of the other three horn parts, aside from the first horn part. He also had to be ready to play any of these parts on a moment's notice. Stew traveled to Marion every Monday night to rehearse with the orchestra. He practiced this music, along with the music that the band used, for which he played a mellophone solo. Music has been an important part of Stew’s life since he was in grade school and he plans to continue with his playing and make it a career. Bill Haslem and Laura Sickels, both involved in publications, held part-time jobs at The Elkhart Truth during the 1977-78 school year. Bill, the publications darkroom man- ager, was the Truth’s only student photog- rapher and worked weekends taking and printing pictures. “[ really liked being a Truth photogra- pher,” commented Bill. “It gave me a chance to meet a lot of people. I even met Jim Nabors and Tommy Newsom of the Tonight Show!” Laura, editor-in-chief of Genesis, ran the wire room on Friday evenings. Running the wire room included moni- toring the wire photo machines and help- ing to prepare wire stories for the Satur- day morning papers. Laura had previous experience at The Truth as she won top Go reporter for 1976-77. Laura enjoyed working at The Truth and said, “It was a good experience that I may not have had otherwise, and it will definitely help prepare me for a career in journalism.” Vi Andy Holtz was field commander for the 1977-78 Marching Chargers. He was also the first junior drum major to work solo. When Andy tried out in April of 1977, he was worried that as a junior he would not command the respect of the band the way a senior drum major would. During the summer, Andy attended Moorehead University in Kentucky for a week of drum major schooling, where he learned the fine points of marching and directing. The drum major’s job is to direct the band on the field. No band member is expected to march any better than the drum major. Andy commented, “The hardest part is that the responsibility is all on your shoulders and if you mess up, everyone knows.” Everlyn Hackworth attended classes at Memorial during 1977-78, finishing her junior year in January and starting her senior year second semester. Mrs. Hackworth attended classes dur- ing the day because she worked nights, Homework was done between school and job. “Having an early release made it easy for me to go home and finish my homework before leaving for work.” Mrs. Hackworth decided to return to school because she thinks a high school education is a necessity. Her plans included attending college after gradua- tion Linda Hackworth, her daughter, along with many other students, thought it was “neat” that Mrs. Hackworth returned to school. Mrs. Hackworth said, “Students were kind and helpful even before they found out my age.” Jorma Latva, Rainer Wolfersdorf, Pia Osterberg, and Miyuki Tanaka spent the year at Memorial as exchange students Jorma and Pia came from Finland, Rainer from Germany and Miyuki from Japan. Each student was here to learn the Ameri- can way of life. Youth for Understanding was the pro- gram that sponsored Pia, Jorma, and Miyuki. Rainer was sponsored by Interna- tional Christian Youth. All four students lived with other Mem- orial students. Jorma lived with Manley Robinson; Pia with Chris Vetter; Rainer with Dennis Huston, and Miyuki with Mary Luke. Miyuki was the second for- eign exchange student to live with Mary Luke's family All four students agreed that the prices in the U.S. were cheaper than those in their own countries. Rainer noted that jeans in Germany run about $40 a pair compared to about $20 a pair here. Although homesickness was a big prob- lem, all four students were happy with their American families and the U.S.
