The Drawings Were Discarded: Trial and change is the method by which the junior high is being designed into as perfect a product as possible. Some of the 21 floor plans thought up, changed and discarded are shown while Miss Beverly Gee works and Robert Carrigan, jr., watches Richard Millman reach for an object.

It Took 5,000 Man Hours: This architect's concept of how the projected northwest junior high school could look is shown by Robert Carrigan, jr., Lane's chief designer. Before the design (above) was conceived and put on paper 5,000 man hours of study and drawing were consumed. About 30,000 more man hours will be spent by Lane's staff before the school is built. It is emphasized that the design (above) does not necessarily represent the way the projected junior high will look. No design or architects' plans on the junior high have been accepted by the Board of Education.

Mockup Of Site: Richard Millman is shown working on a mockup of the 27-acre site of the projected northwest junior high school. The mockup gives Lane's staff a third-dimensional view of grade levels and locations of the school on the site, plus the flow of exterior traffic helping in planning.

How They Got This Way: How the exterior and interior spaces shown in free-hand drawings (above) were conceived is explained by Charles W. Lane. About 250 free-hand drawings similar to those shown were conceived and discarded for better ones as the result of meetings Lane held with his staff, conferences he had with school officials and the Citizens Advisory Committee, which is also aiding in the planning for the junior high. Nearly 150 persons are involved in planning the school.
