The cafeteria was strategically di- into three areas, providing activities and pastimes Seaquence played stage, as people danced below. progressive rock included songs, and ones by Gene- Asia, Pink Floyd, and others. A clearance was made in ront of the stage to provide a com- act but efficient dance floor. Tables in the rest of the cafeteria seated people grabbing a bite to eat or resting on danced-out feet. Student Government members brought refreshments, the Booster Club sold food while students cleaned up. This was not the first time such an activity was held. Called the Coffee House last year, it was not as suc- cessful, perhaps because of lack of entertainment. Fallon had originally caught on to the idea of a Coffee House at a workshop the year be- fore. That night was actually the sec- ond time Seaquence set foot on lvlit- ly soil. Seaauence had originally been scheduled to play before Pen- ny Lane last October lst. But the foot- ball game had been rained out the day before, and both events were packed into one hectic Saturday, leaving no room for Seaauence's performance. Thus, they made their reappearance for the Nightclub! Concert. improvements aimed for next year are better advertisement and more variety in refreshments. Everything went as planned. The small crowd thoroughly enjoyed themselves, said Fallon. - Li lVliao -

Hackers away! This generation belongs to the hackers. Mitty obtained ten Hewlett-Packard computers to accommodate students needs. Proposals for the grant were presented two years ago and updated several times. Persons involved included parents Joe Brescia, Bob Mitchell, Gail James, Dir- ector of Development George Reilly, and computer and science teacher Judy james. The ten HP's will be useful in compu- ter-aided instruction, especially in reme- dial programs, and the staff will be encouraged to use them. Students can use these and other computers in the resource room through a user-access card. Last autumn, seven Apple IIe's were received. The four original NorthStars will be sold, and fifteen more Apples will be obtained. The Capital Endowment Campaign provides for a computer lab in the future. Our goal is computer literacy for all Mitty graduates, commented computer science teacher Larry Oliveria. -Li Miao- The crispy crunch of little greens With crisp greens, crunchy carrots ai spicy salad dressings, the salad l: caused new waves in the campus f food business.
