ovmmg 'ln an if 6 For those who were wise enough to turn on their television sets during homeroom every morning, sound advice and information were readily avail- able. More entertaining perhaps, than even Donahue , the morning an- nouncements, courtesy of the East Broadcasting System crew lifted away the homeroom blahs. The school com- munity was informed of the newest foods CHuskie Burgers, anyone?J and phenomina, such as the flushing of the Green Wave. Spirit and pride stirred in every student who witnessed the birth of the new Eagle. Black History Month in February also brought add- ed insight to the news. The morning announcements were a vital part of planning one's daily agenda. Each member of the EBS team had his responsibilities. Behind the scenes camera and audio work was handled by Tom Burleson and Ion Williams. Michelle White and Cristie Caronis were to be commended on the fine jobs they did, such as on judging ICC's Paint a can contest . Sports Corner 's success on letting students like Ross Saldarini know when the girl's Varsi- ty played stemmed form the talents of Tamara Iarret and Kirk Hardee. Much credit was owed these Eagles for making Channel 7 such an organized station. Applause also went for the folks in front of the camera. The familiar faces of such celebrities as Heidi Sloan, Greg Nivens, Ricky Reid, and Ray- mond Tom often thrilled the student body On Senior Days, the reigning class was allotted an extra five minutes of break by Iohn Shipway or Buff Marcus. Mark Mueller, Misty What- 24 Morning News ley, and Matt Hughett also occasional- ly privileged their audience with their natural charm and wit. Debbie Wal- drop and Glen Saperstein interpreted for the hearing impaired. Everyone in Student Congress had the chance to read announcements, depnding on their jobs, explained Greg Nivens. Morning news informed teams, clubs, students, and faculty of meet- ings, special events, practices, and un- expected changes.
