for the first time a freshmen affair On November 22 the freshman class, for the first time ever, sponsored the annual arts and crafts fair. Led by chairpeople Marianne Murphy and Buddy Bower, the class of 1990 added to their list of firsts. For example, they rented out one hundred and fifteen tables, the largest amount rented to date. Many students, parents and teachers helped set up on the day of the fair. The event itself ran from ten o ' clock in the morning to four in the afternoon. According to advisor John Schlegal, it was busy from the time the doors opened until they closed. We made over two thousand dollars. The real key, though, was the participation of close to one hundred kids in the freshman class. The artisans that rented the tables displayed goods of wooden objects to clocks and jewelry. Because of the variety, many people were able to get their holiday shopping done. Another attribute which pleased those who attended the fair was the play area for children. It was established so that parents would be able to shop enjoyably while their kids were able to talk or play freely in the area. All in all, the crafts fair was a place that bursted with excitement. Nedlam spent a good part of the day roaming around, making friends, joking with children and just showing his school spirit. Workers enthusiastically sold refreshments— hoping, no doubt, that they would energize the shoppers to buy more—and plenty of great door prizes were given away. Since the first fair in 1982, each has been a success thereafter. This fair was no different. student life 17

the pert that no one gets to see Practice— we all do it whether kr owing or unknowingly. It is o process through which we gain knowledge, experience and perfection. But usually, the word itself is associated only with athletics or music. Most people con picture and othelete working out in that greuling “no pain no gain” manner, or envision o pianist practicing with his teacher glaring over his shoulder. However, there ore many more definitions to the word. Examples of other forms of practice may be readily found throughout the school. For instance, clubs such os the moth team, academic quiz team or choral arts often hold numerous practices after school to prepare for a competition or concert. Daily, students in the occupational education department practice skills which they will need when they graduate from high school and move into the job market. So you can see, there is a whole other side to the term practice than just the average track or tennis type.
