Let’s get fired up! Smoke those notes! by p mays and m green With two minutes left on the clock in the first haif the band and colorguard vacate the bleachers to the center line on the opposite side of the field. They take the remaining forty seconds to get themselves together and to prepare their music and remember their routines. The clock runs out, they preceed onto the football field to take the place of the teams and entertain the fans by strutting their stuff. The band and colorguard members prac¬ ticed four days a week to be prepared for the Friday night home games. But not frequently did the band get to perform at away games. Although, they did travel with the team to Randolph Henry and Park View. Definitely a chance to see other bands play and to help our teams win by playing familiar tunes. On a more typical routine the Band and Colorguard took part in three parades; The Roanoke Rapids Christmas Parade, The An¬ nual Harvest Festival Parade in South Hill, and The Lawrenceville Christmas Parade in which they placed first Thanks to the great music and tremen¬ dous visual effects displayed by the Col¬ orguard and Majorettes, the Marching Band was a success.

Not a tire, but a minute Everyone Needs A Spare! e green Everyone needs a spare. No, not a spare tire, a spare minute. There are only 4 times during a normal school day that a student has spare time — before classes in the morning, at break, at lunch and after school. During these brief, yet hectic minutes, students try to do it all. They do everything from finishing a book report to slamdunk- ing. Some consciencious students rely on spare time to ask teacher questions or do research in the library. Others, who are more interested in improving their social lives instead of their grades, discuss the “latests.” There are still others who enjoy shooting ball in the gym or smoking at the shelter. Although spare time is something that students don’t seem to have much of, what time they do have, is used wisely. For instance, at break, standing in line at the snack machine for 5 minutes and then the drink machine for 5 more min¬ utes, only to hear the bell for 2nd period ring, and realize you don’t have time to eat or drink what you have waited so long for. You grudgingly go to class with the re¬ alization of just having wasted another spare minute. photo by c wells cap by staff Throw Down!
