tedious, piecing together sections of raw tape. It is like putting together a big jigsaw puzzle. He sometimes works up to the 10 o ' clock deadline in editing the tape, inserting his voice, piecing voices together, adding music, and sound effects before com- pleting the finished product. He composed these tapes in a six- by-six foot room. In each of the six editing rooms are two VCR machines, two color monitors and a console to control both. Hatteberg has his own portable computer to type his script for recording. To produce the sound he works in a rather small, sound-proof room, to get the voice effect that his feature is know for. Sometimes it is hard to fit it all in, in only three minutes. To give it the whole effect, I try to touch on all of the topics, Hatteberg said. Until 1979 I worked with film and in late 79 we converted to videotape. In my work we do a lot of traveling, said Hatteberg. In 1980 we traveled to the Democratic National Convention in New York. Other places he has traveled are Japan, China, Mexico, and New Zealand. Hatteberg, a Winfield High School graduate grew up in Winfield where his mother still resides. Being in the public eye, he is easily recognized and people notice his face. I get a lot of double takes. KAKE-TV presents a noon, 5, 6, and 10 o ' clock broadcast. In photojournalsim, shooting is the fun part, editing is tedious, said Hat- teberg. Working with people makes the whole job worth it. Hatteberg got his start in jour- nalism through the Winfield High School newspaper and yearbook staff. While serving as photo editor of the student publications he had some pictures published by the Winfield Courier and that was enough to let him know what his life ' s work was to be.

T arry Hatteberg m Z— — 5- local television personality is man of action images stick. I try to bring out people ' s real personality. by Bob Dodson of NBC News said, To touch people - you ' ve got to be Brian Howell and Chuck Sigler people. Larry Hatteberg believes this too. He began at KAKE in 1963. He told ■ notojournalist. What does that mean? Most people would think that it is a reporter who can write less and use more pictures. For Larry Hat- teberg this means he doesn ' t write his words, he speaks them, and better yet, shows them. Written work can be put in 1 Vi columns of the New York Times, but pictures cannot, Hatteberg said. Pictures plant seeds in peoples ' min- ds, said Larry Hatteberg, associate news director for Channel 10, KAKE- TV in Wichita. It ' s a challenging art, he said. Photographers are plenty. Reporters are plenty. What we need are story tellers. Everyone has a story to tell. Not just the people with the titles. Hatteberg shows this each week on his feature, ' Hatteberg ' s People. He tells a story about the common man. He uses pictures to create a feeling, be it pride, or sadness. You touch people with words, pic- tures, he said. But Hatteberg never forgets the human element. Let the people tell the story. They can tell it with much more eloquen- ce, Hatteberg said. By presenting a picture that is sometimes humorous, sometimes touching, maybe even both, but always touches a nerve, Hatteberg believes, Statistics wash over - MAN OF THE PEOPLE-Toating the tool of his trade, Larry Hatteberg and his mini-cam are a familiar site to many people in Kansas who have been featured on Hatteberg ' s People. Hatteberg was on campus during Focus on Cowley Week . them he ' d work for nothing just to get experience. He was hired and for over 21 years has worked his way up the ladder of success. Hatteberg lives in Wichita with his wife and two daughtecs. He is currently involved with a Tuesday night, three-minute feature, Hatteberg ' s People on the 10 o ' clock edition of the KAKE news broadcast every week. In 1976, he began the three-minute series, and he spends anywhere from 10-12 hours preparing. Editing is the most

1J 8 c ' Little Mary Sunshine by- Brian Howell ■ s the lights dim and the crowd grows quiet, the cast of Little Mary Sunshine ' finds that the time backstage is a lonesome wait before entering the glittering limelight of a melodramatic world. The moments before the play begins are filled with last chances to tune up vocal chords and rehearse lines that seemingly just can ' t be remembered. Final make-up retouches make face and body highlights near perfect. In spite of the nervous activity there is also a sense of oneness throughout the cast. They were, for the run of the play at least, a family. It was a good group of students to work with, Sharon Yarbrough, direc- tor said. They took a tremendous amount of work off my shoulders. If they heard me say something needed to be done, they used their own initiative and just did it. Wayne Greenlee cleaned up the backstage area before we opened and David Stanley brought his truck in and hauled off a lot of trash from the back. Debbie Brown took all the cast to the costume place in Oxford. ..They worked together to help each other and that made them the best cast and crew I ' ve ever worked with. At times the actors would be out in the hall or in a dressing room when their cue came near and it was the job of David Stanley, stage manager, to make certain all the actors were on stage at the right time and no cues were missed. My job was mostly to make sure SUNSHINE GIRL. Little Mary Sunshine (Shari Stantbarger) and Captain Big Jim Warrington(Wayne Greenlee) are reunited af- everything went well and that there were no snags in the rehearsal, Stanley said. It ' s really time con- suming when you practice from 6-9 p.m. on the stage and from 9 p.m. to whenever on music for the produc- tion. Keeping the atmosphere backstage relatively sane was also the job of Leigh Austin, Sarah Phillips, Bettina Heinz, Teresa Theilen and Sheila Guinn. I try to calm everyone ' s nerves and am just an all-around do-gooder on the props and stage equipment, Austin said. I also help with make-up and just have a lot of fun with it. Some of the cast required in- dividual help during the play and it was the stage crew who was able to provide this. I help Nancy (Debbie Brown) Twinkle change clothes four times in each performance, Guinn said. It ' s a lot of fun to be a part of a play. Although on stage the actors may have appeared the picture of con- fer her safe return from being captured by Yellow Feather (Donald Read II).

The audience is different tonight, said Denah Spongier between scenes. They ' re laughing at different spots. Did I sound OK? Was I too low? asked Wayne Greenlee. Was I too close when I stepped up to you? John Dalton wanted to know. The tension let up during in- termission when the lights went on and Yarbrough had the normal pep talk with the cast. ...and work on concentrating on your lines, she cautioned as the in- termission came to a close. The lead in the melodrama was played by freshman Shari Stan- sbarger, a sweet innocent who was losing her Colorado Inn to the govern- ment because of a mortgage. She is rescued by Big Jim (Wayne Greenlee) Continued
