Band is an activity which takes many talented people, a lot of time, and much hard work. Most of a band mem- ber's summer is spent march- ing and practicing almost ever- yday! They go to contests and compete and spend a week working hard at camp. As a result of their efforts, the New Castle Chrysler High School Marching Band received fifth place in the state band contest. The band played a selection of music which included the in- troduction to Fantasia, Coven- try, Goody-Goody, Rainbow Connection, and Santa Esmer- elda. Although being in band takes a lot of time and work, it is also a lot of fun. The week spent at band camp is probably the hardest week and at the same time the most fun. The band members practice about eight hours a day. To provide a break from all the practices and to initiate new members, one day is set aside which the seniors especially enjoy. To be- come a member, a person must go through a series of messy, smelly, sticky, and sometimes very unappealing activities. An assortment of chicken grease, mud, peanut butter, syrup and cereal, and senior goulosh are smeared all over the body from the top to the bottom, and then covered with cut grass. Hunks of onions must be eaten, and vinegar and soda provide a re- freshing mouth wash. After all this is done, another loyal band member is born. The New Castle Chrysler High School Marching Band is definitely a dedicated one. It shows in their practicing, hard work, music, and perfor- mances, but most of all, it shows in their hearts and in their smiles. ,... Ra 'I 5 ,Z in Q , .

These students, Pete Mo- daff and Jan Garvin, were both sent to South America. Pete Modaff, who went to Columbia, returned to New Castle with an idea of life out- side the United States. He lived with the Gaforos family in Bogota, the capital of Co- lumbia. Bogota, a city with a popula- tion of five million people, has many exciting activities. With a city as large as Bogota, Pete found quite a few more things to do than if he had been home in New Castle. Pete toured all over the city seeing museums, San Augusta Archeological Park, and street scenes with American friends. All of the city was Beautiful, said Pete, but my favorite part of Bogota was the old sec- tion where the government is centered. Many of the streets there were unpaved, and there was poverty, but it was still beautiful. The size of the city was not the only change for Pete. The family he stayed with had thir- teen members and his real fam- ily has only five. He liked all of the family, but got along best with the older children. He en- joyed his time spent in Colum- bia, but was glad to get back to New Castle.
