Rod Farney suggested and designed the new show cases in the high school lobby. One of two sections was to be used for depart- mental use. The show cases were built by Butala Construction. Farney says the students in the art classes have shown a great deal of participation, with several of the students selling their own work. Field trips for the art classes are few because of the number of students. Salida hosted an art show for the Pikes Peak League in May. The art department purchased twelve new easels, and is planning to obtain other equipment includ- ing a metal melting furnace and welding materials for metal sculptures and wood and stone sculpturing equipment. The new equipment will allow art students to have the opportunity to build their skills. 7

THE SUN DIAGNOSTIC machine, one of two new addi- tions to the auto-shop, has been providing participating students with a chance to build their mechanical skills. Frank Bras- well, auto-shop teacher, said, The Sun was purchased for $5,000 with money from the school and from a state voca- tional fund. The other addition is an exhaust analyzer. Braswell said, It's the only one like it in town. He explained the analyzer weighs waste particles per million (ppm) and is used in connection with emission con- trol. Jim Gentile, wood-shop teacher, said, More girls were in this year's classes than in the past - mainly in his second hour class, which is wood-shop. 9
