by Jim Kaeding Fourteen South students left Mar. 27 for a trip to Europe during spring break, spending eight days in London and Paris. The American Leadership Study Groups, which provides educational trips to people throughout the country, sponsored the trip. The cost is $1100 to each student, not including lunches, gifts or other purchases. Mr. Vincent Pinelli, teacher-chaperone for the trip, commented, "This trip is educational as well as fun. We have been doing these kinds of trips for the past three years and it's worth the cost." After flying from Chicago to London, the students spent three days there visiting the British capital: Westminster Abbey and the House of Parliament. Other sights included, the Tower of London, the British museum and Windsor Castle. After arriving in Paris, the students spent the rest of the time seeing Notre Dame, Napoleon's Arc de Triomphe, the Louve museum and Gothic churches. They returned Sat., April 4.
New rules for Hawkettes
by Cathy Stavrakas Drill Team State Competition '81 resulted in new rules for the May '82 competition. Hawkettes were entered in three categories of the competition. They received two "superior trophies" for scoring 90% of the possible 100 points. The third category, kickline, was disqualified because one judge was a graduate of a competing high school. Palatine High School. A committee consisting of five people decided to leave the results as they stood at the end of the competition. New rules were made to compensate for this year's competition. 1) All announcements must be limited by number of words and must not include past
awards. 2) All state judges must have had three or more years of comparable experience. 3) The category evaluations should include three rating levels: superior, excellent and good. Trophies should be awarded for superior and ribbons for excellent and good. 4) Since the "rating" method of judging is very different from the "placing" method, the category judges should be required to keep their scores within a three point margin of each other. The superior, excellent, and good awards will be presented for four minute shows, and eight minute shows will be ranked 1,2,3,4. Hawkettes have won twelve 1st place awards and two superior awards within two years.
