LEN FREEDMAN WINS TORCH ART CONTEST The judges in the ’51 Art Contest had a very difficult time in arriving at a decision. After much discussion time is was decided that Len Freedman would take first prize. The pen and ink sketch was said to have been very “sincere and interest¬ ing—the line work good as well as the perspective and light.” Second prize was awarded to Virginia Juzak for her self-portrait in water color. “The head was well drawn and painted for a water color picture of its kind.” Third prize went to Don Bergman for his very odd yet very smooth pencil sketch. “It was well balanced and showed the knowledge and use of light and ‘color’ in pencil work. The movement in it was its winning feature.” Sid Radinovsky and Richard Bernhardt tied for Honorable Mention. Sid’s pen and ink sketch of Gimli was very original and showed “good contrast in light and dark.” Richard’s sketch was highly imaginative and displayed fine pencil work. This year a special award was given to Randy Klassen. The judges, Miss N. George, Art Supervisor of schools; Mr. W. Christopherson and Mr. B. Metcalfe from the Tribune and Mr. P. Kuch from the Free Press, felt that Randy was too far ahead of the other students and that he should have a special award in the contest. His oil painting of the “Jackpines” was judged as the most noteworthy. Very few entries were received this year although there was a great deal of good talent in the school. It is hoped that next year will show some improvement in the number of entries submitted to the contest. Special Award “JACKPINES” Randy Klassen — XII-37 48
