CllfbaCIiS cast shadow 0lI ilaif of department Cutbacks played their role casting an ominous shadow on sections of the PerforminglGraphic Arts department. Royce Tevis, depart- ment chairperson, ex- Dlaihed that hiS depart- ment had to earn money to exist. We dOh't have textbooks that we can refer to and use year after year. Each new work used by the band, drama or choral groups cost money, Mr. Tevis com- mented. For instance, he said. The band spent S500 on the music for the fOOtD8ii season 3lOne. On the other Side Of the darkness, the jour- nalism and speech side, cutbacks hardly scor- Cned their present struc- tures. TninQS Went very Weii, there Were SOme very DrOrniSinQ talents in the speech cIasses, noted Vallgnn R3I'nSeV, speech instructor. Ih the gl'aDhiCS end, ROQer WOO, journalism instructor remarked, We didh't have the bluechippers BS i8St year. COnCentratiOn WHS Di3CeCi on writing and 3C3CierniCS. Mr. TeViS eXCIaiI'hed that the entire department neid UD well and tnat all its facets bloomed.
