Pc(s and Pei s his is just one of many student paintings decorating the walls of the business department. Not only were L.B. students academically, athletically, and musically talented, but they excell- ed artistically as well. In-school art entailed a wide range of crafts and mediums easily seen around the building. Beautiful murals, signs done in calligraphy, and various showcase displays boasted of ar- tistic excellence. Art was also in- corporated in academics. Some teachers assigned collages, draw- ings, and other visual aides to be done along with reports. Photography students helped to decorate subschool offices by displaying their achievements in advanced photo technology. Many students made their own jewelry, decorated their homes with clay or paper mache sculptures, and created practical items such as vases, mugs, and ashtrays in pot- tery classes. Looking around our school, it was easy to see that many Bruins would go far in the world of art. Towering over all opponents is this display of Bruin ferocity. ©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©eeee ©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©©a Making shadow boxes is just one of the many crafts learned in art.

All drama students were given the opportunity to par- ticipate. Auditions we re held on Wednesday, September 30, and 46 acts were chosen. Among the variety of acts performed was folk dancing by Luba Demchuk; piano playing by Coy Short; and Monty Python's Argument Factory per- formed by Ken Mikeman and Matt Ondrof.
