Q S 59 JOHNATHAN TELLS MORTIMER that he has to leave, as Dr. Einstein, played by Shaun Robbins, looks on. DIANE SMOLEN LOOKS on at the play she is direct- ing for the Coronado Fine Arts Department. 28 Arsenic and Old Lace by Shawn Hensley Photos by Mark Nagasawa The production of Arsenic and Old Lace is a suspenceful mystery-com- edy about two supposedly innocent old ladies, Abbey and Martha Brewster. Feeling sorry for their lonely roomers who have no family, they simply give them some elderberry wine laced with arsenic. Their mentally unbalanced nephew, Teddy, who thinks he is Presi- dent Theodore Roosevelt, buries the victims in the cellar, which he be- lieves is the Panama Canal. Mortimer, Teddy's brother, discovers his aunts' bad habit of giving their roomers poi- soned wine and frantically tries to cure them of it. Johnathan, the third brother, and his partner, Dr. Einstein, come for a visit with plans to stay, realizing that his aunts' home is the perfect location for his business . As it turns out, the old ladies have bumped off as many people as Johnathan. Arsenic and Old Lace was the first Production of the year for Coronado. It was well attended on the dates of No- vember third through fifth. flnsawicz and 0011 Looe

44 by Paige Barnes Photos by Ross The collection of students at Coronado are like variations on a theme. Teenagers are unique unto themselves, yet within the popula- tion of Coronado there are various groups. Individuals may find their niche if they wish. Classes compete for spirit awards at pep assemblies, while clubs conduct activities on the mall, and serve the community. Activities range from selling wishes to dress- ing up to promote spirit. The choice of participation is left up to each student. Most, however, find that it was as much or more fun than they expected after joining in. Any day a stranger could walk onto Coronado's campus and see students dressed from sweaters to shorts, new wave to preppie, and beach bum to high fashion. Even with these differences life- time friendships develop through shared experiences. We will have shared and stored many memories to be brought out again at future class reunions. OUR PERFORMANCES OF today are always JEFF CRISWELL AND Gary Martin show their spirit shaded by the dreams of tomorrow. Pictured is a for the color shout during a pep assembly. Bentley. 30 Student Life
