Sounds of Music Last year changes occurred in the choral and band departments. Miss Rita Richmond returned to teach both the junior and senior high choirs, and showgroup. The return of Miss Richmond brought about some alterations in the presentations and looks for both the choirs and showgroup. In junior high choir, Miss Richmond concentrated on getting the fundamentals of music down while they learned new songs for concerts. Without the fundamentals of music, there is no point in trying to perform musicals, stated Miss Richmond, You have to understand the basics of music and sound to perform. The senior high choir practiced and polished the basics learned in junior high. They used these basics to learn the The Madrigal.' 'The Madrigal' was a difficult piece to learn because the singers had different starting times, said Miss Richmond. When they finally got it down, it sounded good and everyone was happy. The senior Selected members of the brass section of the high school band perform The Notional Anthem before a girls varsity bosketball game. high choir also used their knowledge when they gave a public performance at Metamora during the Christmas season. The Show-group, an extension of the senior high choir, performed at the Moravian Church for the Senior Citizen's Banquet. I felt that the Banquet was the best sounding concert showgroup has performed, claimed Miss Richmond. While the choirs polished their skills, the band also expanded on their knowledge, with the addition of a synthesizer to the pep band lineup. We bought the synthesizer to broaden the horizons of the band members and to give them some experience with high tech equipment, explained Mr. Charles Biggs, band director. The synthesizer was used primarily at games, but it also made appearances at the concerts. The changes made in both choirs, showgroup, and band improved the performance and led to better attendance at the concerts, stated Kim Barton. Band and Choir 17

Pam Hancock measures out chocolate chips for the cookies that were baked by the Jetstream staff. The cookies were made for the homecoming breakfast that was allowed by the administration, who overlooked the C G rules. Fancy Four Lights were out, a spotlight was on, and excitement filled the gym. These were some of the changes which made homecoming unique from past years. Four seniors represented the whole school instead of the traditional two girls from each class. Along with this change, the date was moved to February because there were no home games during December. Changes were also made concerning introducing the candidates during the ceremony. A spotlight was used to create an atmosphere of enchantment while a brief summary of each girl's activities was announced. The Jetstream staff wanted to change the homecoming dance, as well. Since it was Valentine's Day, they combined the themes of sweetheart and homecoming. A photo board of a heart and two cupids was drawn and painted by the Jetstream staff. People who attended the dance could get their pictures taken behind it, using their heads in place of the cupid's heads. I thought that Valentine's Day made this years homecoming unique. The yearbook staff put a lot of time and hard work into making homecoming different. The candidates also worked hard with their various fund raisers. Being crowned queen and sharing that moment with the other girls really made all my efforts Pay off, stated Tina Moss. Homecoming 19
