Third graders in Dee Street's class at Dicken Elementary School learned about animals from inside out Friday. The children were ending a science unit where they chose an animal they wanted to learn about, researched its eating, sleeping and living habits and made their own costumes to become the animals they had studied. The group of cats at right [this photo] are Heide Hosner at the bottom, Nicole Perry, top left, Teri Fontana center and Cassandra Ross, top right. Jack Bryan's costume, above, so frightened News Photographer Larry Wright that he switched to a long-distanced lens and did not get a species identification. However, New Outdoor Editor Doug Fulton says the critter might be a mouse.

Sculptor David Heberling (left)does not even seem to be straining as he apparently sing-handedly eases his massive 18-foot-tall creation into place in the "urban sculpture park" at Fourth Avenue and Catherine. Actually, a giant crane is doing all the heavy work (note the straps at the top). The work, made of steel and weighing 3,500 to 4,000 pounds, represents a portal or gate. Pedestrians will walk between it two legs. An official unveiling is scheduled for noon Saturday. The $4,000 work was paid for by a Michigan Arts Council grant. The plaza, planned by Ann Arbor Tomorrow, was completed with workers unemployed under the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act.
