fewwlf Vim, QQMAN fwlwf Wifi ement is always of either extreme. for the second year of an industrial arts program the AIASA ' ' fAmer1can Industrial Arts Student Associationj had a very positive result M . r. Jack Dudley believes. The students involved have a good time and learn a lot. The organization promoted competition among the students. not onl ' ' y within the school. but the throughout the state and nation wide. The students constructed a mass rod t' ' ' p uc lon item to raise money to go to the state contest in the first part of May 1987. Last year Eric Heeren and Gearld Tague took first place in the miniature bridge building contest for strength. This year small trucks were made and sold by members to start the contest. Then partners built miniature bridges and small metric race cars. for judging. Also a major part, the students do certain question activities during the competition. With last years major show in the state competition, l am hoping to make it int th o e nationals this year, added Mr. Jack Dudley. lnvolv zo TWENTY 5-

L A-6 ' 4 ff.-lim e. f 'aw 'igh school isn't high school without the process called TESTING. NS teachers wouldn't be caught dead without one waiting in the wings. and Lancers try to think of just about anything else besides the test tomor- row. Rumor has it that Mr. Agosta, Mr. Cockman, Mrs. Volkman and Mr. Benjamin are really professional testmakers. Mr. Newmeister gives tests with little labels on animal parts: Mrs. Granger gives tests that require the use of several office machines. Semester tests are the worst hour and twenty-five minutes of inquisition. Only Open Campus and a trip to MacDonald's can save the day. Then it is a test to get back for the next test on time! And there is always the whiner's cry: THIS lSN'T FAIR! I DIDN'T KNOW THE TEST WAS TODAY! This outburst never works. but it is worth a try. For some students, a test is the last min- ute chance to save a grade, for others, it's the deciding factor in showing how much they memorized! When the green Scantrons get handed out, you know it is time to grit your teeth and get a firm grip on your No. 2 pencils. With apolo- gies to Ben Franklin, death and taxes are not the only things that are certain in life. As long as there are teachers. there will be tests! They are an inescapable part of North Scott High School. SA? To be assured of an 'A'. David Knight rechecks his essay test in English class to be certain that everything was covered. A hopeless Ryan Klinkrodt tries desperately to remember the answer to number twenty-one on his math test.
