Early and Ball steal laughs The notes of the 1940's musical South Pacific sailed through the auditorium April 29 and 30. It was obvious that all the hard work and dedication of the actors and crew had paid off by the sound of the audience's thunderous applause. The story basically centered on two romances: the first between Ensign Nellie Forbush, played by Amy Donnellan, and a handsome French painter, Emile DeBec- que, played by Greg Allen. The two ran into their share of problems, among them the fact that DeBecque had two Poly- nesian children. Their saga ended happily when Emile returned from a dangerous military venture, and Nellie finally realized how important he was to her. The second romance occurred when a young American lieutenant, Joe Ca- ble, played by Pat Rice, landed on the South Pacific island. A native woman, Bloody Mary, played by Julie Ball, im- mediately set her sights on the officer for her daughter, Liat, played by Jenni Goldsmith. Liat and Cable fell in love. Cable, however, decided that he could not marry Liat because she was a Pol- ynesian. The show was a dramatic comedy, with comic relief provided especially by Ball and Early. Taking the lead in this scene is Steve Herbst Orchestra member, Nate Earl, hangs loose after some serious trumpeting during the play. Rob Leffler takes a breather after a crucial scene in South Pacific .

Who’s got the time? Time. Some consider it the fourth dimension. Some have too much of it, while the majority of people have too little of it. Even so, the fact still remains that everyone's life revolves around it — being on time. Some use it to their advantage. Others often curse it. In high school, time is bells, and if the student has not mastered the bells, then he she is in for a lot of trouble. Nobody really wanted to be tardy. It was just that the students' desire to go to school on time was overridden by the desire to sleep or have a relaxing lunch period. Sometimes tardiness was unplanned and the student was not at fault. The homeroom bells rings. Brent Johnson has an excuse in hand. Ms. Marty Henshaw, attendance officer, stamps an- other late note. Brett Leukart, T.J. Snyder, Matt Kent, and Celene Rhoten wait in line to get excused.
