Rings of circus talent show forth; The ingenuity of youth was re¬ flected in the presentation of “Sights and Sounds—Edition ’73.” The con¬ cert, made possible by the combined efforts of Serenaders and Stage Or¬ chestra, included a medley of songs performed by the groups while on tour earlier in the month. “Who Can I Turn To?” and “Scarborough Fair” were among the selections played. Accompanied by the Stage Orches¬ tra, the Serenaders performed “Days of Wine and Roses” and “Moonlight Serenade.” “Three Ring Circus,” the theme of the Language Clubs’ Talent Show, explicitly described the entertaining program. Students performed a vari¬ ety of acts ranging from the most se¬ rious soap opera to the more com¬ ical skits during the program. The proceeds from the Talent Show went towards the Indiana Univer¬ sity Honors Program Scholarship Fund. Carefully following his score, Mr. Matusiak directs the orchestra with precision. Marco Kraft, Tom Geffert, Rick Zehner, Joe Gaylor, and Jack Atwood don shaving attire in order to advertise Gillette razor blades at the Talent Show.

take delight in Winter Formal A Christmas-time setting of candles, red stockings, candy canes, blinking lights, Christmas trees, and a roman¬ tic atmosphere added to the excite¬ ment of the evening. Sponsored by the Student Council for the first time, the Winter Formal gave female as well as male students the oppor¬ tunity to ask their special someone to the semi-formal event. One hun¬ dred nine couples danced to the mu¬ sic of “Renaissance” at the Whiting Knights of Columbus Hall. Another activity sponsored by the Student Council was the Intramural Sports Program. This activity gave several students who were not able to participate in either varsity or B- Squad competition throughout the school year a chance to play various sports. Football, tennis, basketball, and volleyball intramurals gave many students the chance to com¬ pete against their classmates and friends by the official rules. With the desire to help his homeroom win, Nick Stepnoski exerts his efforts in returning the volleyball. As the basketball flies loose in the air. students and faculty wait to claim the ball.
