One of the most popular
porjects in the Lake-
Lehman Industrial Arts
Club is that of constructing
remote control model air-
plaines. The planes are
made of balsam, pine and
plywood. They vary in
size, model and price
giving the builder much
leeway and personal
choice.
Club member, Earl
Weidner is building a
glider. His unassembled
kit cost $16 - ordered
through the school. This
would have been some
what more expensive had

The plane can be shot
through the air with a
strong rubber band, or a
small motor. The motor
will take the plane as high
as it can and allow it to fly
for about 15 minutes.
Students can also pur-
chase remote control with
two channel receivers for
about $50. The ‘receiver
operates the rudder and
elevator. The rudder
allows the plane to change
direction. The elevator
changes elevation. Com-
plete with numerous small
pieces, the planes take a
good deal of time to con-
struct. Weidner has spent
about 10 hours on his so
far. “You have to be care-
Obituaries
ful and know what you're
doing,”” he explained,
“You can’t be sloppy. It
takes a lot of hard work
and effort.”
The Industrial Arts Club,
which was started at Lake-
Lehman this year by first-
year teacher, Dan Wil-
liams, provides students
with asvariety of projects.
One future idea is the con-
structin of model drags-
ters. These are called
“Metric 500°’ dragsters
and are equipped with CO2
cartridges which enable
the car to move. They are
raced at state and national
competitions, The model
airplanes are flown com-
petitively only on the high
school level.
