, ,, J, .717 puq,.Y -1--f.-.1 The Video Tape Club was very active this year. They were so busy and so fast that our cam- eras couldn't possibly take legible pictures. The club's main function is taping basketball and football games for helping coaches im- prove their coaching and players improve their playing. The Speech and Drama Clubs used video equipment to help improve their speaking and dramatizing by showing their bloopers. ln addition they tape television programs on various topics. This year the club bought new equipment such as a color camera and portable video recorder to improve the quality of the films. Under the leadership of Bro. joseph Esparza there were as departing seniors Dave Specht and jesse Sanchez from the ten-member group. These two people helped with the organiza- tion and have been loyal followers since. Thanks to the Video Tape Club, St. Francis has a well-rounded library of tapes ranging from Shakespeare to St. Francis games. eeaeeieeee gee Eexeesee 154 Video Tape Club
