Snoopy tries to steul a kiss from Potty, who would kiss him if it weren ' t for his fuzzy face. ' Peanuts ' Fill Gym with Music Music, song, and a lot of laughter filled the gym, when Elmhurst ' s first musical, You ' re a Good Man Charlie Brown was presented. Musicals are considered rather difficult to do in a high school usually because of the lack of interest or talent. But the cast did an excellent job of portraying each character. Linus, the philosopher of the gang, attempts to solve the problems of the world as he also copes with ridding himself of his security blanket. His sister Lucy con- stantly tries to teach him of the wonders of nature. In the meantime, she nags poor Charlie Brown about his faults and trys to correct them as his psychiatrist. In- nocent little Patty, who thinks Snoopy ' s sweet and would like to give him a kiss if it weren ' t for his fuzzy face, contributes to Lucy ' s tormenting of Charlie Brown. Schroeder, who continues to be chased by a lovesick Lucy, remains the rather quiet one of the gang, content to just sit and play Beethoven on his toy piano. Cursed by his fuzzy face, Snoopy, (alias World War I fighting pilot), pursues the evil Red Baron from the top of his doghouse. Last but not least, poor old Charlie Brown never succeeded at anything he tried to do, from flying a kite to playing baseball, kicking a football or playing checkers with Lucy. The life of a child ' s world can be rather difficult, but they do understand problems. In Lucy ' s search to solve Charlie Brown ' s problems, she states, Yes, it ' s ama- zingly true. For whatever it ' s worth Charlie Brown, you ' re you. 4 Cast during choir rehearsal: Front: Snoopy- Scoff Nichols. Schroeder— Bill Ponyard. Bock: Soll y-Kelly Schoeph.

Schroeder reflecls on the thought thot Beethoven must ' ve had it nice. Linus adds the final A-men as he attempts to write a book report on Peter Babbit. With two men on and two outs, Charlie Brown, having one strike to go, wonders why this always has to happen to him. Charlie Brown, I thought up some new strategy for you. Why don ' t you tell the other team that we ' re going to meet them at a certain place, only it isn ' t the real place, and then when they don ' t show up we ' ll win by forfeit. Isn ' t that a good strategy? asks Lucy as Charlie Brown can ' t be- lieve it. 14 Ploy
