Leiker Likes Students Mr. Doug Leiker, 23, a native of Hays, Kansas, was the new industrial arts and drafting teacher. He received his diploma and a B.S.E. in industrial arts at Fort Hays State U. After taking Mr. Leiker's class, students were very adept in the shop. His shop classes learned how to design and build a shop project along with learning the basic safety rules and regulations. When asked about the students he taught, Mr. Leiker said, The students here are very easy to work with. When not busy with school or his wife, Susan, Mr. Leiker enjoys running. A familiar face in the vocational agriculture and farm shop classes was Mr. Stan Newby. Not only did Mr. Newby keep busy with his four vo-ag classes and his farm shop class, but he also found time to be the FFA advisor. In the vo-ag classes, Mr. Newby taught a general look at all aspects of agriculture and ag-related businesses. In farm snop, students incorporated their knowledge of ag and shop into building something which would be useful to them.
