The Drill Team will consist of 18 members. The Drill Team coach, Alene Jensen, is trying to get judges from the Summit County School District to choose the girls they think will do the best in the club. The reason for this is so the girls don't think they have been judged unfairly by a prejudiced local person. Vicki Wallin, Diane Burns and Diane Chantry will not have to go before the judges because they have been with the Drill Team for two years, which automatically admits them into the club. They will have only to do a few march tests in front of their coach. Drill Team tryouts will be i held March 31 after school. Good Luck girlsl Cheerleaders by Helen Byer Cheerleader tryouts for the Park City High School will be held March 29 in the school auditorium, in front of the student body. Girls in grades . 8 through 12 are allowed to try out. The girls have to have a grade point average higher than 2.6 to try out. For the tryout, the girls must first do a group cheer with four girls in each group. When all the groups have completed their cheers, each girl must do a cheer by herself. The students will vote for the candidates of their choice. , .. iBiiTlTFTTTti in'T b i TOT qM i i Id f MUSIC NOTES Ji ITALIAN CUISINE an elegant but casual atmosphere OPEN FOR DINNER NIGHTLY From 5:30 Til 10:30 MINI-BOTTLES AND WINE AVAILABLE LOUNGE OPEN TILL 2 AM by Jay Meeban Two new musical acts appeared in the city of Park this past weekend. The individuals in the first one aren't new to town, just new as a duo. Jay Williams and Chuck Connely have been playing together and apart around town the last few years. Jay on guitar (strung backwards and upside down as Elizibeth Cotten or Albert King) and Chuck on harp make for a very interesting sound. Big Johns, the recently reopened Treasure Mountain Inn bar (the same one Gary Burdick ran the winter of '70-71), is now under the proprietorship of John Newland, owner of the Motherlode. It's casual atmosphere provided the perfect backdrop to Jay and Chuck's brand of country and blues rock. With Jay on 6-string and vocals, Chuck's harp is only required to be the entire rhythm section plus take frequent lead breaks. The harp's bouncy involvement in their arrangements is such that the aforementioned rhythm seems at times nothing less than a soft percussive lead, freeing the guitar to play around with the melody to a greater extent than one would expect from a duo. The material is eclectic: From Jesse Winchester Win-chester to Traffic; from Tom T. Hall (I can't dance) to Dylan (You Ain't Going Nowhere), from the Eagles and Burrito Brothers to Marshall Mar-shall Tucker. Familiar but new in approach. Check 'em out. It goes down real easy. Jay Williams and Chuck Connely, live at Big Johns. With Back Home taking a haitus, the Club Annex has booked a new band out of Salt Lake City. They call themselves the' Dan Smith Memorial Me-morial Band although they didn't elaborate on the origin of the name. A six piece group composed of Michael Shiya on 6-string guitar and vocals, Jim Shane on 12-string 12-string guitar and vocals, Bob Cox on lead guitar, Nat, Scriiff on bass; William Martin (that's Marteen) on drums; and Craig "Ted" Petterson on 5-string banjo. The individual pickers' widely varied musical experiences becomes apparent only with close listening. The progressive jazz influence seems to add time-play nuances even during a rather strictly constructed bluegrass tune. Their material seems to be growing and currently includes original tunes and contemporary ditties by writers of the John Prine genre. ' It will be interesting.to watch the group evolve. That's the Dan Smith Memorial Band at the Club Annex on weekends. projection, and lab services have made Super 8 an acceptable media to work in even for pros. On the minus side, many film makers using this new tool have produced unspeakable abominations, simply because the visual language needed to make a good film is never taught anywhere except (possibly) the college level. Thus the amateur film maker is forced to learn his art by trial and error, just like the old silent filmmakers.' film-makers.' . ; Craig Reece's film, Snow Job, shows what can be done with Super 8, as well as many of the pitfalls a Super 8 film maker can face. Learning to use a super 8 camera is the first (and in many ways the easiest) step in film making. Translating Tran-slating the product from a home movie into a FILM requires at least as much effort as the shooting. Most Super 8 film makers, including -Craig, don't understand this concept. The basic building block of any film is the shot. The shot could be compared with a sentence in writing. Writing in all simple sentences is boring. This paragraph is boring. Shooting many shots from the same angle is the same as writing all simple sentences. Example: Unless you are a skier who is really into air, a front layout looks like a back layout, looks like a Mobius etc. etc. Secondly, many film makers confuse quantity and quality. Every film maker (hopefully) gets ' some excellent shots, many average shots, and some poor shots. Cutting out all the poor shots results in an average film, with excellence buried in the mass of the rest of the film. EVALUATION SURVEY The Utah Board of Pub,ic fee,s about com" Education Evaluation Team, """"ty's school system, which was asked by the Park survey a random City Board of Education to sampling of 40 percent of the conduct a study of its schools, area served Park City mailed out public survey School District forms Friday, March 19, in an According to Carl Jensen, a effort to determine how the , representative,, pf the Utah,,,, " 1 ' . been working with the city's-. newly formen Park- City School Community Council, it . is crucial that a high percentage per-centage of those receiving the survey complete and return it by the March 27 deadline; Once tabulated the results will be published in the Newspaper and will be put in for the Utah State Board of Education evaluation of the Park City Schools. Building a film around excellence pulls the film out of mediocrity. Of course, one might lose over half the footage shot, but the result is a vast improvement in quality. Snow Job also showed some of the things that are rarely done right when Super 8 film making, but were pulled off quite well at Potato John's during the second showing of the flick. The presentation went well, with the video screen and the Super 8 projector matching 'up with precision that could be described as excellent. A great deal of thought alsp seemed to go into the sound track, as the music always seemed to portray the rhythm of the skiers on the screen. Craig also used the slow motion of the projector well, highlighting some excellent shots that he capturedThere's no doubt that most people in Park City could really get off on Snow Job. Would it play in Peoria? There is a vast gulf between a home movie maker and a film maker. A home movie maker throws a lot of images on the screen in random order in a presentation that puts Aunt Mary to sleep (snoring loudly). A film maker structures his film and presents it in such a way that when Aunt Mary starts to fall asleep (and she always does) the film hits a crescendo that wakes her up and knocks her off her chair. Craig Reece is in the middle of the gulf, starting the climb towards being a film maker. For those of you that think film making is easy, try it sometime. You are due for a jab in the eye with a sharp stick. Then the reviews come in, (unspeakable abomination - Pauline Kael) and you either collapse into a manic depression or jump off the edge into the gulf. Then you have a long climb ahead of you. It ain't easy, right, Craig? ( W(i ill II J (I Willi H.JIi II SEMITES 69-9066 FOR SALE: Older home, four bedrooms, two baths, basement and good location.
