Shop safety stressed
Girls' woodworking class gains skills
by Julie Ferry
Girls’ shop? Yes, it’s a way of
learning. The students learn to
measure, find area, make layout
plans, design, construct and use
different materials. Some of
these materials are hardwoods,
plywoods, softwoods, plastics,
glues and finishes.
Demonstrations and pro­
cedures in operating each
of the eleven power ma­
chines in the shop are given
the students. Hand tools are
demonstrated and safety is
stressed when operating any
tool.
Some of the objectives of this
course are to learn new skills
and develop new techniques and
ideas.
“The girls’ as well as the
DICK CARVER'S
Majestic Drive In Cleaners
boys’ classes are making
some very fine projects,”
stated Louis Schilke, wood­
working instructor.
Some of these projects are
jewelry boxes, candle holders,
hope chests, tables lamps, night
stands, book cases and plastic
tables.
“I am very proud of each stu­
dent’s work and I know the stu­
dent is proud of his own work,”
added Mr. Schilke.
Mr. Schilke teaches six classes
of woodworking. Seniors Donn
Markwardt and Larry Leas help
as teachers’ aids in two of his
classes.
“The classes and each indi­
vidual are to be commended for.
their cooperation in keeping a
safe shop and also for their re­
spect for each other and assum­
ing the responsibility that should
be maintained throughout life,”
stated Mr. Schilke.

Would you like to buy a Proc?
Although you may not know it,
a Proc may be just what you’re
looking for. Proc, which stands
for painted rock, is the name of
a company formed by seniors
Leslie Frey and Patty Polen.
Following the rage of painting
rocks last spring, the girls decid­
ed to start their business after
Leslie gave Patty a banana rock
for her birthday.
“Patty really thought the
rock was neat, so that’s how
Proc came about,” com­
mented Leslie.
This summer Leslie and Patty
started selling their rocks. The
rocks were sold at a psychedelic
shop, making approximately $30
for the girls.
“We hope to sell them through
department stores this year,”
commented Leslie.
There aren’t any special
shapes or sizes of rocks
used. Sometimes you can
match designs with shapes
of rocks, such as using a
somewhat square rock and
making it into a die.
Leslie and Patty have come
up with about 82 different de­
signs and are always interested
in new ones.
The painted rocks range in
price from 25 cents to $5. The
price of the rocks depends on
the size of the rock, the difficul­
ty of the design and length of
time used in making them.
The rocks can be used as pa­
perweights, worry rocks or con­
versation pieces.
“If anyone wants a painted
rock we’ll sell them from our
samples, or make any design you
want us to,” added Patty.
“We hope to keep making and
selling painted rocks till next
summer, however Proc probably
won’t continue as a business,”
Leslie added.

Interested dads invited
to next executive meeting
All dads interested in helping
out in special areas of the school
are invited to attend the next
meeting of the Dad’s club execu­
tive board on November 13.
The plan is to get the dads to
take an active part in helping
teachers or advisers in classes
to carry out this year’s activities.
Four areas which could use
parental help are the instrumen­
tal, choral, forensics, and drama
departments. The parents would
help by being judges, chaper­
ones, supervisors and by provid­
ing transportation for the stu-
dents.
According to Gust Kanas,
vice-principal of curriculum,
““The parents would be actively
involved in special activities.
There would be direct help in
particular activities and it would
help classes and the school as a
whole.”
“We sincerely hope that it
will give the areas of special in­
terest a boost of participation
and give the dads a boost to see
what the students are accom­
plishing,” stated Dr. Clinton
Brown, Dad’s club president.

new designs.
Make-up day scheduled
for appointment failures
According to Willard Mohn,
Memoirs adviser, approximately
50 seniors have not had their
pictures taken because they have
failed to keep their appoint­
ments.
The only day scheduled for
pictures to be taken of students
who have failed to have theirs
taken, for students who would
like retakes and for some fac­
ulty members will be October
31, from 3:30-5:30 p.m.
Any student who doesn’t show
up at that time will not be pic­
tured in the yearbook.
Because the yearbook is the
most complete record of the year
it is urged that all students who
have failed to complete appoint­
ments to date will do so.
Underclass pictures have all
been taken. On December 4
those students whose pictures
for some reason did not turn out
will be rescheduled and retaken
on that day.
Any students wanting to order
packets at $2.00 each may do so
by having their pictures taken
over during lunch periods.
All seniors are asked to return
their proofs no later than Octo­
ber 31.
