The freshman and junior choirs will each have a scene, as will the ensembles, “so that each ensemble will get to take part,” explained Janet Howland, choir director. Uncomplicated scenery will be used, and “the members of the department will probably make the scenery themselves.” JULIE LIND, a member of the Choralettes, stated that she “be­ lieved there will be a good turn­ out. There usually always is. Even though there are many times during the weeks before the show that we get scared that things won’t turn out right, the problems always seem to work themselves out with little help.” Julie finished by saying, “It is well worth the time and effort put into it. Everything works out because it is a joint effort and everyone helps.” Substitutes include Carol Ada- movics, Linda Schnell, Michelle Burton and Barb Schuld. “On- Call,” which is also a substitute group, are Robin Cutler, Robin Hanousek, Kay Brooks, Sheryl Sharyl Swope, junior, and Mark Gearhart, sophomore, examine newly hatched chicks chicks that were part of a sci­ ence experiment conducted in Dennis Holm and Robert Shewbert’s biology classes.

The Generals won their third straight victory and, for doing so, received a 20-volume set of encyclopedias, “contrary to Mr. Padrow’s statement that we had won a 20-volume set if diction­ aries,” Larry stated. Each team member was responsible for capturing sev­ eral toss-ups, and consequently earned the bonus points. Larry and Margaret Fraser captured the most points—three toss-ups each. “The whole team was so sharp that I really can’t say anything about any one person in particu­ lar,” Larry commented. “Mar­ garet was really tremendous, but Evan Whipple and Steve Reinsch were also great.” The third victory for the Gen­ erals was their last. According to the rules of High-Q, no one school can appear more than three consecutive times.
