Rick Frazier, Betsy Hare and Virginia Heimericks practice a Halloween safety skit to be performed at Orange Hunt Elementary School. Safety First Students interested in protecting the school and community from needless accidents joined S.A.D.D. (Students Against Drunk Driving) and the Safety Council. Throughout the year, both clubs placed specific emphasis on driving hazards. While S.A.D.D. pointed out the dangers of drunk driving, the Safety Council stressed the importance of wearing scat belts. In addition, both clubs sponsored a safety week. At this time, students were encouraged to drive with good judgment and to obey the speed limit. Safety Council members also visited Orange Hunt Elementary School to put on a play ex- hibiting good safety measures to be taken during Halloween. By the end of the year, members of both clubs felt as though they had made a significant contribution to the school. S.A.D.D. member Christine Juliano is pleased with the cut down of student related accidents on Burke Lake Road. Safety Council members Trent Kubo and Marianne Helms await the results of Safety week.

Hidden Talents Every year, hundreds of fascinating, intelligent, pieces of art and literature were drawn and written by creative and not so creative students of Lake Braddock. Much of the talent was often hidden away in notebooks, diaries, doodle pads and minds. But then came Chimera; Lake Braddock’s art and literary magazine compiled by and for students. In past years, students didn't hear about Chimera very readily and weren’t sure how to go about submit- ting work. This past year, the idea of a submission box placed in all the subschools evolved. Students could submit art. including photographs, drawings, and designs; and literature such as short stories, poetry, or essays. Much of the work in the magazine was created by students in English and creative writing classes where they had time to write, revise, and perfect. When a work was submitted, a staff member (or members) rated the entry on a point scale of 1 to 5. After being sorted with other writings, members chose which works would be used for publication. The staff of twenty members were all interested volunteers and were lead by the re- maining staff members from last year. The editors were Katie Stafford and Wendy Hirst. Sponsors were Ms. Mur- ray, Ms. Duffy, and Mr. Evelyn. Chimera: Sponsors: Ms. Murray. Ms. Duffey, Mr. Evelyn. Editors: Wendy Hirst. Katie Stafford. Members: Kathy Almstedt. Anthony Beverina.

Chimera sponsor. Ms. Duffey proofreads Lee Rice's material. Although copying information is a tedious job. it is important that Lynne Litterio write down the titles of submitted literature according to their rating during a staff meeting. Enjoying humorous short stories is a fringe benefit for Jin Kim as he reviews a recent submis- sion. 348 Chimera
