Hivne revue was entitled ... l Destiny", the theme ';was Neil Diamond's The use of scarves, l0:;: 30 flags of different portrayed the many who - is country with hopes and ' lt :r new lives of freedom. In i the flags the students ut countries they didn't know existed like Botswana, Samalia and that Great Britian was the same country as England. Also, it was noted that many countries such as the Scandinavians had flags of the same design, but different colors. The same with Japan and Bangladesh. One student observed that if the flags are so much alike we must feel and think pretty much the same, so why all the wars? But the highlight of the revue was the production number portraying the tragedy of the Civil War; where brothers were killing brothers. To put this idea across a student playing the role of a Union soldier shot and killed a Confederate soldier only to discover that it was his own brother he had killed. It was a serious number to learn and present. Martin Jackson of Orem was the young man portraying the confederate soldier. He practiced hard at dying slowly and trying not to giggle while playing dead. After the show was over, it was asked of Martin's father if his son had died . slowly and played his part well. The father's replay went something like this: "Yes, my son died just great, but while he was lying on the stage, I noticed that he had on his tennis shoes with red soles and bright red socks. So through the rest of the number, all I could look at were those bright red socks and shoes. I didn't even notice much of anything else during the rest of the number." And he had three other daughters in that number. In spite of one number done perfectly, but with their backs to the audience; the usual baton drops, a few out-o- f steps, etc., the show was a success and it was great fun. It made parents beam with pride, brought a few tears to their eyes as their children gave their best. And parent's pride in their children is the most important thing about a spring recital. The" Blue Crystals will be presenting "American Destiny" many times this summer throughout Utah County; with their main performance at the Family City, USA, celebration in Orem on July 23 at 4 p.m. If you have any calls regarding performances feel free to call Florence Adams 785-101- Robber gets little in 7-- 11 theft 'Friday the Thirteenth began ominously for Pleasant Grove Police Officers when an armed man robbed the local Store at 1:55 a.m. Officers are looking for a suspect described as a white male, 19-2- 0 years of age, 5' 8" tall, 160 pounds, with black hair and a slight mustache, wearing dark glasses, dark blue pants (possibly sweat pants ) , and a medium-blu- e T shirt. The unidentified clerk said the robber came in the door carrying a brown leather bag and demanded money out of the till. He also asked for and took the money order stamp machine. Lt. Tom Paul of the Pleasant Grove Police Dept. said the robber got away with only a minimal amount of money. "Hardly I anything," the officer stated. He said the man was armed with a large caliber hand gun. He made the clerk go into the back of th store when he left. Lt. Paul said they believe the suspect's car was behind the building during the robbery. Pleasant Grove's last armed robbery was on Oct. 14, 1983 when LaCasita was robbed. Lt. Paul said it was an interesting coincidence that Provo had an ar-med robbery about 45 minutes after the Pleasant Grove incident. However, a black man was listed as the suspect in that robbery. The investigation of the robbery is continuing. Writers at Work confab slated The second annual Writers at Work Writers Conference will be held June 15-2- 1 at the Ramada Inn in Park City.
