Before Billy joined us at semester, we were short on staff, and someone always ended up doing a left over page, said Ms. Pat Bonine. To make their work ea- sier, the staff received an electric stapler from the Relaxing work. To speed up the process, junior, Vicki Vande Velde operates the electric stapler.

'tVVe want- ed the stapler because it took us forever to staple the papers, and now we just buzz through it. lt doesn't jam and we can feed those babies right through, said senior Julie Herrington. The staff bulletin board held Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down, which were used to give the staff examples of good and bad news stories. Giving each team an edi- tor was another change that was made. lt was just too much for one editor to handle, said Bonine The editor.

fi.. L it CURRICULUM ART Second ends year Tomlinson earns three awards in art contest by Buck Braden Success has been the key word in the art depart- ment. This success, in most cases, has been directly proportionate to the hard work the students have in- vested in their projects. We have been fortunate in that, not only have the students worked hard, but also we have had quite talented in- dividuals who by their own efforts have inspired the less talented individuals to work harder on their pro- jects. Drawing, painting, and ceramics are areas where this enthusiasm has come to the forefront. All of this hard work and enthusi- asm has reaped rewards for Us in all the departmental areas. Drawing class entered the American Automobile Association Traffic Safety Poster Contest again this year and received first place in the state with Den- nis Anderson's entry. Un- like last year, we also placed second with Chris Designs. During class senior Mi- chele Engelken begins her wall han in for textile crafts. Photob Q Q Y Patty Kennedy. f W Mgt.. Troxel's entry. All of the en- tries then were sent to the National Contest. At the Mid-East League Arts and Crafts Fair, Lake fared well coming in second and missing first place by only nine points. The stu- dents rated a first overall in the categories of Painting, Drawing, and Ceramics. ln Crafts and Graphics, we were second overall and third overall in Drawing, Graphics, Ceramics, Jewel- ry, and Crafts. Also, the students received twelve firsts, nine seconds and eight thirds in the sub-cate- gories. The quality of work at the fair from all the schools was excellent and highly competitive. The art department is en- tering student work in Jim Slattery's Second District High School Art Competi- tion, and we have the Annu- al School Arts and Crafts, Industrial Arts, Voc. Ag., and Home Ec. Show in May in which the students will be showing their handiwork. Modeling. Karen Manhart, fresh- man, poses while her classmates sketch her during art. Photo by Jenny Griggs. Hurry up.
