Right: Pointing up a fireplace Below: Constructing a gothic arch Building l2 corners g'icLfaying The bricklaying shop was active under the supervision of Mr. Adam Grundon. ln the fall, the bricklayers built an incinerator behind the School gym. Later they patched up a wall in the basement of Building E and put a doorway in it. The bricklaying Seniors have con- structed a supposed office building. The front entrance is a l2 wall in common bond and has a gothic arch for the doorway. There are also two segmental arch windows followed by a glass block panel window. Also in front of the building there is a planter box for flowers. The office consists of a fireplace, two doorways and two windows. The window jambs have a stack bond affair with a soldier course for the lintel. At the right is a basket weave panel to offset the re- mainder of the wall. The fireplace is of red Roman bricks followed by a stacked soldier panel surrounded by green terrazo tile. This type of construction gives the students practice in the work they will be expected to do while working in the bricklaying trade.
