WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY //?e THPO The Class of 1984 Proudly Presents The Seventy-Third Annual Freshman Glee Willamette University Cone Field House Sparks Center March 14,1981 8:00 p.m. Dedication Freshman Glee dedication is given with enthusiasm and gratitude to G. Herbert Smith, a man whose perserverance and lifetime commitment to education kept Willamette strong in its pursuit of academic excellence. Serving as the University x27;s President for 27 years, Dr. Smith helped make Willamette the outstanding institution it is today. History Freshman Glee began in 1909 when the class of 1912 challenged the other classes in a song competition an event which became a tradition distinct to Willamette. In the past, Glee has been held in the Chapel of Waller Hall, the First Methodist Church, the Salem Armory, and the old Willamette Gym (today x27;s Playhouse). Since 1975, Cone Field House has been used to accommodate the everpopular Freshman Glee. Originally, Freshman Glee was a simple presentation of songs on a bare stage. Over the years, elaborate sets, marching and complex formations have also become essential parts of this special event. Freshman Glee is Willamette x27;s own tradition of the past, which will continue in the future. Official Glee Judges of 1981 Lyrics/Composition: Alice Rose Jones, Mrs. Walter A. Buhler, Michael Crawford. Vocal Rendition/Presentation: David Crane, Ron Jones, Dr. David Welch. Marching/Formation: Gwen Crane, Ward Nelson, Col. Hugh Nelson, Norman Wheeler. Judging and Rules Freshman Glee is judged in three major categories: musical composition and lyrics, vocal rendition, and marching and formations. Musical composition and lyrics is based on originality, coordination, adaptability to the Glee theme and overall impact of the song. Vocal rendition is judged on expression, tone quality, and musicality. Marching and formations is judged on the basis of precision, originality, and overall effect. Using an established system, the judges award points for each of the three areas. The class accumulating the most points will be the winner of Freshman Glee.

Mendenhall, Dean of the School of Music There x27;s an old historic temple rising grandly through the years, Where the oaken hearted fathers drew their strength for strong careers; Down the years, its portals open, Gathered wise ones to its fold. Breathed the spirit of the Westland Cardinal emblem x27;bossed with gold. Dear old School How strong we love thee x27;Round thy memories how we cling Glad some hearts beneath thy shadow, loyal hearts to thee we bring. Old Willamette how we cherish all thy legends and thy lore, Born upon the calm Pacific, Guides us onward ever more. Spirit x27;of the Golden Westland, breathing through the fathers tears, Tells the story of the temple, bids us hope a down the years. Sing, oh, sing of dear Willamette, Sing while hearts are young and true, Sea to sea the chorus swelling, Dear Old School of our W.U. Signs Of The Times By Cathy Wade and Kerry Tymchuk Class of 1981 The 1950 x27;s were a time to play, High school proms and lover x27;s lane. Roller skates and motor bikes, We all loved Lucy and we all liked Ike. We all loved Lucy and we all liked Ike. They wore pink poodles on their skirts uh huh They greased their hair and they like to flirt tee hee Elvis Presley was all the rage oh, yes he was Oh, how those hips they swished and swayed Oh, how those hips they swished and swayed Too bad those times have gone away. We missed the best of those quot;happy days. quot; Leather jackets and coonskin caps, the 60 x27;s came . . . and we never looked back Peace . . . Peace . . . Peace . . . We prayed for peace, but our brothers went to war, and no one ever told us what they were fighting for. And bullets took our heroes, like King and J.F.K. And through the Beatles we escaped with dreams of yesterday, while the hair grew on the hippies, we landed on the moon. And the seventies changed our tune Bee-Gees, Disco, Streisand, Rocky, Big Mac, and five onion rings. Two, three, four, Robert Redford, Archie Bunker, fly the friendly skies Pollution strikes, inflation hits, we kiss our bucks goodbye ERA and women x27;s lib means no more girls and guys And there was Chorus Line, designer jeans, diets to look trim. Wilbur Mills and Fannie Foxe take a late night swim. Gerry trips, Jimmy grins, Nixon x27;s not a crook. We celebrate 200 years and stop and take a look Kunte Kinte, John Travolta, running laps is in. Franco Harris, Terry Bradshaw, Pittsburg wins again Push Shove Crash Beep We x27;re running out of gas. So we better stop right here and say, So we better stop right here and say, The Eighties . . . The Eighties . . . The Eighties . . . They came at last Prologue: We announce the Junior class that is, providing we do pass in an attempt to cast a light on yesterday. So the future, we might find will cast less burden on our minds while the past may have some wisdom to convey. As the stars have always been they may shine as we begin on our road to contemplate eternity. We will join in joyful throngs in the style of old glee songs hoping to revive our sense of history. I. We all came to college to further our knowledge so we may all one day be smart. But unless we be snobs we must also find jobs . . . and unfortunately that is very hard. We x27;ve all been good students with patience and prudence except when it comes to the books. If we budget our time then our grade-points will climb and professors will not give us dirty looks. We x27;ve lived on this campus although it may cramp us the real world can give us a scare. When our belief sours in ivory towers we recall we x27;d rather be here than out there. We Can See The Stars By Mark Simmer and Steve Miller Class of 1982 M. We x27;ve watched the moon beam Down by the mill stream We x27;ve felt the gentle rain We x27;ve watched the stars glow after the disco we x27;re walked the lovers x27; lane. We x27;ve had our romance We x27;ve had our slow dance We x27;ve had our tender spats But we x27;ve settled quarrels We x27;ve kept our morals Romantic diplomats. I x27;ve made my love known Beneath your window Singing this seranade As stars shine so brightly Tell me you love me And our dreams will never fade III. We are for Willamette University We will stick by her through all adversity When we x27;re all rich financiers We x27;ll send our children here We like our professors and they x27;re really swell Now we x27;re full of knowledge x27;cause they taught us well Every evening we study Or go to the library In the dormitories we all sit and talk But we go to bed each night at ten o x27;clock Weekends we dress real smart To take out our best sweetheart When our boyfriends call we answer right away We can x27;t wait x27;till we go out on Saturday If the evening went just right We x27;ll give him a kiss goodnight In our majors we are very diligent When we leave we all will be intelligent We never procrastinate Or turn in our papers late We are studying advanced biology Music, History, and some Psychology Economics, Poli. Sci. We give them a college try Afterword: We will finish here next year that is, if we persevere in our attempt to get by with a passing grade And with luck we just might find That the future we x27;ve designed Will be aided by the lessons of today We have sung in styles of old as the story is retold of traditions from the time of Jason Lee. But our look at days of yore just reminds us what x27;s in store for the class that places last in Freshman Glee. Finale: We know where we are today We have seen the past As the stars show us the way We know our dreams will last We can see the stars right now. The Yellow Brick Road Words and Music by Crystal Mills Class of 1983 Somewhere over the rainbow, there is a pot of gold; The finest of its treasures, are the tales that we x27;ve been told, Of Ice cream cones, and candy canes evening strolls through lover x27;s lane, high school dances, first romances, and love that lights the way . . . CHORUS: And now we follow the Yellow Brick Road; Where it leads us no one knows; But there x27;ll always be a rainbow, shinin x27; through our cloudy days; Someday we will find that dreams are made of gold, But for now, well keep on followin x27; the Yellow Brick Road. Sometimes dreams are shattered, and crumble at our feet; But we always keep a steppin x27; movin x27; to the rainbow beat. The hard times and good times, have made us what we are today; It x27;s time to leave the past behind and time for us to say . . . That we can follow the Yellow Brick Road; Where it leads us, no one knows, But we x27;ll always have a rainbow shinin x27; through our cloudy days. Someday we will see our dreams were made of Gold, But for now we x27;ll keep on followin x27; the Yellow Brick Road. We x27;ll always think of Willy U., The times of change for me and you; We x27;re headin x27; for that pot of gold, And we x27;ll keep on steppin x27; and followin x27; the Yellow Brick Road . . . Yes we x27;ll keep on steppin x27; and followin x27; the Yellow Brick Road. Your Heart Will Find The Way There is a sunrise on the way Deep in my heart I feel the day The breezes of the night blew out my candle in the wind And all alone I feel the dark around me pressing in It x27;s hard to hold on through the night When searching blindly for the light I x27;m not sure where I x27;m going but I do know where I x27;ve been And I know if I can come this far I x27;ll make it to the end Words and Music by Pam Jackson Class of 1984 CHORUS: Can you feel the joy inside you Well just let the feeling grow Though tomorrow x27;s so uncertain Your heart can always know there x27;s a morning dawning for you. A very special day So keep on the Road you x27;re walking And your heart will find the way INTERLUDE: Can you feel it? Can you feel it? Deep inside you? Let it grow There x27;s a morning Dawning for you There x27;s a sunrise Shining just for you There x27;s a new day And it x27;s your day Let its light overflow.
