'ff' Quik -we This year s farce of the season See How They Run by Samuel French was indeed a great success. After long, hot grueling practices after school, on Sat- urdays and over Easter vacation the payoff of satisfaction for each member of the cast proved that all the work was indeed well worth the effort. It was worth memorizing lines, getting cov- ered with grease paint, missing dinner, turning in homework late, and staying up till all hours of the night. At times, it was doubtful whether the production would ever come through with members forgetting lines, missing cues, and laughing hysterically as the director looked on, tearing her hair out, and muttering obscenities under her breath. Finally the line came, cues were taken and nobody laughed lwhen they wer- en't supposed to.l See How They Run Cast Penelope ............ Jill Miller lJr.l Rev. Lionel Troop .....

The theme, Colour My World, using all the colors of the rainbow, gave decorators a chance to use their ingenuity to the best of their abilities.
