DRAMA CLUB OFFICERS: laurie Tracy, Steve Turner, Debbie Maxfield, President Bill Squire, Jan Sharp.

Debate Club Did you ever wonder why these weird people were dressed up in Sunday Best, carried 8 odd shoe boxes full of cards, and gave up most of their Saturdays to go to a debate tournament? They like the satisfaction of success in competition. They like to walk into a room and watch the expression on the faces of the other team. Not only did they achieve satisfaction from ham- mering Brighton and Kearns etc., but they also gained the knowledge from researching their topic. Their ulti- mate motivating force was the out-of-state trip to Cali- fornia! John Houg, Mike Mcintosh, Marcie Beck, Leslee Colins, Corri Groomer, EvAnn Dahl, Rachel Borton, and April Smith.

Exploring New Cultures: International Club learning appreciation of foreign cultures is one of the main goals of International Club. The members learned through experi- ence, visiting places of interest and having lectures and films on various countries. But the club wasn't all work. Early morning breakfasts, and lots of parties kept up a fun and fast moving schedule. The members didn't have to belong to a foreign language class. Many joined just to be a part of the fun and excitement. At the end of the year a semi-formal dinner was held for all the active members. -\"' Club Officers, Clock-wise from Bottom: Jane Wong, President; Debbie Bently; Mar- cia Page; Carlo Esqueda. 154

With all the troubles Ski Club had an excit- ing program consisting of parties, day and night skiing with special discounts on ski equipment. Club motto: \"Think Snow!\"

The Lettermen ' s Club is the elite club at Hillcrest. Unchallenged by the women ' s movement, it retained its traditional title . To become a member an athlete had to have participated in so many quarters, innings, matches, or meets in var- sity play. This year ' s members not only participated in their own sports, but were the best Hillcrest fans for fellow athletes. They also sponsored a school stomp, and the club's tree in the library won the Christmas tree decoration contest. Officers were Brad Jordison, Presi- dent; Todd Tapp, Vice President; and Craig Fackrell, Secretary. The famed letter, symbol of the letterman 's Club Coach Jimas . 15

VICA Prepares Students for Careers The Vocational Industrial Club of America was one of the fastest growing clubs at Hillcrest. Students inter- ested in shop, auto, drafting, and other industrial areas were involved in preparing their works for competition on local state, and national levels. The prospects were good for VICA in all areas. Many students joined VICA because they belonged to a vocational class, such as shop or auto. A stomp sponsored by VICA in the fall attracted many students and helped to raise money for the club. 160

Orchestra The Hillcrest Orchestra was busily involved in a meas- ure of musical performances. They produced a variety of notes in such places as the Cottonwood Mall, church meetings, elementary and junior high schools, convales- cent homes. Barlow Bradford led the orchestra, taking second place in piano and organ at the Utah State Fair and participating in the Salute to Youth with the Utah Symphony Orchestra. The entire orchestra attended District Honor Orchestra, Region Orchestra, solo and ensemble festivals, and the Western Region festival in Oregon. The members not only played together but also attended many plays and symphonies. They grew to be \" quite a chummy group\" by the end of the year. left to Right: Barlow Bradford, David Owens, Sherri Penrose, Becky Schott, Glennis Hone, Marcelle Poll, Suzanne Davis, Morna Breese, Tammy Rose, Cynthia Roach, lynette Reid.

Dean, they entertained at many different functions includng assem- blies, church services, parties, meetings and many others. The choir also served as ushers for the opera Hansel and Gretel. One of the highlights of the year for the choir was the district and region competitions. Each student in the choir was required to sing a solo and perform in a quartet. As always, the students from Hillcrest did admirably receiving superior and excellent ratings. To entertain arriving audiences, the Chamber Choir sang Christmas carols for Hansel and Gretel.

The Club The Club was a new organiza- tion of spirit. Unstiffled by struc- ture, The Club's members armed themselves with identifying T-shirts to show their equality and right to be uninhibited in fun. They cared about Hillcrest. \"They cheered us in our victory, and in defeat stood by.'' Victory was sweeter when The Club stood by. ... T-shirts, designed by Wayne Pullan, were the only sign of membership.

Students Care The December 7th Blood Drive sponsored by Focus was a tremen- dous success. Over 400 students turned out to give a pint of blood to the Red Cross. The process was slow but not very painful. After- ward the students were given a glass of orange juice, a cookie, and a \"Be Kind to Me Today, I Gave Blood\" sticker. The students all agreed that it was an experience they wouldn't have wanted to miss. Before giving blood , each student had to fill out a complete medical his· tory, and have their blook tested for iron . The actual time for giving blood was anywhere between about 5 and 10 minutes . The nurses checked each person 's arms, to see which would be easiest to get blood from . 180

As he rises from his seat and joins other lines of students shuf- fling to the safety zones outside the building, his mind struggles at this monotonous upset of routine. Mr. Reid, self-appointed fire chief, searches frantically for the phan- tom. The seriousness of the fire drill is forgotten while the crowd min- gles as if at an elementary recess.

Though highly competitve with more tournaments than any league sport, debate attracted no cheerlead- ers, screaming masses, or delirious fans . What it did attract was a dedicated coach, Dennis Edmonds , and a nucleus of resolved students who gave liP Saturdays and Enrichment sleep to overwhelm state-wide oppo- nents with verbal skill. Words like \" antitrust, \" \" inher- ency,\" \" disadvantage, \" \" harms, \" and \" prelims \" spewed forth from the debate room boggling the minds of passersby. Major fall tournaments included the University of Utah Invitational, Governor 's Cup, the Copper Classic, where Dahl, Groom, Smith, Barton, Beal, Pullan, Col- lins, and Beck led the team .

Gretel (Lori Smith) mends stockings by the while dreaming of so me- thing to eat. Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Gre- tel and a little boy named Hansel. Like most children, they should have been working, but they danced and played instead. When their mother came home, she scolded them and sent them into the woods to pick strawberries. The story of what happened to Hansel and Gretel written by Engelburt Humperdink, formed the first opera ever produced at Hillcrest. The Utah Youth Symphony, conducted by Robert Lentz, wos featured as the orchestra. For many people the best part of the opera was the scenery. David Montgomery and his scenery crew worked for weeks to perfect the special illusions needed. Although Hansel and Gretel was the f irst of its kind at Hillcrest, it was one of our school's best produc- tions ever. Imprisoned by the witch, Hansel (Barbara Kay) tries to think of a plan to help him and Gretel escape. 189
