Erection of an 184 ton steel truss to support a gymnasium roof on Thursday was another major step forward in construction of the new Skyline High School at 3250 East 3670 six-ye- mount. He won a trophy with it this year at Utah State Fair. Mr Davis mounted the eagle with curved wings simulating the manner in which the live bird would hover over food to conceal it from sight. The bird is clutching a pheasant which Keith also mounted. When choosing eyes ror his birds, he likes to select those with deep dark brown color to give the bird an appearance of liveliness and tranquility. For the pheas-ant, however, he inserted eyes and then drew the transparent eyelids shut for a more natural effect. Classes from Sherman school have several times visited the Davis half-acr- e bird farm to see the pheasants which he and his wife Claudia raise. Keith and Claudia arc members of the Utah Pheasant Society and he is constantly striving to perfect his breeds, endeavoring to return them to their pure strain.
