Name Your Tune Eight-track tapes, cassettes, for¬ ty-fives, or albums . . . which do you prefer? DC 101, WPGC, WKYS, or OK 100 ... which radio station do you listen to most often? Inter¬ views and questionnaires in music determined individual perferences. Because they are easy to carry around, cassettes won, and be¬ cause they play the music most students want to hear, radio stations DC 101, WPGC, WKYS, and OK 100 rated high. Rock-southern, slow, acid, hard, or soft — was the most popular type of music with soul in second place. Country, disco, jazz, and blue grass were next in line. Who were the favor¬ ite recording artists? From rock AC DC, Lynyrd Sky- nyrd, Led Zepplin, and REO Speedwagon lead the way. Rick james, Tina Marie, The Sugar Hill Gang, The Commodores, and Cameo represented soul. The Oak Ridge Boys depicted the country preference. “I like any kind of music as long as it has a good sound,” commented Renee Ford. On the other hand, Barry Hockett prefers rock by Blackfoot. Rosalynn Taylor said, “Soul captures my attention, because a special message is conveyed. Frankie Troilo likes the mellow sound of slow rock and Christopher Cross while Maxine White prefers Rick James. “I like DC 101, because they play Skynyrd,” said Keith Mckenzie. Because everyone is not alike, various styles of music have emerged. As a result, variety has been the key factor in musical popularity.

SPORTS SP-1R-1T, Got the spirit? Let’s hear it! The spirit of the players as well as the fans always improves the outcome of the game. Support from citizens and students continued to increase throughout the ’81-’82 season. The need for new equipment sent players from door to door like salesmen peddling their wares. The girls’ basketball team sold notecards and dispensed M 8v Ms by the case while the football player salesmen sold hats. Team members who sold their products showed their enthusiasm, willingly going from door to door after a hard practice, just to meet their goal. Exhibiting their spirit were the members of the girls’ field hockey team with their “kick line” at the homecoming pep rally and during their games. Encouragement and enthusiasm were demonstrated by the cross country team as they supported the various activities of the other athletic teams. All teams demonstrated their “pep”, each in its own unique way. Showing spirit and Devil pride in their accomplishments, they piled up win after win. I’ v 4 ' ..¥4 ¥ Alt® ■ ■ ■ mm m BP 12 Sports
