band has developed anew marching stylewhich is different frompast years. This year theband is not a miltacymarching band. It is a ,show band whichmeans it makes forma-tions and patterns onthe field instead of theblock style in the past.In addition to their

show band style mar-ching, they have addedthe Drum Corps. TheDrum Corps is a percus-sion ensemble that per-forms to percussionalmusic during its ownparr of the half-rimeshow.The Drum Corpsmembers are Ruth VanDyke. senior , mallets;

Chad McCullough,sophomore. mallets;Barbara Gra esser ,senior, snare drum;Kim Green, junior,

date" falls.Bryan High will belooking for some non-district compe: itionconsidering that [hefour year contract theysigned with GalvestonBall expired at the endof this year and theyhave no intention ofrenewing it . Thus far.Bryan has but one non-district game which willbe with Lufkin.Another alternativewill be for Bryan'sdistrict to match upwith Arlington (7 -Sa) ,Conroe (16-5a). orAustin (26-5a) districts.These districts also havean odd num ber ofteams in their dist rictswhich will makescheduling easier onAthletic Directors.All classificationswere based on enroll-ment figures for the1979 and 1980-1981school years and will re-main in force for thenext rwo school years,beginning inS ep tem b e r 1982.

by J im R i dgwa yspecial writerWith the beginningof the draft registra-tion, there has been agreat deal of controver-

sy over the subject. Agreat deal of this hasbeen based on lack ofknowledge of theregistration.The registration doesnot mean that a personis going to be drafted orthat there will a draft.What it does mean isthat if a draft does oc-cur, the selective servicewill know where malesof drafting age live.During previousdrafts, college students

exemptionchecking

have been exempt.Now students have lostthat exemption. Thisleaves another group ofpeople who are exemp-ted. They are the Cons-cientious Objectors.Conscientious Objec-tors are those who ob-ject to war because oftheir strong religiousbeliefs. A diHicuhywith this is theseparating of thoseamong [his groupwhich actually havestrong religious beliefsfrom those who are c r y -ing to duck theirresponsibilities to theirnation.A question must beasked as to whom is to

Smoking continuesthough hazardousby James Hallreporter

Many teen-agers bet-ween the ages of 1 5 and18have taken up smok-ing. Should they bepermitted to smoke oncampus.This is a question(hat has been debatedthroughout the years atmany high schools.Many of these highschools have permittedth e students on theircampuses to smoke.and lately more and

more schools are per-mitting student smok-ing. Should Bryan Highhave smoking? Here aresome of the pros andcons of the issue.Smoking- is hazar-dous to. one's health.However, only one ourof four develop serioushealth problems fromsmoking. Smoking oncampuses might get OUtof hand without theproper rules and regula-[ions. Some ideas otherschools have come upWIthare as follows:

decide whether a per-son's rel igious beliefsue strong enough togive reason for exemp-tion from the draft.There are few solu-tions to the above pro-blem. One such wouldbe for ConscienciousObjectors to serve theircountry, though not ona combat duty.Another solution is todo away with the ex -emption for Conscien-tious Objectors com-plerely, However, thiswould be unfair andpossibly unconsriru-tional.Hopefully. we shallnever need to rely onthe draft.

1. Get written perrnis-sron from parents orguardians giving ap-proval of their childsmoking.2. Students will beallowed to smoke indesignated areas only.3. A required class forsmokers on the dangersof smoking once a weekbefore or after school.This plan has workedfor many public schoolsin [he Central Texasarea. It could work forBrya~ H_igh.too.

He isplanning to go onanother cruise trip thissummer on a ship call-ed the Island Princess, asister ship to [he PacificPrincess. seen on thetelevision show Love

Boat. His most recentcruise trip was to theNorth Pole.His cru ise co rheNorth Pole began nnJuly 18 of this year. Heleft Bryan with hisparents on July 16 andflew to New York. Hethen flew across theAtlantic to Amsterdam.Holland. He spent the

night there. and thenon July 18 he traveledto the port city of Ham-burg. Germany, wherehe boarded the cruiseship.His ship, the M.S.V istafjord. carriedCharles through the ic ywaters of the ArcticOcean. He traveled

along the coastline ofNorway. The ship stop-ped in several com-munites along [he wayto the ice cap. One ofthe stops was in Ham-merfest. Hammerfest isthe northernmost set-tlement in the world.Most of the set-tlements near theNorth Pole are quitesmall. A large com-munity often has onlyabo u t 2 a 0 0 i n-habitants.The people[here eat a great deal offish and fruit. Theirhomes are more in-sulated and have em -bankments of din.Charles' ship went asclose [0 the North Poleas it could. lee in thewater prevented theVistafjord from gettingany closer than about)88 nautical miles fromit. 588 nautical miles isabout 500 statute, orregular miles.The horizon at theice cap is totally white.The sun never sets, butit appears (0 move rothe south at times. Thetemperature stays in the30's and 40's. even inthe summer. There isalso a great deal of

humidity there.Except for StOPS inthe small towns,Charles stayed on theVistafjord during thewhole trip. It was dif-ficult to communicatewith many of the peo-ple on the cruise ship,because three-fourthsof the people spokeGerman. The per-formers on the ship hadto sing half of the songsin German and half inEnglish. The games onthe ship had to beunderstood by both theGerman and Englishspeaking people.The cruise itselflasted for two weeks.On the way back toHamburg, the shipmade stops in the citiesthat it had missed whilegoing up to the ice cap.Charles has been tomany areas of theworld. He has visitedEurope, most of thestates in the U nitedStates, and the Carib-bean. Charles lovesphotography, andtraveling to these placesgives him a goodchance to take picturesof unique and unusuallands.
