Band Marches On The first day of school saw a new face in the band room, that of Miss Terri Shea. Miss Shea is a graduate of Kansas State Universi- ty. Miss Shea was in charge of the middle school and Mr. Evans was in charge of the high school. The band members spent time in class working on music or practicing for performances. They put on halftime shows at all the home football games and attended the Nebraska State fair and KU band day. The band also played for basketball games and performed concerts. After a two-year absence, the band had a flag corps again. Members are Chris Compo, head, Ann Bestwick, co-head, Ercilia McNett, Jennifer Emert, Laura Cox, and Cynthia Hailey. Chris attended flag camp in Hastings, Nebraska, where she learned several routines which were used for halftime shows. 9

We Got Good Grammar Nouns, verbs, adjectives, sentence structure, and composition were all very familiar words in the vocabu- lary of English students. The English faculty consisted of Mr. Karla Schmille, who had advanced comp, junior English, and practical English. Mrs. Jennie Finney taught junior English and Spanish classes. Mrs. Gay McClain taught freshman and sophomore English. Mr. Herb Brown taught freshman English. Above left: Mrs. Schmille is hit with a brilliant idea for her advanced comp test.
