KC By ЕЗ B Tradition triumphs Homecoming's durability was put to the test since many students felt spirit lor homecoming was fading. This theory Was proved wrong as mos! students displayed enthusiasm for the week's events. Festivities kicked of” with an- nouncement ol king and queen can- didates and progressed through the week with slave auctions, hush days, a dress-up day, and the crowning of Stacy Bartz and Joe Gibbons as homecoming royalty. At the Friday morning pep assembly athletic teams put on their traditional skits, two of which showed the athletes’ carnivorous tendencies. First, the boys’ cross-country team blended up cold beans, ice cream, katsup, prune juice, and live grasshoppers and drank it to the disgust of many. Then, Troy Nesbitt shocked large numbers of students when he stood amongst fellow foot- ball players and bit the head off a live carp. Nesbitt compared, “It was sort of like biting into 'Freshen up' gum. Excitement peaked as the football team rolled over sixth ranked Cedar Falls 17-13. Captain Bill Beavers sighted enthusiasm, preparation, and the desire to go out and win” as important aspects contributing to the victory. Student Council sponsored the dance, “Rock n' Roll High School, following the game. Dance coor- dinator Lisa DesEnfants exclaimed,” Ihe music was great, the decora- tions went over well, and I think mosi people found it a nice way to end homecoming.” Uppe r left: HOLD STILL.

Greed torce The Visit, the fall drama production, Was a tale ot treachery, revenge and lost love. The plot concerned the return of Claire Zachanassian (Mary Gruber) to her poverty-stricken hometown Gullen, Germany. To return the townspeople to prosperity, she promised them one-billion marks provided they kill her former lover, Anton Schill (Eric Zytowski). Claire believed he betrayed her when she became pregnant by him and was driven from town. At first the Burgomaster (Joel Manatt) refused the offer but gradually greed over- took him and the villagers. Noticing a new-found affluence in Gullen, An- ton began to accept his fate. He was later killed by the townsmen even after a plea from the teacher (Matt Buckingham) to refuse the money. The Visit was a play of emotions that d abandonment of morals was presented with minimum scenery to accent the characters. It used innovative lighting and sound effects to present scene and mood changes. also The serious plot didn't appeal to everyone. It was kind of morbid. The actors were good but the play wasn't very cheering, said Johanna Hanson. Dave Johnson felt otherwise. I was proud to be part of The Visit because it was the difficult sort of play that's rarely produced at a high school. Left: WARY. Anton (Eric Zytowski) fears betrayal when patrons, expecting money of- fered for his death, buy food on credit. Below: SPEECH. Hoping to get money, the Burgomaster (Joel Manatt) compliments Claire (Mary Gruber) on her generous nature while butler Bobby (Dave Johnson) waits. Below left: SINISTER. The blind men (Chris Wass and Zak Klaas) follow Claire (Mary Gruber} into town to entertain her.
