Blue Mt. board OK's new lift The Blue Mountain Com munity College board has authorized a sum of not more than $5,441 to install a lift for handicapped access to the Business Department in the college's Morrow Hall. In a variety of other matters at the Nov. 21 meeting College President Ron Daniels was authorized by the board to prepare bid specifications for an additional lane of traffic coming up the college hill, east of the existing two lanes. The new lane would come up as far as the Morrow Hall parking area. Daniels will also gather bids on the construc tion of a sidewalk on the south side of Carden from Highway 37 to the college entry way. The construction projects will depend on state highway construction plans and the weather. Keith Kruchek Consulting Firm was hired to develop a complete energy audit of the college campus. The audit will be used by the firm to help BMCC apply for an energy conservation project grant. According to a report pre sented by Ellsworth Mayer, ' dean of academic planning and research, the architec tural firm of AJS-Lynch is currently studying remodel ing plans with appropriate college committees.

The lone High School Band began . working strenuously Monday on the five marching songs they will be making a tape of Dec. 21 and sending to the acceptance committee in Great America. Calif. Gene Sartain's group is hoping to be chosen as one of the marching bands that will come to the city's festival extraordinaire April 9. The five tunes the band will be playing are "The Hustle," "Evil Ways," "Rubberband Man," "You Should Be Danc ing" and "Paros Los Rum beros." The band is having extra rehearsals on weekends for the 26 marchers who are going to be able to go. Sartain said marching band music is required on the tape since the festival consists of groups of marching bands. A picture of the group must also be sent in and a good appearance is important, he said. The band director added that the group will begin practicing its marching tech niques to sharpen up that area of their program. Because of the cold weather, they will practice in the gym. "The band will march through the park and play a song until they reach the concert site where they will play a few more songs and then march out playing their final number," Sartain said. In other band news, Chris Rietmann has been selected to play the baritone sax in the Pendleton Community Wind Ensemble. The group consists of older adults but Rietmann, only a sophomore, played the music well enough to be asked to be one of the performers. Sartain was invited to play with the group and he took Rietmann along because he is so "advanced" in his ability and the director of the ensemble invited him to become a members. Rietmann is also a member of the Cardinal Company school rock band that is in the process of buying a $400 PA system for the high school. Rietmann plays the bass guitar, Mike Conklin plays the drums, Sartain plays the guitar and Linda Poole plays the organ. They all do some singing. Sartain said the rock band is polishing its songs, adding some material and gaining some experience by perform ing for high school functions in an attempt to get ready to play professionally on a regular basis sometime in March. He said the Heppner Elks Club has already invited the band to play. With the money the rock band raises at its engage ments, they will begin to pay off the PA system. The system consists of two column ampli fiers and one head amp. The band is purchasing the system from F&H Music in Pendleton and they are "letting us pay it off on a long time basis whenever we can," Sartain said. lone also has never had any type of keyboard instrument before so a used one has been purchased for $140. The money was taken out of the band parents' fund, which consists of money taken in from a variety of band fund-raising activities that have taken place this year. It is a Fartisa Combo Compact organ and Sartain said a new one would cost about $1,000. Although Europe is about the same size as Canada, its population is greater than North and South American combined, the National Geo graphic Society notes. MIC MIC t A f a v ft- a I (-9 !
