W rr- Mixed choir gets guartet for highlight Adding a different light to the mu- sic department, Gene Seeburger for the first time formed a girls' quartet from his mixed choir. Carolee Taylor, Nanette Hieb, Pam Barnett and Betsy McWhirt made up the group. Due to the energy problems many of the performances usually given by the choir fell through. Members in- volved in the choir did manage to make it down to the Winters Tower for their annual Christmas Holiday performance in early December. Some of the songs performed by the chorus consisted of LulIaby on Christmas Eve, Christmas Wish, O Magnum Mysterium -and l Won- der as I Wander with Martha Price singing the leading soprano part. Before 700 senior citizens, the mixed choir performed at a concert at Rose E. Miller. The treble choir also performed for the senior citizens at Christ Methodist Church. Special performances given by the girls' quartet added yet another new addition for the choir. They sang for the Credit Union's annual dinner held at the Imperial House South. The morale was better than ever. We kept asking for more and I kept getting it. The year was so short, we should have cancelled the musical, but the enthusiasm for overtime work was remarkable, commented music direc- tor Mr. Seeburger. 82 Chorus -rw ,- W. w---vw 7 -fr H-Q , 1? lt 'T' ua, mimi X r-, ' 1-'.v- sigh-,., ww. -.Hp .- -3 fad: During chorus Tammy Peth, Phil Miller, Kerry Yard, Martha Price, Karen Bergstadt and Leanne Kleinmann sing Carol Ye.

VVKET-FM Senior Tom Elter cuts some electrical wiring which he will use on his project. broadcasts , extra hours WKET-FM, a club which has ex- isted for three years, plans to become an accredited class. Staff members have put in many extra hours before and after school. Students broad- cast from 6-8 a.m. in the morning, and 4-10 p.m. in the evening. West, East and Alter all broadcast on the same station 89.5, FM. Origi- nally planned for West, East and Alter joined in the station planning because of an FCC regulation stating that no radio station could have competition within a ten mile radius. Although anyone can join the club, becoming an actual member requires passing several FCC tests. After pas- sing these tests, full membership and hard work follow. WKET has regular programming of local news, popular rock music and school sports events. WKET also has provided a public service announce- ment time for the community. WKET funds come from the Board of Education. This only covers a small amount of the total needed to keep the station on the air. Other funds come from donations, dues and stu- dent oriented projects, such as car washes, ice hops and bake sales. Barbara Wylie, in her third year as head of the radio station, says, We have an enthusiastic group of dedi- cated students. They are closely knit and work very well together. When one person's problem arises, it be- comes everyone's problem. Electronics Club received a new adviser for 1976-77. Thomas Harden served his first year as adviser. Al- though, small in number with only eight members, the club met regu- larly to work on projects. Members met once a week after school for an hour and a half ses- sions and worked on such projects as repairing televisions, radios and other electronical devices. Most of the equipment the club has worked on has come from students who might have discarded their old possesions, but donated the equip- ment to the club, for their use. No prerequisites for the club exist except an interest in electronics, an interest in learning and a project. -is Senior disc jockey Jeff Neasbe provides news items during WKET-FM's news program. Sf.
