l New Realm of Music and Marching Gpens for Sophomores Sophomore musicians arriving at summer band camp were cordially wel- comed by veteran band members and a shower of eggs, peanut butter, and grease. The initiation exercises soon subsided, however, and the newcomers spent most of their time learning the fundamentals of marching. Although tense, nervous, and excited prior to their first performance at the Sumter-Manning football game, soph- omores had little difficulty keeping time with the more experienced senior band. Providing a spirited atmosphere for Council Street pep rallies and assem- blies, and joining with the senior band in preparation for the state marching competition were other activities that improved and refined the skills of the sophomore players. 110 Organizations wiv twain ' f Ui SOPHOMORE BAND - Front Row: Mr. Robert Sanders, Director, Leigh Mazursky, Susan Motter, Anne Wand, Dody Meadows, joyce Sweat, Daryll johnson, Marce Peeples, Kathy Brewer: Second Row: Cherie Yarborough, Silinda Canty, Major Scott, Douglas Burgess, john Smiley, Mike Sautter, Tommy Dabbs, David Stone, Walter Gerald, Third Row: joey Ayers, Kevin Williams, Mike Lane, Tyrone Chastain, Willie Lucas, Marion Baker, Fourth Row: Ronald Hudson, Chevon jackson, Robert Brown, Lorenzo McDonald, Ternice Baylor, Walter Pringle, Matt Yates, Fifth Row: Alex james.

Le Cercle Francais Gathers in the Homes of Members French students took a novelty approach in establishing a French Club that would do away with stiff, after-school club meetings, and replaced them with informal, relaxed gatherings at the homes of club members. French games were played, songs were sung, and skits were preformed at the monthly meet- ings. At one particular meeting held at the home of Denise Perry, club members were treated to a French cuisine soup, bouillabaisse . Sounds of the farewell song Bon Soir Mes Amis, Bon Soir , resounded throughout the houses at the close of each meeting. The French Club also travelled to Columbia one Sunday afternoon to see the hilarious comedy Le Medecin Malgre Lui presented by Le Treteau de Paris.
