As the announcer paused, everything in the stadium came to a standstill, until it was announced that Valarie Foster was to be the Home- coming Queen. I couldn't believe he actual- ly called my name. I'd never been so excited in my life, said Valarie, remembering the excitement. I looked at everyone's faces and saw their smiles, and I knew that it was my name they had called. After the game the thrill was not over. Everyone still had the traditional Coronation Ball to look forward to. The Ball, held on Saturday night, was considered a success.

Students Revive Bus Stop When a howling snow- storm forces a bus just out of Kansas to hole up at a Road- side cafe, the weary travelers pour into Grace's Diner to wait it out. All roads are blocked. As the time passes, the stranded travelers find time to learn about them- selves. Cherie, a young nightclub entertainer, is the passenger with the most to worry about. She's been pursued and kidnapped by a 21 year- old cowboy with a ranch of his own and the romantic methods of a headstrong bull. Bo, the cowboy, is ready to sling Cherie over his shoul- der and carry her alive and kicking all the way to Mon- tana. As a counterpoint to the main romance, Grace, the proprietor of the diner finds time to develop a friendship with the bus driv- er. Dr. Lyman, a middle-aged scholar comes to terms with himself, and Elma, a young girl who works at the diner, gets her first taste of ro- mance. William Inge wrote the de- lightful play, and the Gar- land Theatre Department under the direction of Diane Leeman revived it. In the production of Bus Stopf' Grace, portrayed. by Amy Knox, warns Elma, Michelle Kronmiller, of the ways of men. Fall Play! 17
