N Q.. :I ul I , nfl. I .I ' . V' f X Q MII' Rich's greatest interest now is in the field of music. For nine years he has played classical piano and has played bass guitar for six years His piano train- ing has led him to compose original mu- sic. Rich has been in a number of differ- ent bands over the past four years This summer he toured several cities with one band. Recently, Rich has become inter- ested in electronic music and so bought a synthesizer. Rich says that because he has found so much enjoyment in each field of music, his interests have moved into many different musical fields. Richard hopes to someday combine the teaching of music with studio and band playing. lohn Whittier I have been interested in cars for a long time novv. I received my first VW when I was fourteen and have had more than a dozen since then. The majority were old and worn outg many of them had no engine, so their ovvners gave them to me. Since they were too far gone to fix, I took them apart. By doing this I learned how they were put together and vvhy they vvere built the vvay they vvere. In the end I came to appreciate the engineering that goes into designing a car. Presently I am driving a '58 bug, although it is nothing to look at, I've done a lot of work on the mechanical parts that you don't see. I have also learned a lot by doing this. I plan to study mechani- cal engineering and after that I will probably pursue a career in the automotive field.

lf 145. Q tml' 48'-1. at I Mark l. Pixley The world around us is in troubled times. The institutions of government and business are quickly becoming obsolete and useless. These institutions must be changed so they can face the future. Change however, does not come easily. Only through the involvement of people in politics can needed reforms be made. I have tried to do my part by working in several political campaigns including: 1972: George McGovern for President I974g Ruth Rowley for Selectwoman Gerry Studds for Congressman 1975: Constance Pye for School Committee I have also participated in the West Virginia Democratic Youth Conference at Charleston, West Virginia in May T975 and the Northeast Democratic Conference at Springfield, Mas- sachusetts in September 1975. Presently I am working for Mo Udall for President. I have enjoyed what I have done and gained a lot from it. l would like to close by reminding you that the government is for the people and by the people.
