Jaruczik was one of the five Durham competitors. During the ail-day competition he had te transfer the design of a bungalow onto a computer screen. 'Iw"s surprised it was just straight copying from blue- prints,» says Jaruczik. "There wasn't much thinking involved. With architecture, there should be more of a design problem.» He says the Ontario Sk10ls Competition was a lot more difficult. He was required te, modify the design he was given by drawing an apartment on top of a garage. Don Ilk, who teaches Jaruczik in architecture at Anderson, says he was alo surprised at the lack of challenge in the competition.
