UNIVERSITY
Performers vie to sing anthem at games
By Ann* Moaer-Komfeld
> <* ifie Oegan Otutr f
Water bottles were the fashion rage. The
mood of the warm-up room was tense and
nervous. Singers laughed between practicing
takes. This was the time to forget the lyrics
and iron out any mistakes
All for the chance to sing one song, once
Auditioner Karen Hackman said. "It's a dif
ficult song, but why not?"
The University had its first National
Anthem contest Sunday night to find singers
for the men's and women's basketlxall games
Early in the week, about 20 people had signed
up to audition. By the time the contest got
under way. <>0 eager singers were anticipat
ing their tryout.
"We didn't think the tryouts would ho that
big of a deal,” coordinator Devon Smith said
The age range of the singers and skill lev
el of each contestant varied.
Damaris Peterson, age 9. sings at church
and on Saturday mornings whon she visits
her grandmother. Damans likes "The Star
Spangled Banner." her only anxiety came
from being so young. "I never really sang
before this many people," she said
Lori Ma< edone sings professionally for a
living
"This song is the hardest thing in the world
to do," Mai edone said "The depth of the
song is truly a challenge."
Macodone arrived in a tuxedo and red and
white heeled spats Before her solo, she first
played a pitch pipe and then looked straight
at the flag while holding her hand over her
heart.
A barber shop quartet from Creswell High
School sang a 1950s rendition of the anthem.
Seth I’ratt. Butch Greiner. Bob Faust and Jeff
Glass, all 17. wore faded jeans with white
rolled sleeved T-shirts. They got together for
this audition because they're Duck fans and
love basketball.
Harold Hadden, who is retired, started
attending Duck games 18 years ago He sings
along with the anthem before every game
"I sing solo at church," Hadden said. "I'm
a cantor."
Hadden said he believed it would be fun
to sing for an opening game.
Among others was a group of 12 from the
Oregon Children's Choir. Crow High School
students and various duets who all sang their
unique interpretations of the national anthem
"The competition is going to be stiff."
Smith said. "There have been some really
good singers. The judges' job isn’t easy."
Contestants were judged on poise, musi
cality, presentation and overall performance.
A panel of seven judges determined the num
ber of openings for the season. They'll be
scheduled to sing for one game, and the win
ners will be notified no later than Friday.
Newspapers will be read from computers in future
By Michele Stengel
for the Oegcrt Oany t'mewkt
By lilt! end of the decade,
newspapers will be read from flat
panel computers instead of the
traditional paper forms
Roger Fuller, the head of
Knight-Riddor's Information
Design laboratory, described to
journalism students how elec
tronic and digital technology is
going to revolutionize the way
media is presented to and
accessed by its readers
Newspapers will be v«*r«fcJ
electronically via fiber optics or
i able lines to a notebook-sized,
pen-based computer, fuller said.
This lightweight flat panel
computer displays a newspaper
front page with abstracts of the
stories, which <a» be touched to
access the rest of the information
"The flat panels are more inter
active than paper newspapers
because they allow the reader to
browse through the stories with
the touch of a finger," Fidler said.
Knight-Ridder is developing
the ability to blent) video clips
anti sound into the print. Graph
ics will soon have the capabili
ty to become fifteen-second video
dips with sound when activated
by the readers' touch, Fidler said.
Even though this ability ven
tures into the territory of televi
sion, Fidler said, "We're not try
ing to compete with what TV
does best, but right now there is
a window for development in
print media."
Besides offering interactive
graphics, the flat panel comput
i*r also allows its readers to cre
ate their own highly personalized
newspaper.
It does this by letting readers
designate which sections of the
newspaper they want to receive.
The computer can even pull out
certain types of stories that the
reader is interested in and pre
sent a summary' of them.
"The electronic newspaper
plays on the strengths of tradi
tional newspapers but adds addi
tional value to the product.”
Fidler said.
