, f-A a- Some To Know Springtime brings its fever And students start to drag. You get a small vacation, And a tan that makes you brag. You buckle down and study hard, And with your teacher's help, You pass your finals and get good grades. It makes you want to yelp! The Seniors have their year of fun And are all but fully grown, When they leave my portals for good, And face a world unknown. Like an everlasting cycle, Comes that inevitable question. Where will I go now? And, - 'Will it be the right direction? To all you Lafayette Generals, S 3.1 svi- This I have to tell. get pl., 3 p school and if ' s 1118, . and USB.

.1:2 - Band camp does not just consist of marching. It also consists of learning and memorizing music in sectionals and full band, while the flags and rifles practice their routines. Near the end of the week, the band puts the marching and the music together. The pride and enthusiasm begins to show more at this point than any other time during the entire week. Mr. Moore adopted a Drum Corps style of show in 1976 which had be- come very popular throughout this area. Because of its complexity, the band learned only about three-fourths of it. Mr. Moore said that this was not a problem, and that he was pleased with their accomplishment. Band letters were distributed at the end of the week to worthy persons. To qualify, one must attend two years of camp and a marching season. This year Brent Yan- dell received special appreciation for his help in instructing a trombone class last spring due to the special need for trombones for the show. Band members were so eager, that they even paid hard-earned money to go to camp. After the initial pain was gone, and it was announced in the university's huge stadium that the LAFAYETTE BAND had just won another contest, the price they had paid seemed small in comparison. Camp was over . . . but only until next year. El fn, 5 f Q ,jr 4, ff MV, Z ff f 5 syn? I 1 iii, , r 1 we 'N g S5 'e its .... X 3 91 . ffl ll kk xii Hs 'sig' x:lil1f K ' ls , L. Wh i l st? .
