In the class competition for
landscape plan for Richard Mont

each plan. The judges were Mr..
Feddeman, Board of Education; Mr..
Gibson, Rockville Elementary
School; Mr.. Muth, Bethesda Chevy
Chase High School; Mr.. Cairns,

The survey resulted from the
surveying techniques taught in the
classroom and the actual work in
the fields. The landscape design
developed from the layout and
drafting practices taught, and the
plant materials represent the stud
les in related science.
The class in landscape planning
expects to begin transplanting
some of the existing shrubbery next
week, under the supervision of their
instructor, Mrs. Winona Reed.
