PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABouT A ne direction A new direction for an old Chorale, Mrs. Naida laggard, the new choir director, said at the begin- ning ofthe school year. Mrs. jaggard brought with her a new accom- panist, Mrs. Bevely Caldwell. This season of change for the choir did not seem to effect them at all. On November 11, the choir held their annual Fall Concert at the First United Methodist Church. The concert was a great success because of all the hard work that we put into it, Gena Bedwell, senior, said after the con- cert. They performed some of the music per- formed by the Texas All- State choir, including Witness and Psalm 96. The choir continued their successful year by having 70 students receive a division one rating on a class one solo at Solo and Ensemble contest held at Del Mar College. Following Solo and Ensemble, the choir set their sights on the Christmas concert. At first I was not sure if we could pull it off, but as always we did and that made me feel better, Todd Walters, senior, said. The Christmas Concert was held in the High School auditorium December 19. As the choir members learned to adjust to their new directors, the new directors also learned to adjust to their new choir members. Working in the Calallen Choral Depart- ment this year has been a challenge for me. Mrs. lag- gard is an outstanding musician and director. l feel very fortunate to be able to work under her leadership and supervi- sion. The high school students are a super bunch of people who are hard working musicians. I'm looking fonrvard to the future in the Calallen Choral Dept. Bevely Caldwell said. Mrs. laggard said, Be- ing in charge of a music department of this size and calibre has been a real challenge and ultimately a rewarding experience for me. The transition has been successful this year because of the students and faculty in the system. They are a very special group of people who have made me feel very welcome and a part of their lives.

PEDPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT we Talent of Calall They are performing a play that deals with very mature subject matter, and they do a very mature job of performing it, which makes me proud of them, said director Tina Brooks as the Drama Department presented The Shadow Box by Michael Cristofer as their spring production. This one hour play started out as three acts, but was cut for the UIL One Act Play contest. It advanced from zone to district and was chosen as alternate to advance to area. Several members of the cast also received awards for their performances, such as at zone Gwynetta Faucett and Tammy Mur- ray each received M V it 41- xs'6s.'v' - :mli :Q + hi., . ' tt . .

Craig Adams was well rewarded also, with a Best Actor award. When they performed at district jeff Britt, Tammy Murray and janel Gibson each received a Honorable Mention All-Star Cast, as well as Mistre johnson who brought home an All-Star Cast award. The play was set in three cottages on the grounds of a hospital for terminally ill cancer patients. The play tells about coming to terms with the characters future deaths as once fac- ed with the reality of dy- ing, they look at their values and try to live their lives to the fullest. I think The Shadow Box was an exceptionally well done play, because we had a group of people who were ready and willing to work harmoniously together. This was topped off with a great director, said cast member Gwynetta Faucett. This was the first time the students had done a realistic drama. The earlier fall production was a comedy entitled Cheaper by the Dozen by Frank and Earnestine Gilbreth, which was a full length play and not per- formed for competition. A- --f- Q, -ff--ff-- ....
