Taking a break from the hard practicing. Becy Conover and Matt Behrens really play it up'. THE BEAT LIVES ON! Musical talent involved many this year. One could have been involved in any of four different instrumental groups. The Sym- phonic Winds and Percussion was one group. The better musicians were in this class as each student had to audition and be accepted. They performed in malls and went to Arizona. A second music group was the Concert Band. These mu- sicians took the class and expand- ed their musical talents. A third class was the Orchestra. The Or- chestra consisted mainly of the string instruments. They per- formed in the musical plays and in concerts. Finally, one could have enjoyed taking part in the volun- tary Jazz Band. These enthusias- Straining on the last note. Becky Con- over.

BUSY BODIES AND BELONGERS DECA Alta's chapter of the Distribu- tive Education Clubs of America has always been an excellent one. This year, however, with a new advisor and some new district rules; the club had more limited successes. DECA students com- peted at state competitions. We need to give Kim Miller a lot of credit for the fashion show.” said DECA Member Marci Moe. ALTA SALUTES Alta Salutes was a new commit tee formed this year by the SBO’s. Its purpose was to “salute or rec- ognize those students and organi- zations which deserved recogni- tion but often times didn't receive it. With a large student body it was a needed step honoring the tre- mendous talents within Alta’s walls. FLAG GIRLS For three years Ken Gondor has been the advisor of the flag girls who have performed at halftime at football and basketball games. At the (J.S.A. camp the Alta flag girls earned a superior trophy, a spirit stick, a unity award and a first place. Try-outs were held in Febru- ary in the usual frigid weather and included dance, marching and flag routines. Why do Alta Salute committee members have black finger- tips?
