Creative artists exhibit projects Art exhibitions? That's one good way to get notoriety. Art students got a chance to show their talents and hard work in various ways through- out the year. Poster contests sponsored by the March of Dimes and by the Humane Society brought in several entries. Honorable men- tion was given to Mrs. Haskett's students. One of the most competitive contests, sponsored by L.S. Ayres, accepts only 1 5% of the entries. Amy LaVertu received honorable mention for her artis- tic entry. Various art projects such as oil and water color paintings, three dimensional pictures, charcoal drawings, and pencil drawings were displayed during the intermission of the spring musical as part of the 500 Art Festival and for parents. An unusual event that ad- vanced students participated in was Mail Art. This project required contes- tants to draw a picture on a postcard and send it to another student, a copy to a professional artist, and a copy to be dis- played in Nevada. Mrs. Haskett's students were the only entries from Indiana in this internationally known com- petition. George Newhart and Paul Koehl competed with other art students for scholarships at the Herron School of Art. Both won scholarships for one class. Michele Horning entered a media show in Carmel and re- ceived a first place ribbon for her drawings. John White wrote the composition which the artwork followed. I think Scecina has a pretty good art department for such a small school, commented Mi- chele Horning. Classes include Arts and Crafts, Art Apprecia- tion, Art, and Advanced Art. TAKING FORM . . . Happy with her achievement. Crystal Harrell smiles as her project takes form. BRUSHING UP on his latest assign- ment, Pat Janitz adds life to his pachy- derm project.

FILIBUSTER! . . . Putting a filibuster on her opponent, Roanna Boruff plays the part of a tough senator during the game of Bottleneck in Government class. Learn from past, Reach for future Thanks a lot! Now I need 60 percent more floor votes, chas- tised Mary Jo Rattermann after being hit with a filibuster. Government students took turns at being senators and re- presentatives as they played Bottleneck. The object of the game was to pass a bill into a law. It wasn't as easy as it sounded because both the House and Senate had to be equal in vote. Supply and demand doesn't seem like a game, but in order to make the principle a little more easily understood, the economics students played a game of Supply and Demand. Several future business men and women were discovered. Insight wasn't just gained through games alone, though. Sister Dolores brought in a few speakers for her junior hon- ors history students. Honor students got a chance to hear the poetry of some fam- ous black authors through Sis- ter Francesca Thompson of Marian College. You have to look beneath the words . . . look for the sub- text, Sister commented as she explained the meaning behind the poems. Father Bernard Ser- vil from Nicaragua along with two students from that country talked about the differences be- tween American life and the re- stricted lifestyle of the people in Nicaragua. PHENOMENAL! . . . Explaining the subtext, Sister Francesca Thompson of Marian College presents poems from famous black authors to the honor students. 60 Social Studies
