Sports VOLUME 1, ISSUE 3 PAGE 5 Orchestra By: Ramsie Barney

Last week the Hurricane High School’s Orchestra had their annual yearly Halloween concert. The concert went very well and the orchestra played great. They have now began learning new Christ- mas songs to play at their Christmas Concert in December. Kayla Larson, a senior here at Hurri- cane High said, “Orchestra is a lot of fun. I have made some friends and memories that I will never forget.”

The sophomores play in the Advanced Orchestra, while the juniors and seniors play in the Chamber Orchestra. Larson also said, “I love the music we get to play in the Chamber Orchestra because it’s more challenging and fun.” The orchestra works hard throughout the entire year perfecting and learning new songs. The students put a lot of time and hard work into trying to play their best. So make sure to come out and support them through- out the year.

They found a clinical head.com trial that Emily qualified for that involved taking inac- tive HIV T- cells and injecting them into Emily’s body. They didn’t know if the treatment would cure her cancer, or just slow the cancers development. "What we are trying to do is retrain the immune sys- tem to recognize and kill tumor cells." Said Dr. June. "The virus has been re-engineered so that it can't cause disease anymore but it still retains the ability to reprogram the immune system so that it will now attack cancer cells." Within a day or two of the treat- ment, Emily’s condition dramatically decreased. A miracle happened and the next day Emily was bet- ter. She was strong and aware. A few days later, her cancer had disappeared completely. The inactive HIV T- cells attacked the cancer cells in her body much faster than anything else ever had and there were no longer any signs of cancer in Emily's body.

First of all Congratulations!

Figure out which one makes you smile and laugh the most, and the one you can be yourself with, You don't want to be someone completely different just for the person you think you like! You should feel com- fortable and happy with the girl you are with; you should get butterflies every time you see her even if you just barely saw her 5 minutes before! It is never a smart idea to drag two girls along especially be- cause that is not right. Girls are amazing and beautiful and they should always be treated with respect even if they are rude and you think they don't deserve it. -Sincerely, Delilah
