Francis Toews, marching and stage band director. There are 21 people in Stage Band. They spend six to eight weeks preparing for a concert. We play jazz, rock and blues. The blues can either be jazz or rock, added Toews. Stage Band was a guest band at the Bethel Fall Jazz Concert. This was a first for the Stage Band. Some select members from the Stage Band part- icipated in the AVL Honor Stage Band. Newton hosted this event on March 9. The lVlarching Band is striving for a slow, steady improvement, said Toews. The Marching Band, along with 69 other bands from Kansas and Missouri, performed during the halftime-in the KU-Louisville football game. They also marched in a parade in downtown Lawrence. The 95 band members spend almost two weeks 75 7 2 putting together a halftime show, with three prac- tices out on the football field at Athletic Stadium. The lVlarching Band is continuing to improve the quality of the band, commented Toews. Kelly Mathews 9 2 Z 3 3 m 5' 0 E Ui I' I' Kelly Mathews . jill R zen, junior. 3.

arming their credit You've gotta get their attention before you can slip in some subject matter, said Mr. Chuck Engel. He was speaking of his nutty actions during class lectures. Engel taught five of eleven classes: Chemistry l, Chemistry ll, Applied Chemistry, and Physics I and ll. Chemistry dealt with structure of materials and the changes they undergo. Chemistry II was for the student who had an interest in further lab study of chemistry. Physics I dealt with mechanics, properties of heat, matter and sound. Physics ll dealt with the study of light, elec- tricity, magnetism, electronics and atomic physics. Applied Chemistry was like Chemistry I with the emphasis more on the practical applications of chemistry. Biology was taught by Mrs. Cindy Harms, Miss Peggy Thomas and Mr. Bud Akin. This course dealt with plants and animals in their relation to the welfare of humans and to each other. The course studying the generalities of the physical sciences such as chemistry and physics was Physical Science, taught by Miss Thomas and Ms. Marty Kaufman. Units covered included structure and reactions of matter, color and energy. Material such as reproduction, aging, death, physiology of the brain, sleep, dreams, transplants and implants was studied in life and death science taught by Mrs. Harms. Two courses taught by Mr. Bud Akin and Ms. Kaufman were Zoology and Physiology. Animal structure, growth and classification was covered in Zoology. At least half of class time was spent dissecting. Animals dissected were a cat, pigeon and shark. Various functions of the body such as digestion, metabolism and nutrition were studied in physiology. Aeronautics, taught by Ms. Kaufman, introduced subject matter such as aerodynamics, meteorology, navigation and federal aviation rules. Only a small handful of students took science courses. Mr. Engel commented that this was probably due to the lack of a serious approach to high school in general. Students didn't want to work too hard and they didn't want bad grades, according to Engel.
