Who needs physique When you’ve got physics A major area in physics is Magne tism. This principal is exhibited in the growth of the club. Since its be ginning, the physics students have puzzled over questions proposed to them by Mr. Sellers, their sponsor. Because of the magnetic growth in the field of physics, there is an unlim- ited amount of questions and puzzles to be solved. It was discovered that even though they might not be able to solve all of the questions the world may offer, their club meetings pro¬ vide a place to sit and discuss what is important to everyone interested in physics. Through their discussions, a sense of unity is created. Senior club member Amanda Mayo commented, ‘ lf you are taking physics, you get involved in physics and you may un- derstand it or you may not, but you are stili in the class. Even if you only understand it for the moment, that moment is yours.” Officers Larry Marino (VicePresident). Khanh Truong (Secretary). Michael Jones (Sargeant At Arms), Eric Chen (President), Michael Kime (Treasurer), and spon sor Mr. Otto Sellers lead their fellow club members in discovering the world of physics outside the class room environment.

AII State Orchestra members were chosen from a group of 153 students from all over Louisiana. while only 83 students made it. Four of the chosen members were from Shreveport. Out of those four students, three of the chosen members were from Caddo Mag- net High. During AII State tryouts, all of the contestants stayed in Baton Rouge and a huge concert was performed on the final day. Youth Symphony is held on Saturdays for students from all over the Ark-La-Tex who often had the opportunity to work with the Shreveport Symphony. Earlier this year, the Youth Symphony went to Natchitoches to per form in a concert for younger children. The Quarter was a group of four orchestra students who represented their schools at dif¬ ferent competitions. These students were se lected by their school s orchestra members. and then they had to try out in order to be a member of the Quartet. The Quartet was di rected by Leah Gentry, and its members from Magnet included Jennifer McCune. Dana Ste- venson, Leah Gentry, who temporarily filled in for cello, the second violinist was undecided. All of the orchestra students participated in solo ensembles, where they were rated. Inci- dentally. Orchestra II ranked straight ones (su- periors) at District Festival last year.

Corning Attractions get On with the show “AII the worlcTs a stage ...” and no one knows this better than the Corning Attractions. Led by Ms. Denise McGuf- fee, the drama club members have worked diligently to become the best actors and actresses they can possibly be. Ms. McGuffee has instilled in the minds of the students she coached that she does not believe in stopping midway through anything. Her motto is “The show must go on!” Although it’s fun putting together a production, it is also tedious work. Many hours went into preparing sets, practicing lines, and promoting the pro¬ duction of Our Hearts Were Young and Gay. These hours of work payed off with a standing ovation. That was a great honor, but as soon as the play ended another was in the making. Each year the thespians have the chance to further their dramatic tech- niques at the Thespians Convention. At the 1985 convention in New Orleans, Magnet participants leamed everything from the art of acting to the extreme of hat making. Magnet also received an¬ other standing ovation for Lisa Smith and Jessica Birdsell s outstanding per formance. Realizing that the world is their stage with entrances and exits, the Corning Attractions opened the year with a bang and plan to go out in style. (Column one) (Jrsula Dossett.
