I rom store windows to ® magazine advertise- ments, the message was clear — to be slim was beautiful. Body-conscious Americans across the country were tak- ing off those bulging pounds and unwanted inches by run- ning, dancing, fasting, and us- ing diet pills. Over the summer, junior Michele Cotton set up a calo- rie calendar. For Cotton that meant counting everything from a small bag of potato chips to a Champ Pizza. At the end of the summer, she had lost seven pounds. Seventh grader Jill Poland went on a 24-hour diet about four times a month, and Mary Ryan skipped lunch and limit- ed herself to two pieces of CALORIE COUNTER Bread. 1 slice — 60 calories Peas, Vi cup — 55 calories Big Mac — 375 calories Life Savers — 10 calories Jello Pudding Pops — 30 calories Hersheys Kiss —100 calories Tab Cola —1 calorie breakfast, had salads for lunch, and cut out all potatoes and bread. The Cambridge Diet of a powder mixed with water helped Mr. William Payne lose 32 pounds and Mr. James Thompson lose 31.

Art teacher Mrs. Susan Baker never ate too. Girls weren't the only ones caught watching weight. Dur- ing wrestling season, senior Kevin Buckalew weighed in at eight pounds overweight the night before a match.

— L Beeman MAKING HIS DEBUT in jazz ensemble. Brian Edwards reaches for a high note during In the Mood. Edwards has taken instrumental lessons for four years and piano for two years. AFTER THE PARADE. Melody Hitchins carries on with a flag corps member. Melodie Winebrenner. On the return trip home everyone had a good time listening to Jason Brode's tape player and stuffing their faces with Doritos and Twinkles. — L B««man we Got The Beat Unbelievable. Save the word from the St. Louis Cardinals, the Inner Harbor, E.T., and the Beall High Band. Suddenly, selling refresh- ments in the concession stand at halftime wasn’t the only concern of the Band Boosters, for parents paid $5.00 associ- ation dues and organized a pizza sale. The objective — to send the band to the Apple Blossom Parade in Winches- ter, Virginia, on Saturday, May 1. Two months before the pa- rade, Band Director Frank Munson gave out a new song, Grandioso, which members had to memorize. Some marchers had never had to memorize music before. It was a new experience for ev- eryone. In order to update the beat, Mr. Munson hired Craig Har- vey, a Frostburg College music major and a percussionist, to help the drummers put to- gether a new cadence. With Harvey’s ideas and some of their own, the percussion sec- tion had a new style and a jazzed-up cadence. Days before the Apple Blossom Parade, the band marched down Washington Street, McCullough Street, and back around the oval in front of Beall during seventh period. This was one time the band was enthusiastic about practice. Early Saturday morning, on their first big day, band members packed their coolers, brought their tapes and ghetto blasters, grabbed their clean uniforms from the closet, and piled onto the three buses. When the bus arrived in Winchester, all sorts of prob- lems arose. Larry Beal lost one of the buttons to his over- lay. Tausha Whitman’s boat shoes had to be polished black because she forgot her band shoes. And the worst problem was when Jay Jenkins realized that he had forgotten his trumpet. Since no one carried an extra instrument, Jay was stuck without one. He marched in the middle of the rank and hoped the judges wouldn’t see him. Amy Friend’s reed cracked, so she couldn’t play her clari- net, and “what notes did come out squeaked.” After the parade was over and the kids were in their shorts and tee-shirts, the bus- es headed to the Tastee-Freeze in Hancock. Chuck McCor- mick showed off at the arcade with a high score of 19,000 on the Astro Blasters machine. On their way home, the kids on the Band Bus §2 jammed to Louis Hall’s Rick James tapes while the eighth and ninth graders rocked to Jason Brode’s cassettes. At 9:30 p.m. three bus loads of exhausted band members, silk squad, and majorettes pulled into the oval. The buses were unloaded, instruments put away, the band room locked up. Everyone was ready to go home and hit the sack. It had been a tiring day. BAND
