A Turnabout that almost didn’t come Events occured in the Turnabout season that marked the calendar of many. The night was first scheduled for January 13 and gradually moved its way up to February 7 because of con- flicts with basketball and debate activi- ties. The King and his court were an- nounced Saturday January 31 at a girls' basketball game. The King was John Logan and his court Bill Corbin, John Timmons, Pete Schlicksup, Pat Pechous, and Joe O'Brien. February 7 finally arrived with the theme being We Love A Reigning Knight. Senior Carol Kroy recalled dinner at Yen Ching's with her date Chris O'Neil, saying Just as we were finishing dinner Chris bit a little too hard on his fortune cookie and broke his tooth. He had just had it fixed the day before. Rachael Crossen '87 knew it would be a long night when she noticed her corsage pinned on upside down. The band which performed in the cafe was Jagged Edge. There were nu- merous comments about the heavy metal group. Missi Mueller stated The lead singer's furry boots were ap- propriate for the Artie climate of As- sumption. Tom Martin said, It was fun to watch the band try to play mu- sic, the heavy metal slow songs were great. The fun didn't stop after the dance was over. Seniors Francis and Claire Hittner had so much fun, they had to take a Happy Cab home without their dates, because their ride left without them. Junior Jenny Miller found it diffi- cult to stay awake because her date, John Gluba found her asleep. Turnabout Candidates: Bill Corbin, John Timmons, Kurt Paulson, Pete Schlick- -- sup, Pat Pechous, John Logan, John Resnick, Corey Beckor, Joe O'Brien, Jim Kopatich. turnabout CO

 ... or how organizations add- ed that extra touch to that nor- mal grind to make a year that was definitely out of the ordi- nary. Say, did you catch the production of Annie that the drama department put on in the Spring? ''Are you kidding? My mom made me watch the movie when I was seven years old. I don't need that kid's stuff. Boy, did you miss out. We're talkin' Broadway comes to W. Central Park! I'll bet you didn't know about all the other organizations that were around either. Well, I saw the Knight Kompany dancers at one of the basketball games, they're pretty hard to forget, and I think I heard about a student council or some- thing. Let me enlighten you a bit. Organizations were the spice of life in the school year. Did you know that the French and German clubs sent students to those respective countries over the summer? Debate and mock trial were there for those who enjoyed expand- ing the mind. Musically inclined? The chorus, jazz band and concert band gave performances that should have been held in Carnegie Hall. Am I getting through? Yeah, I'm impressed! I guess I just missed the boat on all this organization action. These groups were really cool, just outstanding! 22
