ILLUSTRATION: PHOTO:  LORA GORDON. Jennifer Smith, 11, draws a nose and 
          whiskers on for David Boyd, 9, as they and the other members of the 
          Elliston-Lafayette Elementary School team get ready to compete in 
          Saturday's Odyssey of the Mind competition at the Dedmon Center at 
          Radford University. Jennifer, a fish, was getting David ready for 
          his role as a catfish. Wendy Joines, 8, a starfish, watches and 
          encourages David on how to help make getting his whiskers a little 
          easier. See story on Page 2. color.
