Actors, Ora tors And Athletic Professing Christians Have . . Meaningful Experiences Providing many student athletes with a chance to express their Christian beliefs through the common bond of athlet- ics, the Fellowshi of Christian Athletes held meetings throughout the school year discussing various problems, and statin possible solutions to them. Chapter president Rusty Shiier stated, ECA has helped me overcome the obstacles of maintaining both a Christian and athletic life. In addition, FCA conducted a fund-raising activity to benefit a needy family in the Sand S rings area. The theme of PCA is athletes helping themsellves and helping others through Christ. I think our chapter does a reat job in presenting our case, stated junior member Jeff Billington. NFL was another school club that helped students deal with the hectic school life. National Forensic League in- volved students from drama, speech, and debate classes. According to president Judy McWilliams, Some form of speech or debate is important during the high school years, because it helps a person relate to the events surrounding him and assists him in ex ressing his thoughts clearly. ' NFL is not an ordinary club in that membership must be earned through points in various competitions. The points are earned by placing in various oratorical and dramatic contests. Many NPL members were seen at home basketball games and wrestling matches, as the club ran the concession stand to raise money for their activities. NFL members used the money to defer the costs of tournaments and parties. During two to three months out of the school year NFL members spent their weekends com eting in other states and towns, perfecting their skills ol? acting and speakin through competition. National Forensic Lea ue was a dug for winners only. To obtain membership in tiis presti ious club, students had to place first, second, third, or fourtl? in a -- ffl , , number of speech and drama tournaments. 116 Fellowship Of Christian Athletes , i i 1: ..... ,, K 43+ .iii THE SURE Shuler kie. pass around a 5, Hus

Drama Is The Place To Be If You Want To .. Make A Scene To be or not to be in drama was the question for some students trying to decide what subjects to take. But it was not a question for students who enjoyed having fun and acting out emotions and other exciting events. Manv Sandites participated in the play, Oklahoma, most of whom were enrolled in drama. The play was a big success, commented junior Lori Cheney. At least that's what all the cast feels. The drama II students presented two more performances for the Sandite students to view. Mr. Briscoe helps us understand a different view of emotions, stated junior ffharlesfilkington, during tournament he is always full of aug s. The drama team went to tournaments and performed dramatic scenes and humorous scenes. Sometimes we get a little crazy on the tournaments, proclaimed Chris Long, but when the competin starts we settle down. Winning trophies is Sie most fun part of the tourney, stated senior Tony Kizer. Mr. Briscoe served as the students' teacher and coach and he said he liked his work. Drama is a good chance for people who are generally ciiiet to show people how they really feel, or it lets people s ow their inner feelings, said sophomore Tyra Whitmore. 118 Drama INCREDIBLE HULK - Senior Chris Long car- ries senior Naomi Hatsfelt to junior John Emory during a scene rehearsal in drama class. hi T it 5 2
