Laughs could be heard all over town when the Brush drama dub presented An Evening of Comedy on March 17 and 18.

In When Shakespeare’s Ladies Meet, several of Shakespeare’s women who were heroines, come to give Juliet advice about her romance with Romeo, but instead they end up getting advice themselves from Juliet. In Double Date a mix-up between two guys and two girls trying to get dates for a dance leads to big trouble. In Quiet Please two brothers in the Ozark Mountains haven’t talked to each other in ten years. A church minister tries to get them to be friends again, but the person who finally gets them to make up is a pushy sodal worker whose car is broken down. Surviving... PLAYS 9

BHS Sends Two to Internationals! Are you interested in the molecular structure of an arthropod? If you are, a science fair project is for you. A science fair project takes a lot of long hours and hard work. When Brenda VanDonselaar was asked why she put so much time and dedication into her project she replied The projects I do I am interested in. It's personally rewarding.” The fun- niest thing about her project was, “it dealt with cockroaches. They had ba- bies. I didn't expect them to. I taped the cage shut so they wouldn't infest the school.
