honors at the Barrington High School Teapot Contest. Guzman, a student
of Mr. Injasulian, placed third in this prestigious contest which
featured work from thirteen other high schools. Fabiola's teapot now

distinctive design in the pencil sketch seen below. Fabiola is also

WAUKEGAN WINS HONORS AT FREMD 4X5 SHOW!
Waukegan High School is proud to announce that Gerardo Olivares won an
"Honorable Mention" award in the "Painting" category of the recent
Fremd 4 x 5 show. The Fremd show featured over 1300 small works of art
from over 40 high schools. 20 Waukegan students participated in the
show. Gerardo's accomplishment was quite a feat to accomplish amidst
so many outstanding works of art. The frist photograph shown reveals a
close-up of his art. The next photograph shows Mrs. Carolyn Blanda, a

own in the "teacher's" 4 x 5 contest. Mrs. Welker had 12 students
