Hard Travelers Entertain Students The Hard Travelers, a group of three LCC students. entertained young peo- ple from all over the U.S. at various youth rallies, banquets, and high school assemblies. They began the year by entertaining the LCC student body at a mixer the first week of school. Soon afterwards, the musicians performed at the annual South Plains Fair. This singing group, under the direc- tion of the LCC Admissions Office, traveled over 30,000 miles in the spring. Their purpose was not only to entertain their audience, but also to recruit interested high school students to come to LCC. Singing a variety of hits from Rock to Country-Western, the Hard Travel- ers also included a special rendition of the fifties and sixties in their act. Members of the group included Robert Spurlin from Roswell, New Mexico: Bob Stevens from Memphis, Tennes- see, and Ken Young from Devine, Texas. Performing at the South Plains Fair, Robert, Ken, and Bob present their version of an o1die, but goodie. 7 FT Decked out in their coordinated denim ward- Stevens, and Robert Spurlin attempt to practice robes, Hard Travelers members Ken Young, Bob around an LCC pool table. 22 - PLOT

It served its own students by involving them in an active organization, it served the school by being a powerful student- recruiting agency, and it served vari- ous churches by bringing them inspira- tional concerts. This program of serv- ice took the choir five to six thousand miles and through forty to fifty con- certs. A choral retreat along with Meister- singers andiilhorale began the year. Soon the traveling began. This included a fall tour to Denver which was highlighted by a walk through the Garden of the Gods, a trip to the Christian College Choral Festival under the direction of William Daw- son, author of Balm of Gilead, and another tour which took the choir to San Francisco. Directing the chorus was Dr. B. Wayne Hinds. Stan Morgan led the group as president. A CAPPELLA 21
