We had a brick smashin', foot stompin' good -time Great entertainment was provided by the Air Force Country Band and two power lifters. The Air Force Country Band from McCord Air Force Base in Tacoma, Washington, was a real hit and a crowd pleaser. The students were well pleased with the performance. They were clapping their hands, stomping their feet, and some even got out on the floor and danced. Two of them were Sonya Hartley and science teacher Bob Schultz. They made a cute couple, said Amy Wells. Leah Wilson commented, I loved them, they were good. The lead singer looked like my brother-in-law, replies April Fettingill. They were so cute. Some of the songs the students enjoyed were, Elvira, Hard To Be Humble, The Closer You Get, Roll On, and Mountain Music. The power lifting assembly was very exciting with bricks smashing and bar bending. One lifter smashed some bricks with his head, talk about a headache. At one point one of the lifters took a hot water bottle and blew it up larger than most ballons can get. He blew it up so far that it popped the seams. The other lifter took a small steel rod and held up two students. Marcia Judd and Laurie Hardman, so their feet were off the ground. This was to test his strenth and also the bar's strength. Then he took the Par, wrapped a towel around the middle, and then ne put the bar in his mouth and bent the bar down so it crossed at both ends. After this feat of strength he piled up aDout ten blocks of cement, put a towel on the tenth block, and smashed all ten with his hand. The other lifter took a directory phone book and ripped it in half. The last feat of strength involved one lifter on a bed of nails with two blocks of cement on his chest with a board over his face for protection against the fractureo cement pieces. The other lifter stood over him and smashed the bricks with a sledge hammer. Not all of the assembly was on power lifting. It dealt with believing in yourself and your religion and not to let anything or anybody tempt you into doing what you think and know isn't right. Both assemblies were certainly enjoyed. These pages sponsored by: Kae Abbey The Blohm Family The Air Force Country Band provided great entertainment such as this solo. Blowing up a hot water bottle was part of the power lifting assembly. -4 Assemblies
