With this in mitui Mrs. Alice Flem- ing's art students began their work of the year, and a big year it was! There were projects and prizes, recognitions and honors everywhere. Early last fall Phil Kendall was in- formed that his linoleum block print had received an honorable mention rating in a national art contest, sponsored by Scholastic magazine. A few months later Norman High’s art classes broke into print when an article concerning last year's hospital murals appeared in the January, 1950 issue of School Arts magazine. Mrs. Fleming’s classes co-operated in school activities bv painting posters for both junior and senior plays. They also painted the back drop for the operetta, Rio Rico. given by the music department. In the spring the art classes entered their best works in the AAUW contest. Scholastic state competition and the Edmond festival. Students whose work was chosen for judging in the Edmond festival accompanied their entries to hear the judges' criticisms. In addition to our outward accomplishments, we also learned to understand those basic principles of art- color, perspective, coni|»osition and design. Charlotte Isom, class president, using transparent water color, puts finishing touches on a church. 128]
