                                         ave  any  spare  time?  Some
                                    H students  did,  and  applied  it  to
                                    arts  and  crafts.  For  senior  Leanne                                                            o
                                    Kullenberg,  arts  and  crafts  came  very
                                    easily.  Leanne  could  never  sit  down
                                    without  something  in  her  hands.  Her
                                    work  varied  from  wheat  weaving  to
                                    macrame.  She  also  found  time  to  sew
                                    her  own  clothes.
                                      Christmas  was  a  busy  time  for  some
                                    people,  and  for  Leanne  it  was  hectic.
                                    For  several  years  she  had  made  all  the
                                    different  ornaments  for  her  family’s
                                    Christmas  tree,  which  differed  from
                                    year  to  year.  She  also  made  the
                                    different  decorations  around  the  house
                                    for  all  the  other  holidays.  Holiday  or
                                    not,  one  could  always  find  the
                                    Kullenberg  house  prepared  to  fit  the
                                    season.
                                      “I  find  that  making  things  can  always
                                    keep  me  busy,  and  I  am  very
                                    interested  in  doing  crafts  and  finding
                                    time  to  do  all  the  fun  things,”  said
                                    Leanne.
                                      Another  active  person  at  Ralston
                                    was  junior  Rob  Ek.  Rob  was  involved
                                    with  Thespian  (drama)  Society,  as  well
                                    as  being  an  excellent  artist.  Like
                                    Leanne,  Rob  enjoyed  making  things  for
                                    his  house  as  well  as  for  himself.  He
                                    starred  in  the  AA  Review  as  “Danny
                                    the  Spaz”  from  the  t.v.  show
                                    “Fridays,”  and  played  Danny  Zuko  in
                                    the  production  of  “Grease.”  He  had
                                    also  been  in  the  plays  “Lil’  Abner,”
                                    “Oklahoma,”  “The  King  and  I,”
                                    “Midsummer  Night’s  Dream,”  and  the
                                    award-winning  “Robber  Bridegroom.”
                                      “1  always  do  things  that  I  feel
                                    comfortable  doing.  Acting  is  something
                                    I  enjoy  doing  and  1  will  act  until  I
                                    graduate,”  said  Rob.  “You  make  a  lot
                                    of  friends  in  the  plays  and  really  have
                                    a  good  time”.
