project in woods classes. The other projects the students made were of their own choice. They furnished their own materials, preferable from scraps they could find laying around at home or in lumberyards. “I made a stereo cabinet in Woods I. I enjoyed doing it because I did it myself and saved money in the process,” said sophomore John White. Besides the classes in woods, mechanical drawing and power and print are also offered. Mechanical drawing focused on architectural drawing, renderings and drawing mechanisms. Power and print teaches the operation of the offset presses, darkroom procedures and screen printing. The class is responsible for a lot of printing done for the school. Tickets, basketball schedules, and note pads are a few of the items the class prints. “Anything the Xerox machine cannot do such as enlarging or reducing — we can,” said Mr. McClellan. “I think these classes are worthwhile and fun. You get to choose your own projects once you’ve finished the ones that are required,” concluded junior Shawn Young. Bettyc Qucllcn gives advice to Mike Asher on the finishing touches of the house he built for her in senior high industrial arts. Mike received an A for the project. Lori Christy measures a line to the exact specifications given from a drawing in her mechanical drawing book. The class helps the students learn about architectural drawings. Russell Burton takes basketball schedules out of the duplicating machine. The power and print classes were in charge of the schedules.
