Winner Worbut8not making money? ure there were times when mon- ey was ev- erything, and true you felt you’d rath- er be doing anything else. But then that sudden urge to be helpful and considerate called you back to reality and the job at hand. Whether cleaning dirty tennis shoes, babysitting squawking kids, sweeping the porch, or changing a flat tire, you had part-time jobs. And most of them were non- paying. With two younger broth- ers, Kelly and Karen Manley had to help their mother, “No, we didn’t get paid,” said Kelly. “But 1 didn’t mind. It’s part of being a family.” Office aide Ruth Johnson helped Mr. Harry Country- man by managing the atten- dance office during her study hall. Patty Ketterman, li- brary aide, worked for Mrs. Phyliss Ganyu. Patty’s job was to return books to the shelves. Giving up Saturdays and other free time didn’t bother junior Debbie Schulten and sophomore Stephany Whor- ten. Both were candy-strip- ers at Sacred Heart Hospi- tal. Although most jobs were non-paying, some teens worked for salaries. Seniors Bob Brode and Stephanie Cutter worked part-time at McDonalds in La Vale. Holding a job was an extra load for Vo-Techers Randy Cutter and John Layton. Randy left school at noon during his academic week to work at Davis’s Supermar- ket. John helped Marshal Ruby at welding. In spite of the added re- sponsibilities, students were willing to give up their free time to help someone else. 1 aking an order, Darrin Winner checks lo sec the final price.

Kelly Manley and Danny Drew watch the W.V.U. band. For many of the 17 bands, including Beall, it was their first performance on the artificial sur- face. What 70 band members called B May having fun? Qeptember 8. Just a normal weekend break from school. Time to cram in the last days of summer. Seventy band students climbed aboard three buses and headed for West Virgin- ia University. From the start they knew that this Saturday was anything but normal. Before the buses even got out of Frostburg, they made an emergency stop. Senior Michelle Duncan had for- gotten her clarinet. A short investigation discovered the instrument under the seat. Arriving at the campus at 8:00 a.m., the musicians looked forward to exploring the campus grounds. The band quickly learned Rule 1: no one was to leave the stadium until after the performance. Rule 2: Ev- erything belonging to the band had to be taken with them to the stadium. Mem- bers could leave nothing on the bus. Band Day officials, having previously told the flag squad and majorettes they would learn routines at WVU, quickly threw the girls for a loop when they in- formed Captain Kathy Kerr that they must prepare their own routines. Luckily, the routine Say, Say, Say, also fit the music, Far from Over. After the final practice, members scurried to the bleachers to retrieve their uniforms. An excited Sean White had brought the wrong uniform, so he sat in the stands to watch his team- mates perform. Senior Lori Brown summed up the day. “In spite of all the problems and has- sles, the overall band perfor- mance was great.”
