Richland Young Life was given an added boost through underclassmen. This organization is surrounded by christian fellowship and students who join together for one main goal: to learn more about Christ. The weekly club meetings, as in past years, consisted of skits, to make the students laugh, and the singing of popular songs. During the summer, many 'Young Lifers' from the Mid-Cities area at- tended a summer camp in Colorado. At this camp, the students were given the chance to learn responsibility as well as more about Young Life. Juniors Chris Middlebrooks, Amy Reeves, Karen Ziegler, and Bobbie Morgan trained for work crew members. This will enable them to possibly work at these types of summercamps in the future. To start the year off right, the first meeting was an all-city club, where sur- rounding schools such as Bell and Grapevine join with Richland to create a out of the ordinary atmosphere. When winter rolled around, many members took to the slopes of Buena Vista for some skiing and togetherness. At the beginning of the spring semester Young Life met for a Phil Sandifer concert and a small club. Along with the underclassmen sup- port came some new faces in the form of leaders. The new leaders were Eric Thompson and Chris Hingst. Returning from last year were Keith Hovis and Annie O'Grady. Closeness is always an important factor in holding a organiza- tion together. The overall feeling of Young Life this year was that students felt closer to each other as well as other schools. Kelly McFarland fjuniorl said, It seemed the closeness did not end after club was over. We all went out on the weekends and enjoyed being around each otherf' Scott Alread. One, Two, Three . . .

74 Ze N o o n e w a s quite s u r e h o w t h i s y e a r ' s mu sic al was going to tu rn out. After two weeks o f c o n - t i n u 0 u s auditioning and learning scripts, the director, Mr. David-Michael Hall, decided to c h a n g e t h e musical Guys and Dolls to one that was more focused on the full cast. He could see that the people were more talented as in- dividuals than as a whole. We wanted to feature more people as soloists rather than in an ensemble. There was too much talent to hide in a big groupf' said Mr. Hall. After the new scripts arrived and the cast began learning the songs, faces began lighting up. Working was per- formed on Broadway in 1978. It told of the lives of different people, regular people, that receive the credit they really deserve. The songs and words were taken directly from the persons interviewed which definitely put a big impact on the audience. I think we really got to the audience towards the end. After doing the show, I fell a lot different towards the characters, said Annette Mor- row fseniorl. 30 Design by Dana Mitchell The major point that the cast wanted to put across was to have the .X , .

They wanted to show how impor- tant the cleaning lady, the housewife, the steelworker, the teacher, etc. really are. This was one musical that stayed with the audience as they left. Besides being a form of entertainment, it was a learning experience. It made a lot of people realize that the people we take for granted are the ones who are the most important in our lives, the ones that deserve to be heard. The feelings and emotions came through. The cast talked to the au- dience, they became one. The last song of the musical brought the characters t o g e t h e r a n d showed the pur- pose for the per- f o r m a n c e .
