Choir
Continued from Page 1
McLucas said the Gospel Choir
grew out of the Gospel Ensemble
which is lead by John Gainer, a
professor who teaches the history
of gospel music.
Gainer founded the Gospel En
semble about 15 years ago but left
briefly in 1995, McLucas said.
Neufeld was then hired to lead
the ensemble and when Gainer
returned in 1996, Neufeld began
teaching the choir. The two
groups have completely different
repertoires and different styles.
Gainer is able to concentrate on
leading a select group of students
while Neufeld is able to share
gospel with students who may
not otherwise have had the op
portunity, she said.
“I think, actually, it was a won
derful solution,” McLucas said.
“Many people would like to learn
about gospel and how to sing
about it.”
Neufeld, who has been singing
since she was 2 years old, said she
feels an obligation to share gospel
music.
“My music is about joy and
that’s what I’m giving back,”
Neufeld said. “My life has been
changed by it.”
Sara Pavelich, a senior and the
soprano section leader, said
Neufeld brings a truly invigorat
ing energy to the choir.
“She’s not timid in the slight
est,” Pavelich said. “She’s not
afraid to get up and dance and re
ally get into it. That’s what helps
us really get into it.”
Pavelich said it would be an in
credible loss for the school if the
choir is discontinued.
“When we go out and represent
the University, it brings a new di
mension to things,” Pavelich said.
“It would cut down on the
breadth of diversity in the Univer
sity.”
Christine Harper, a senior so
prano, said the choir attracts a
very diverse and multicultural
group of people, many of them in
ternational students.
"I think people get to learn a lot
about gospel music in the United
States,” Harper said. “It brings a
lot of people together because
people work really hard to sound
good and learn. It’s just a great
way to make connections with
people.”
Harper said she knows several
students who joined the choir af
ter attending the choir’s concert
last spring.
“If you’re not even recruiting
except by the spirit and joy of the
song that’s pretty amazing,” she
said.
Harper said Neufeld “knows
how to help us celebrate life. And
trials, the good stuff and the bad.”
“Julia will reach out to you just
as much as you reach out,” Harp
er said. “Supporting each other,
that’s what the arts are all about. ”
Pavelich said singing with the
choir is an essential part of her
week.
“It’s just such a huge release no
matter what’s on your mind," she
said. “I don’t know what I would
do without it.”
The Gospel Choir performed at
the Hult Center bond burning cel
ebration last week. Their next
performance is at 7 p.m., Nov. 12
at the First Baptist Church, 868
High St. Among the songs they
will perform are: “The Spirit Says
Arise,” “Strength, Blessings, Glo
ry & Honor,” “Sing Hallelujah,
Amen” and “Worthy to be
Praised.” Everyone is welcome to
attend. The cost is $3 for students
and seniors and $5 for everyone
else.
Voting
Continued from Page 1
Elections on time, voters should have been given a
fail-safe ballot when they show up to the polling
place. This ballot allows voters to vote on all candi
dates and measures that appear on the normal ballot.
When registrations are confirmed, fail-safe ballot
votes are tabulated with the normal votes.
“The only time that voters cannot vote on local is
sues and candidates is when they register with a
change of address at the last minute,” said Lois Beck
er of Lane County Elections. “The challenge ballot
only lets them vote on state and federal issues and
candidates.”
The challenge ballot does not include local mea
sures and candidates because it has to be confirmed
that voters actually live and pay taxes in the precinct
for which they are registered.
“It’s unfortunate that some people were not regis
tered,” ASUO Vice President Morgan Cowling said.
“Whenever you do anything at this level, there is go
ing to be a margin of human error. Overall, we con
sider the voter registration drive to be a big success.”
The ASUO Executive estimates they registered
close to 3,500 people for this election, better than ex
pected for a non-presidential election, Cowling said.
Elections officials have safeguards to prepare poll
workers for errors that may have occurred when peo
ple were registering to vote.
“We have detailed, step-by-step instructions that
inform the poll workers of what they are supposed
to do,” said Becker. “Every once in awhile a worker
will make a mistake and we regret that very much.”
Two teen shooters plead guilty
The Associated Press
KENT, Wash. — The two 16
year-old boys aren’t pals or class
mates. Several months ago, they
didn't even know one another.
But Edward Adam Hopper and
Joseph Ualifi Taualii found them
selves together in a King County
Superior Court room, their ac
cusers telling similar tales of
loaded guns, empty beer cans and
fatal horseplay with friends.
In each of the separate cases, the
teens bowed their heads in contri
tion and entered barely audible
guilty pleas to first-degree
manslaughter charges. A week be
fore Christmas, they’ll come be
fore Gain again to learn how much
youth they will lose behind bars.
Prosecutors say they will join
defense attorney John Henry
Browne in asking Gain to sentence
each boy to five-year prison terms.
The shootings — one in April,
the other in June — left two teens
dead and four families anguished.
“This has got to stop,” said
James Wolf, whose son, James G.
Wolf, was killed from a shotgun
blast discharged by Hopper.
"There are too many kids dying.”
Hopper’s mother, Sara, watched
her son plead guilty Friday before
Gain, tears lining her face.
"This is every family’s night
mare,” she said later. “And we are
living it.”
Charging papers show the coin
cidences that brought Hopper and
Taualii before the same judge on
the same day began months be
fore, with the same alcohol-fueled
mistake and the same irreversible
result.
Authorities say the last word
17-year-old James G. Wolf heard
was “freeze.”
Hopper had said it to him on
April 16, in a night of beer drink
ing at an Auburn apartment the
boy shared with his mother and
stepfather.
It was after midnight, and Wolf
was about to leave. Hopper, feign
ing a robbery, pushed his sawed
off shotgun into Wolfs back.
“Freeze,” he said, and the gun
discharged.
Edward Hopper told police he’d
bought the weapon for $40 in Feb
ruary.
Sara Hopper and her husband
knew. They had told him to get rid
of it. He didn’t, even though he
was on home detention for an at
tempted car-theft conviction and
told by a judge not to possess
firearms.
Two months later in Renton a
.357-caliber revolver was in the
hands of Taualii. Charging papers
say he and a 15-year-old friend,
Justin Womack, were having a pre
tend argument inside Taualii’s car.
They, too, had been drinking beer.
Taualii took the gun from under
the front seat and pointed it at
Womack’s chest. He thought the
weapon was unloaded. It wasn’t.
Browne praised prosecutors for
not seeking the standard 6 1/2- to
8 1 /2-year penalty range for either
teen.
James Wolf, like Sara Hopper,
sat sorrowfully in Kent’s Region
al Justice Center as the two boys’
lives converged.
“We can’t just slap them on the
wrist and send them back to their
parents,” he said. “If we do that,
we are going to keep burying our
kids.”
