Show - 8 Lakeside Review, Tuesday, May 15, 1990 Youth c I West Point students see talents on display V T'Kj By RUTH MALAN syft; Standard-Examine- $ Sl5 5 f0&' ,s r correspondent rt surrounds us; its found in more than just paintings and music. Thats the message students at West Point Elementary learned when artists in diverse areas displayed their talents during the recent Festival of the Arts. A taxidermist, an Air Force pilot, a rodeo clown, a cowboy, hair stylists, cheerleaders, dancers, a glass blower, and an Italian cook all demonstrated their talents to the crowds of children. Groups of older boys, younger boys, older girls and younger girls attended four of the 16 demonstrations of art. Sounds of awe came from the crowd around glass blower Carl Jensen as he lit bis propane torch and a yellow flame shot a foot beyond the end of the torch. He showed the group how the flame wasnt hot enough to melt glass until oxygen was mixed with the propane, raising the temperature to 2,100 degrees Fahrenheit. He uses a special pyrex glass to form all types of glass figures, and formed a dragon with wings right before their eyes. Doning special eyeglasses to cut down on the glare the veteran glass blower used two pieces of glass held between his nimble fingers, bending and twisting the heated glass until a head began to take shape. The children were spellbound as they watched, occasionally uttering awesome and cool as they observed his talents. It cools fast so it stays where I want it, Jensen told the children. He separated the new figure from the glass while forming the tail. The students applauded his performance. In another area of the school and among older students was another artist. I was just doing my job the high school hired me to do, said Dean Steed, a quadraplegic who was injured by a bull during a high school rodeo. Sitting in total silence with full attention on the e man in a wheelchair, fourth- - through boys felt the impact of what Steed was saying. On May 6, 1989 Steed was working as a clown in Hyrum when a cowboys foot got caught in a rope. Steed tried to help the bull rider when the bull turned on him and threw him into the air. Steed said he fell on the ground with his legs facing up. his body twisted with his stomach on the ground and head bent down. According to doctors the accident caused his spinal cord to be pinched, cutting off the circulation. Doctors said I would never move my legs again, that I would have to learn to live out of a PTA-sponsor- ed fA .; 'fc. v '.r y. - M:--y , ' !" ; ' ;'! - . ;;4p : - vjriff' Lx V ' ," '4V ,Jfc fff, s jt&,',.& 44 I ?? y t .; , x i, ;:; 5s sixth-grad- - . ,4f X . s U v' 'Av X , 4, - v, fesivVx? yyy - i.4 Ar- - iPs h& ;Y ,"XVJ SSLt.. ffg Glass blower Carl Jensen crafts a unicorn out of glass as West Point student Josh - sasa Robert t ReganStandard-Examine- r Gailey looks' on. Jensen and others visited the school during an art festival. wheelchair. As he told the boys the story he reached down and moved the foot support of his chair and moved his left leg using muscles he was told he w'ould never use again. Paralyzed from his neck down the former rodeo clown has regained controlled movement in both arms and hands and is working on his legs. I can swim on my back,1 he said. Every morning I get on my hands and knees and crawl. I want my mind to know my legs are still there. I will walk again, said Steed, who credits God and his faith for helping him accomplish things the doctors said he couldnt. He told the boys he used to teach children to be bull fighters and cowboys calling rodeos a tough hard game. Outside another group was learning how to rope cattle" and ride a bull from another type of cowboy. Dusty Morse and his mother, Julie, know something of rodeos. D.ustys father was a professional cowboy and bull rider. Dusty climbed up on a moving barrel suspended by ropes from the play equipment in the school yard. As the barrel was jerked back and forth the young boy held on with one hand while swinging the other to keep his balance. That looked easy to the boys watching and most of them wanted to try their hand at riding the I bull. But staying on the barrel was harder than it looked. As each boy climbed on and the barrel began to move no more than 5 seconds passed before each one was thrown to the ground, but they kept trying. The barrel is nothing like riding a bull, said Dusty, whose mother said his father couldnt even ride the barrel. A fake steer head hooked to a bail of hay served as a steer for the younger boys to practice roping. . The Syracuse Junior High cheerleaders showed the art of cheerleading to the older girls of the school, helping them get into the spirit by joining in the cheers. Dancers danced and a pilot talked about the thrills of flying a plane. And a taxidermist showed stuffed birds and animals as some of his art work. Hairdressers from L.A. Connection told their audience not to braid hair when its wet because when it dries it will break. When an elastic holder gets caught in the hair have someone cut it out, dont pull on it and damage the hair, they said. An Italian cook, Lena Rauzi, showed girls how to make an Italian cookie called pizzelli. A special cooker much like a waffle iron is used to make the decorative sweets.
