Cadet Digest Individuals Display Talent With knees knocking, hands shaking, and voices quiv- ering, many students par- ticipated in the Pops con- cert sponsored by the Music Depart- ment on Saturday, October 24. The concert opened with the Stage Band performing their version of Boo- gie Express and Dues Blues. Other musical groups also performed. Several individuals displayed their musical talents by performing solos, du- ets, or trios. Performing in the Pops Concert junior Mark Stebbe plays with the Stage Band. This was one of several performances in October. Senior Melissa Gallant played French Folk Song on her harp. Sayuri Ogikubo, a senior, performed her version of Lieberstraum on the piano. Sophomore Natalie Dowden sang Wouldn ' t It Be Loverly, and Boogie Wobgie Bugle Boy was sung by Shelly Dettmer, sophomore, and Kim Dettmer and Jackie Jarvis, ju- niors. I thought it was generally a very good concert, but four or five perfor- mances were outstanding, commented spectator Adele Morrison. fest Drains Juniors rhe question that goes through the minds of juniors be- fore taking the PSAT is What am I doing here? To get to college, said Mike Kleinschmidt. So I can get the results and see what areas I need to brush up on, commented Jay Linnemeier. Whatever the reason, the PSAT is a test to show the student exactly what sub- jects he or she needs to work on. The PSAT is a prepara- tion for the SAT, which is taken by seniors. Although the PSAT is not required in order to go to college, it helps to show the student what he or she has really learned through school. Many students found the PSAT workshops held in the Learning Center a great help in getting prepared. During the PSAT test taken in the Chapel-Auditorium, many juniors concentrate on the questions in the test. The test took three hours with only one five-minute break. October scene 1 6a

A Time To Reflect After the first four weeks of school, many Cadets were in need of a time to reflect on the school year, their lives as students at Concordia, and the way that God had blessed them. This time of reflection occured during Homecoming Week 1981. To many, Homecoming is a tradition of winning floats, bonfires, foot- ball games and greeting friends from the past. As the week progressed, more people got involved in the Homecoming activities and the spirit of reflection and excitement built to its climax during the activities of the weekend. 1981 was a year of change in Homecoming events, and many new ideas were put into use. We broke a lot of tradition this year. These changes could lead to either success or failure, depending on how many students participated. We had good student participation, and I feel that this Homecoming was very successful, commented Student Council Presi- dent Telly Nakos.
