Defiantly awaiting the approach of El Toro, Doug Wassell cues the class by gracefully maneuvering his cape. Feeling of awe prevails as judges score events The mention of Field Day at Seaholm brings to mind huge banners, creative costumes, marchers in uniform blocks, and impressive cheers performed in .unison. The class events leave a lasting effect on everyone, since so much time and manpower go into preparation. As soon as a theme is decided upon, designs are drawn up for costumes and banners. Now begins the real work - whether it be measuring, cutting, painting, sewing, or dying. Countless hours are spent on these detailed projects. Classes aim for that great day when everything must be at the peak of perfection. A nucleus of workers in each class busily compose the cheers that all must learn by heart. Drilling and more drilling will take place until those in charge are satisfied with the effect. While cheers weigh most heavily point-wise, no one can dare to neglect marching practice. Every row must be straight, every marcher in step. This enormous task necessitates numerous, small drills as well as all-class meetings. The results of the judging of this year's class events turned the tables completely. Its various receptions will be long remembered.
