VT: Think Arrf Think - A real artist's shovvcase evolved under the guidance of first quarter Art teacher, David Nolen. Display areas for batiks, album covers and paintings novv hang fron walls and ceilings in the alcove near the door to the office. It seems more like having your work in a gal- lery, said one student whose vvork was often exhib- ited, Hbut I sure didn't know hovv hard it was to hang displays from the ceilings. Art is a means of express- ing myself in a vvay that I really enjoy, and at Westlake have a chance to be creative, experiment and improve my vvork, says another Westlake artist 2 525, 'fi l .Cv , ! f' ' Sot ,, , 1.

Serving as new vice-principal, Bob Thomas' duties included keep- ing track of text books and making morning announcements. Thomas' broadcast style incorporated the voice of the character Carlton the Doorman from the Rhoda series.

45 Three co-ed courses taught by lvis. Alvena Ftotramel, included such activi- ties as cooking, sewing and mak- ing individual projects. One of the new additions to the Homemaking depart- ment is Single Survival, formerly known as Bachelor Living. Ironing, sewing, housekeeping and learning how to keep a budget kept students busy. Amid the first-try failure and laugh- ter, students in aprons and chef hats cooked their chosen dishes. Students also found that having their choice between the different courses was more beneficial in what they actually wanted to learn. Single Survival, Home Economics, and Food for Singles, are all basic fun- damentals for the young home- maker. 1. Tommy Jackson, Greg Scott and Kyle Cole display their cooking ability in their Food for Sin- gles class. 2. Ms. Alvena Ftotramel explains the details of planning a food lab. 3.
