SAVE ME!-A cloth alligator pursues a stocking maiden in a puppet drama before members of the after school children's class in the department of art education.
With an old sock, bits of yarn, and scraps of material, Elementary Art Education students are learning to make the stories of childhood live.
Puppets May Help Shy Ones
After the puppets are made the students write scripts to fit the characters and give performances for local school children.
"The project in the art methods classes the past few weeks has been to make hand puppets with the use of scraps," said Miss Alice Schwartz, instructor of education and design.
The elementary education majors see the possibilities of using this project in teaching children, Miss Schwartz said. Being able to hide behind a stage and make a puppet perform is one way of encouraging the shy school child.
"It is also quite a challenge for the students to put themselves on the level of the children," she continued. "It is sometimes distracting when a grade school child sees the flaws in a puppet show concerning space men."
Among the puppet characters now on display in 109 Bailey are Albert the Alligator from "Pogo," a costumed lady from the Mardi Gras, A man from Mars, A St. Patrick's Day puppet, a French artist, Indians, and clowns.

TV Studio Almost Done
The television rehearsal studio in Hoch Auditorium basement is about 95 per cent finished with only a little wiring and re-touching to do, Keith Lawton, administrative assistant for operations, said today.
The entire basement area formerly was storage space, but with the need for television laboratory space, it is being remodeled and television equipment installed.
One of the walls is brick and the other is wood panel suitable for painting.
The walls in the hallway leading to the television studio were formerly of rough concrete but have been paneled off. The space between the old and new wall is being used for a storage space.
Two rickety wooden doors leading into the hallway have been replaced.
