Buzzzz . . . , of a saw; grrrr . . . , of a sander; rat-a-tat . . . , of a hammer; or the screech of an electric drill, are all familiar sounds to some students following the industrial arts curriculum. Dividers, angles, T-squares, compasses, and many other tools can be found in the hands of others in the same course taking classes such as mechanical drawing or architec- tural drawing. With careful planning, and a little bit of imagination, the students in shop can find great satisfaction in the completion of many projects, ranging from a simple wire design to a three-dimensional scale house. Those in mechanical or architectural drawing are given a chance to make use of their knowl- edge by planning and carrying out their drawings. Learning to plan and layout parts of machines are the essen- tial factors of mechanical drawing as Dave Austin knows. 13 Planning and making actual scale models of advanced architectural drawing are just phases of the course study. Mr. Paul Brum- mett, instructor, gives some helpful hints to Jim Citta and John Bullock.

Excitement, Plans, Forms, and the Final Take-Off Lead Exchange Students to Fascinating Adventures Reminiscing and comparing activities take up a large part of lunch time in an exchange students’s life. Jean Wolfe, Martha Occasionez, Bob Geyer, Jack Stoehr, and Vincent Vegass discuss our chances in sectionals. New land, new language, new people! . . . the thoughts of foreign exchange students as their plane lifts heavenward amid the waving and tears of Moms, Dads, family and friends. It had seemed like an eternity while plans were being made and confirmed; all that shopping, those good-byes and rushing around. Letters began to arrive and an exchange of cultures was in the offing. Before too long, letters opened with Hola (!) and closed with Chao! Those at home learned of the people of South America; the way they lived, laughed and learned. But too soon it was time to return home. Yes, home . . . friends . . . memories. Just a few more minutes, and a brand new world is opened up to our Spanish Exchange students, Roxanne Vaughn, Jeannie Wolfe, Jack Stoehr, and Anne Brisco.
