Trocey Swafford singing Ice Castles ' Jerry Duguid — Thespian sponsor Tracey Swafford, a junior at A.H.S., is originally from Gosport, Indiana. Tracey's favorite hobby is singing, but it's becoming more of a career than a hobby. She started out singing into a vacuum cleaner cord at age three, and by age six or seven Tracey was winning second and third places in church talent contests. This year, Tracey received first place at the D.J. Country talent contest. One person who has been inspirational to Tracey is Barbara Mandrell. Tracey said, She (Barbara Mandrell) puts so much feeling and energy in her songs! Tracey's favorite group is Alabama. She says they have a way of satisfying both country and rock fans. Tracey wants to go to Nashville, Tennessee, after she graduates. There she hopes to become a professional country music singer, or try out for Opry Land. Until then, she continues to sing wherever she can and to send tapes of her music to recording companies. Tracey is very thankful to her family for the support they have given her. Student life 13

Dr Skinner replied. I enjoy the opportunities and challenges of the job, interactions with people, and diversity of activities. While students lurk about hallways and classrooms. our school officials are never far away. Dr. Skinner can be found conducting both friendly and business-like conversations in the main office. When he's not in this building, he's usually across the street working behind the scenes with the rest of his staff. Mr. Kelley and Mr. Sirk are usually in their respec-tive offices behind masses of pink slips and paper work. While outside the main office they scan the halls attempting to keep things in order. 14 Student Life
