Fourth place out of ten bands was the result of the Charlestown competition while at Columbus the marchers didnlt qualify to place due to the class DD category in which they were entered. The field contests offered a chance for individuals to perform solos while the band stood behind them. The soloists from SC. were Jeff Everett, sr., and Karen Edwards, jr. Lisa Crouse, the SC. field commander, commented on the marchersl outlook after the contest. tlDuring the field competitions, the band relaxed and did a terrific job, with just several minor mistakes, making it easier for me? The troops then took off their marching shoes to perform their two concerts which were open to the public. They performed an outdoor concert, held in Speed Park, accompanied with a special dinner afterward for their guests. The Christmas concert was presented in the auditorium. The band constantly performed as ttpepil band during all home varsity basketball games, providing half-time entertainment and performing such hits as Hump? uWrapped Around Your Finger? and the theme song from ttA-Team? The musicians also performed the traditional game-opener, itThe Star Spangled Banner. According to Deron Naugle, student president of the SC. band, the pep band performances, the concerts, field competitions, and the help of director Hoover, have all helped the band to get straightened out and, once again, gain the respect they deserve.

Student Directors; A plea of insanity or ? The job of a student director just cant be simplified! From the first rehearsal to the final show itts a constant re- sponsibility. The theatre depart- ment in the past school year presented three productions, each with its own student director. The first itYotfre A Good Man Charlie Browni, was student dir- ected by Jenny Shreve, sr., itThe Philadelphia Story - Jamie Tungate, jr., and ttCamelotti -- Stephanie Eppler, sr. The many chores of an assistant director consist of prompting lines, keeping track of blocking, reigning over the prop crew, lights person, and sound person, basic organization, and even running errands. The only requirements for the position are that you must be a junior or senior, and you must have some kind of experience with theatre. Jamie Tungate replied, I thought The Philadelphia Story was one of the best plays S.C. has produced. Being student director was a wonderful experience, and it would be great if more people could have the privilege. Pd like to continue participating in theatre, but as for being student director again, Pd rather give others a chance. by: Paul Brinley I x Tracy Lord, portrayed by Jeanie Straight, jr., throws a dazzling smile towards conniving Mike Connor, played by Tim Eaton, sr., who gains some courage from a little booze. ai- 7 a me T Sharing a moment of sisterly love is Jeanie Straight, alias Tracy Lord, jr., and Elizabeth Yost, soph., playing Dinah Lord, trying to make it in their confused and troubled lives.
