Choir Receives
III Rating Tuesday
In Choral Review
Twenty-four White Deer Choir
members participating in concert
and sight reading competition in
Amarillo Tuesday, March 25, at the
Amarillo Civic Center, received a
Division III rating in both concert
and sight reading competition.
The judging was done by Mr. Jim
Casey, Mr. Robert Young, and Dr.
Ray Moore. Tb,e critique emphasiz-
ed die need for a continued, well-
integrated twelve year choral pro-
gram to include music theory, sight
reading and music operations. “A
fine choir that looks real nice,” was
Mr. Young’s comment. “Obviously
some attention to reading is evident
in the choir and learning situation,”
was one of the comments of the
sight reading judge, Mr. Donald W.
Png.
“Lamb of God,” “Now.,Glad of
Heart Be Everyone” and “David’s
Lamentation” were presented under
the direction of Mr. Bob Burkart.
Mr. Burkart is a high school instruc-
tor teaching biology, chemistry,
trigonometry, physics, elementary
analysis, and choir. Mr. Burkart is
sponsor of the local Science Club
this year and is making his home
in White Deer.
Out of 28 area schools, there were
84 entries; AA and AAA schools par-
ticipated largely. Lefors, Vega, Gru-
ver and White Deer were the only
small schools participating.
Mr. Burkart, choir director, com-
mented on the choir, “They looked
nice, they behaved very well, and
they sang pretty good, considering
I directed without music for the
first time.”
Mr. Bill Davis, choir director at
Pampa High School, conducted a
choral clinic on March 13. He and
NEW SUNFLOWERS
This big, double blossom be-
longs to Sungold, one of the
jiew kinds of sunflower.
Say the word “sunflower” to
'the average gardener and he
immediately conjures up a
'vision of a 15-foot-tall plant
with huge, single, yellow blos-
•::soms.
Gardeners in the know no -
Uonger think that way. They
Sfe familiar, through the seed
catalogs, with the ornamental
sunflowers of today.
While the seeds still furnish
food for chickens or birds, the
plants aren’t huge and the
flowers are not necessarily
yellow.
So, if you’re looking for a
hedge or background plants,
try one of these:
Red and Gold hybrids have
•single flowers of bright red,
tipped with gold and on 6-fpot
j stems.
| Red (just one word) has blos-
soms of varying shades of red:
. brick, bright or crimson, scjlid
or in combination with yellow.
This same strain also has
yellow flowers suffused with
red. Plants grow 5-6 feet high.
Double-flowered kinds include
Chrysanthemum-Howered, with
6 to 8-inch-wide blossoms that
look like their namesakes, bn
plants nearly seven feet tail. ‘
And Sungold, lower-groov-
ing, only to live feet, with
golden-yellow blooms.
Two dwarf varieties are par-
ticularly useful. Dwarf Sunadki
looks like the tall variety and
also has big flowers, but grows
only 15 inches high.
Teddy Bear forms bush-like
plants three feet tall but each
individual bloom may reach f.v:
inchcs in diameter. !
Teentime Partytime
by 'BUtq Q
When the teenagers are coming, think big. Plot your party
refreshments, then double up on quantity. And to please their
bottomless appetites, how about a batch of Fun Doughnuts? Or
a double batch maybe? With an array of do-it-yourself frostings
and toppings, which is what makes Fun Doughnuts fun. The
teens frost them themselves while sipping Mulled Apricot Nec-
tar. Real groovy, Mom. The doughnuts you can make ahead, you
know. Then cool and freeze in plastic bags. On party day, thaw
in freezer wrap. Or if you’re in a hurry, remove from wrapper
and thaw in 325o oven about 15 minutes. Now let’s run through
the recipes.
FUN DOUGHNUTS
2 cups New Bisquick
2 tablespoons sugar
54 cup milk
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
54 teaspoon cinnamon
54 teaspoon nutmeg
Fun Frills (right)
Heat salad oil (3 to 4 inches)
• • in heavy saucepan or deep fat
fryer to 375*. Mix all ingred-
ients except Fun Frills until
smooth. Gently smooth dough
into a ball on lightly floured
cloth-covered board; knead 10
times.' Roll Vs inch thick. Cut
with floured doughnut cutter.
Drop rings, 3 or 4 at a time,
into hot oil. Fry about % min-
ute on each side or until gold-
en brown. Lift from oil with
fork; drain on paper towels.
Makes about 1 dozen.
ten of his students returned Mon-
day, March 17, to help the choir pre-
pare for UIL. They were very in-
strumental in the showing White
Deer made in Amarilo.
Mrs. Carson took the W. D. choir
to the contest in 1966 where they re-
ceived a Division IV rating. In 1967
there was no choir. In 1968 Mrs.
Fun Frills: Set out several
kinds of Betty Crocker Ready-
to-Spread Frostings and bowls
of chopped peanuts, flaked co-
conut, chocolate shot and col-
ored sugar. Guests frost and
decorate doughnuts as they eat
them.
MULLED APRICOT NECTAR
1 can (46 ounces) apricot
nectar
J4 lemon, thinly sliced
2 cinnamon sticks
15 whole cloves
8, whole allspice

all ingredients; heat to boiling,
stirring occasionally. Simmer
5 minutes; remove from heat.
' Cover and allow to stand ' 30
minutes. Strain; serve hot.
Makes twelve 54 cup servings.
For munching, serve hot pop-
corn
Dalton directed the choir, but felt
she could not take the choir to the
contest after having no choir in
1967. Mr. Burkart has taken the
choir to contest after three years
without UIL guidance and mater-
ial. A Division III, therefore, is
something in which the choir and
the community can take pride.
