With careful selection Mr. Samuelson had chosen 24 of the best band players to make up the well known “Jazz Band.” Unlike the Symphonic Band and the Concert band, the Jazz Band played special selec- tions arranged just for this type of band. (1) David Weeks, (2) George Tabor, (3) Jan Elmore, (4) Joe Flores, (5) Bryan Thompson, (6) Tony Swin- dall, (7) Sidney Herren, (8) Willie Brewer, (9) Mary Ely, (10) Larry Nuckols, (11) Steve Hollinger, (12) Mitch Ratzloff, (13) Don Weeks, (14) Phil Lawrence, (15) Kevin Kill- ian, (16) Mike Thompson, (17) Mike Crawford, (18) Ricky Car- ruth, (19) Matt Kelso, (20) John Hinkle, (21) Theresa Schultz, (22) Susan Schultz, (23) Cindy Herren, (24) Ellen Buice. The Concert Band consisted of mostly Freshman and some Sophomores. The Con- cert Band needed to grow to its full potential with out holding back the more expe- rienced students. Both bands played classical music but the Concert Band’s mu- sic was not as difficult to play as the Jazz Band.

1) Chris Jenkins gives Elvis Presley competition. 2) Mr. McCollum shows playing Mickey Mouse with Bryan Hicks, Dolly Medina, and Donna Lucy doesn’t take talent. 3) Tim Tynes and Paul Kelly can’t keep their minds on what they're doing. 4) Libby Pollard, Jerome Thornton, and Mindy Crouch discuss problems during dress rehersal with Mr. McCollum. 5) The 50’s are recreated by Donald Bo- son and Pamm Varley doing ‘Singing in the Rain.” 6) Lisa Anderson looks happy when getting into a trash bag in the “Radio Commercial Contest.” 7) Abbott and Costello “Who’s on First Routine” is just as funny done by Jan Osier and Paul Kelly. Or Could It?” The bobby sock, drive-in movies, slicked-back hair, long skirts, and hamburger stand days were recreated a little different. The Nostalgia Day Assembly was sponsored by the Keywanettes and Key Club. Under the advisorship of Mr. McCollum, the program started down from the ’10’s-’70’s. Next Charlie Chaplin did his famous railroad scene. In Act 2 Lisa McDonald, Patti Parker, Tammy Brown, Brenda Pigg, and Paula Copus, per- formed the Charleston. As well as the Charleston, the well-known Rockettes performed by Cathy Anderson, Robin Ross, Melanie Ables, Becky Martin, Mary Ransom, Janet Beagles, Tonja Huckabee, Tammi Hendon, Pamn Varley, Cindy Coker, and Mary Jane Pollard. To start the 30’s, a Radio Commercial Contest and a Chase Scene. Representing the 40’s, Abbott and Costello (Jan Osier and Paul Kelly) played “The Who’s On First Routine’. To recognize the 50’s, Maurie Hicks played Ed Sullivan, Chris Jenkins played Elvis Presley, Jerome Thorton played Fats Domino, Laurie LeCroy, Kevin Mott, Kevin Gahagan, Doyle White, Paul Cooper, and Bryan Owens starred in the “Six Seasons.” Introducing the 60’s was a dance to “Sweet Love” done by Drill Team Girls. Also, Chubby Checker was played by our great pianist, Jerome Thornton. The big Finale was a Bicentennial Tribute: a poem “Old Glory” read by Jan Osier and Grace Messing ac- companist for “God Bless America.” Everyone had worked hard planning and rehears- ing. Then, early in the show the P.A. system went out, but that didn’t stop the show because “The Show Must Go On!” Activities 19
