Lack Of Participation In trouble to be troubled. Is to have your trouble doubled as Daniel Defoe states. But luckily for Catharsis, editors Jean McElhaney and Dave Place were not troubled. Catharsis, in its fifth year, had a very difficult time, and consequently, Jean and Dave had to work nights and free hours to publish the spring issue. The first problem came when Catharsis switched printers. Though better results were achieved, the different process caused some headaches. Also, publishing prices rose, causing the issue price to increase from 75 t to $1. The second problem, and perhaps the largest, was the job of maintaining the same level of quality. Catharsis members began the year by visiting freshman classes in order to increase the knowledge about Catharsis and hopefully the participation to Catharsis. Unfortunately, Jean and Dave didn't find many articles in the mailbox in Room 34. In order to use only the select pieces of poetry and artwork, members decided to have only one issue. This issue came out in late May. Joining Mr. Prueher as co-advisor was Mrs. Clenndenning. She advised, critiqued, and also helped type. Advisor Mr. Prueher is departing after this year to work at a magazine publishing firm. For the future members of Catharsis, he added these words: We are confident that Catharsis as a fine quality literary arts magazine has been a valid reputation upheld by the work this year. Only with continued financial and creative support can this tradition continue. Turning a piece of canvas into a city and a town meeting hall would seem next to impossible to the average student. But this was the job of Art Club as they made the sets for the musical The Music Man. These sets were exceptional due to the use of interlocking boards. These boards were painted like doors on one side and like rocks on the other. Again, Art Club members constructed displays on which they hung the paintings during the open arts show held on May 4. Mr. Pawlowski hopes that more people who possess leadership will join Art Club so more input and action can be taken in the future.

Chorus Increases Treasury The Chorus Department undertook a new responsibility this year selling coasters. All three choruses roamed the town selling these plastic glasses. The project did successfully boost the chorus treasury. Director Miss Feldt was very pleased with the outcome. All three choruses combines their talents for three concerts. The final pops concert took place at the Twinning Park Bandshell. The large audience enjoyed a variety of performances. Both jazz Ensemble and Swing Choir performed. In addition, small instrumental and vocal groups rounded out the program. CLOCKWISE, UPPER LEFT: Chorus Accompanists, A. Duit, A. Jew, Miss Feldt. Chorus, FRONT ROW: D. Weckerly, S. Ellsworth, S.
