Go On Believing truth through laughter, seriousness, and disgust multicolored rainbow A hinted of the promises of things to come. Not an everyday, run-of-the-mill rainbow, but a brightly created arch illustrated the 1980 Har- vest Festival, Go On Believ- ing, an Activities Board Production. On November 25, at 8 p.m., over 1000 students jammed into the Activities Building to view this spec- tacular show. The audience was swept through moments of laughter, moments of serious- ness, and moments of disgust. The show ran smoothly. When one act ended, another was onstage ready to perform. The backstage crew pushed themselves to keep things going. Sophomore Debbie Car- lucci handled the ropes as di- rector while Randy Robert- son, senior, was her right-hand man. Juniors Lon Flippo and Dave Torgeson produced the show with senior Dick Van Huss, executive producer. The backdrop was created by so- phomore Cathie Meeks. Talent and creativity flooded the stage as students expressed themselves through song and skits. Each one pleased different groups of people but the two that received the most applause were junior Les Ray and the X-rays with their version of Rocky, and l'He's So Shy by sophomores Sue Shipman, Kim Norwood, and junior Sandy Turnbull. Controversy sparked over the football-player section of the That's Incredible skit. Members of Krause Second South, in a letter to the Lance, wrote, We feel the latest ridicule, at Harvest Festival, was not only in poor taste las all the football cuts arel, but also unjust since the team had not returned from their game to defend themselves. They were upset about the long- time jokes about the team and coach Denny Duron. Others took it all in fun. Sophomore Phil Walton, commented, I thought it was well-planned, imaginative and well done. Too many people took it tthe football commentsl seriously. That's not its purpose. skits which related to student life: the Library Skit C'Shut up! l, the Evangel College ID.
